Heating and cooling in Rockport
Post-Harvey systems
Many homes got new HVAC equipment in 2017 and 2018. Those systems are now several years into a hard-working life, and capacitors, fan motors and coils will start to need attention. Some were installed in a rush during rebuilding, so it is worth checking sizing, ductwork and drain setup if a system has never worked quite right.
Salt air on the bayfront
Homes along the bays and canals see salt corrosion on outdoor coils and hardware. Rinse regularly and choose coastal-rated equipment when replacing.
Second homes
Homes that sit empty for weeks need the AC to keep humidity down. A remote-reporting thermostat and a float switch on the drain pan help.
Storm prep
Secure outdoor units, add surge protection, and follow Ready.gov's guidance on preparing for hurricanes and outages (Ready.gov, Hurricanes). See the hurricane prep guide.

Rockport HVAC FAQs
Is my post-Harvey AC system due for replacement?
Probably not yet, but systems installed in 2017–2018 are at the age where parts like capacitors and fan motors begin to fail. A tune-up is a good idea.
How do I keep a second home from getting moldy?
Leave the AC on at a moderate setting that keeps humidity below about 60 percent, and add a float switch on the drain pan.
How do I protect my AC during a hurricane?
Secure it to its pad, turn it off before the storm, and have it checked after any flooding before running it.
