Most Bandera AC failures come down to a handful of parts, and we carry all of them on the truck. We diagnose flat-rate, tell you what is wrong in plain English, and most repairs finish the same visit.
No guessing, no ordering it and coming back next week. The price is in writing before we start.
Call (830) 587-5790South Texas summers are not subtle, and Bandera runs its systems hard. When one quits, it is almost always one of these.
The most common single-point AC failure we see. A part the size of a soup can that dies in heat - usually the hottest week of the year, when the attic is 130 degrees and the system has run flat out for days. We carry capacitors in three ratings, so the repair takes under an hour and the house is cool before dinner.
If your AC slowly lost its cool over weeks, you have a leak. We do not just recharge it and leave - recharging a leaking system is a subscription, not a repair. We locate the leak, quote the fix, and recharge once it is sealed. It is usually the evaporator coil.
The contactor is the electrical switch that starts the compressor. When it burns out, the outdoor unit sits dead while the air handler pushes warm air. Parts on the truck, usually under two hours - and being licensed for electrical too, we check the whole start circuit while we are in there.
A clogged condensate drain trips a safety float and shuts the system off - it looks dead but it is protecting itself. A dirty coil makes the system work twice as hard for half the cooling. Both are same-day fixes.
Dude ranches and rental cabins have to stay cool for a steady stream of visitors, and a no-AC weekend is a stack of bad reviews. We keep lodges and cabins comfortable, set up reliable systems and remote-manageable thermostats, and catch problems between guests with maintenance plans.

When Barb noticed a loud, metallic rattling coming from her heating and cooling system in San Antonio, she reached out to Moorhead Service Company for help. Technician Robert Rodriguez arrived to track down the source of the noise and diagnose what was causing the unusual sound. He worked professionally and thoroughly, taking the time to explain what was going on so Barb felt confident and well cared for. She was happy with the honest, knowledgeable service and the peace of mind that came with a quieter, properly running system.

“Old river cabin with no ducts in the back. They put in a mini-split and it is comfortable for the first time. Drove out from Seguin and were honest about timing.”
“On a well out on the ranch and the power drops in storms. They sized a generator for the pump and AC. No more scrambling when the lights go out.”
