Strategic sealing and treatment to eliminate standing water, prevent rust and corrosion, and keep pests from nesting in your system during dormant months.

Pre-Season System Prep

Scheduled winterization service between October and November, timed perfectly before Leander's first hard freeze typically arrives in late November or early December.

Service Process

Our 5-Step Winterization Process

Pre-Winter System Assessment

We begin with a detailed inspection of your entire cooling system, checking for refrigerant leaks, worn components, electrical connections, and any vulnerabilities that could worsen during Leander's winter freeze-thaw cycles. This ensures we address problems now rather than discovering them when you need cooling in April.
