Austin HVAC Inspections

Heating and Air conditioning systems come in two forms split systems and package units, and both are common in Austin, Texas. Heat pumps, used primarily in commercial structures, are still present in the residential sectors.

Package systems are usually mounted on the roofs. Split systems are typically found with the A/C units in the side or rear yards, and the air handlers either in the attic (most common) or in the garage. Heat pumps can be found on roofs or side yards, although installers have gotten creative with their installation locations.

HVAC systems are visually and functionally tested, with the exception of heat pumps if the temperature is over 85 degrees (manufacturers recommendations), or air conditioning if the temperature is below 65 degrees. Delta temperatures (temperature differential) are tested for a 16 to 20 degree threshold functional range. As you can see there is a lot that goes into a HVAC inspection so having a qualified home inspector that you can trust with the expertise and knowledge to lead you in the right direction is invaluable.
