Short answer
We serve Terrytown, ZIP 70056, beside Gretna on the West Bank. Homes here are mostly from the 1960s and 1970s subdivisions, and the common calls are heat pumps acting up, frozen coils from starved airflow, rusting air handlers and thermostat upgrades that need the right wiring. The line is answered 24/7, and urgent calls go first.
Subdivision homes from the 1960s and 1970s
Terrytown grew in the same West Bank wave as its neighbors, with most suburban housing built in the 1960s and 1970s. The air handlers in homes like these often sit in a hall closet or the attic, and years of condensate and humid air rust their cabinets and drain pans from the bottom up. When the pan is rusted through and the coil is leaking, replacing the air handler with a matched unit is usually the sounder repair.
Airflow is the other recurring issue. A dirty filter, a closed register or a crushed return can starve the coil until it freezes, and the meltwater then overflows the pan. We check airflow before refrigerant on every no-cool call, and when a new smart thermostat is part of the fix, we wire it correctly for heat pump control and backup heat.
