Don’t Ignore the Need for Heating Repairs
Over the next few weeks, we’ll see temperatures creeping up into the 70’s. It’s certainly a sign of the warmer weather to come, but it doesn’t mean that we’re out of the woods of winter just yet. With nighttime temperatures still regularly dropping into the 40’s, you’re definitely going to be using your heating system for the immediate future.
Don’t be fooled into complacency by the fact that we’re heading into the warmer time of the year. Stay on the lookout for these warning indicators, and count on our technicians to keep your heating system up and running properly. Even late in the season, you must never ignore the warning signs that HVAC repair may be necessary.
Common Heater Symptoms
The first step in ensuring that you are able to heat your home reliably, effectively, efficiently, and safely is to invest in a quality heating system and to have that system expertly installed by trained professionals. You must also schedule routine heating maintenance. This provides your heating technician with the opportunity to thoroughly inspect your heater and to tune it up as needed on a regular basis.
Even when you follow these steps, however, there is no guarantee that you are never going to need heating repairs. In fact, it is pretty much a certainty that you will at some point. Scheduling those repairs promptly will help to limit the extent of any damage to your system. That is why you should be able to spot the symptoms of a compromised heater.
- Reduced heating output. Of all of the signs that your heater is in trouble, a heating system that is no longer heating a home effectively is probably the most common. If the air coming from your heater feels cool, or if cools spots start to pop up in your home, contact us right away.
- Increased heating costs. The cost of heating your home is obviously going to fluctuate from month to month, depending upon how much you are actually running your heating system. If you notice a big spike in your heating costs, though, despite not having changed your heating habits in a substantial way, then it is possible that your system is experiencing a drop in efficiency due to repair needs.
- Loud operating sounds. A system like electric radiant heating will operate pretty much silently. If you are using a more common system, like a furnace, heat pump, boiler, or ductless mini split, though, you are going to hear some operating sounds coming from your heater. If you notice that your heater is much louder than usual, or is making strange new noises, contact us right away for repairs.
- Strange odors. We are not alarmists, but we do want to stress the fact that a malfunctioning heater can potentially lead to safety issues. If you ever smell gas or burning coming from your heater, you should contact a repair technician — or, in the event of gas, the appropriate authorities — immediately. At the beginning of the season you may smell a bit of dust burning off, but anything beyond that demands immediate attention.
Schedule your heating repairs with the professional technicians at Goettl Air Conditioning & Plumbing.

Update: 12/3/24 - Jacob is great. He fixed the leaking parts on water softener and also checked the water heater to see what can be done with that. He is efficient and very knowledgeable and reviews everything so you understand.

Update: 7/25/24 - had some more work done today. The folks who come to service, install, etc. are great. They know their job, are very efficient and friendly. Today it was Justin and Luis who were installing a new filter system. Looking forward to not have to change filters every month. Thank you, gentlemen, for all the hard work in the heat.

They said I needed to replace my a/c. I was given a choice of 5 units. I liked that the 2nd most expensive would balance the temperature in my house. I get full west in my living room in the afternoon. It is always 10 plus degrees hotter on my sofa, than rest of house. So I paid a fortune and it isn't doing what he said it would. They came back and added another vent to my living room. Better, but still not what I was told. I could saved $10k and got the cheaper model. Don't think I have much recourse to get this fixed. The technicians are very good, too bad their salesmen and products are not up to the same standard.


Blake was absolutely amazing from start to finish. He was friendly, personable, and genuinely took the time to listen to my concerns. He explained everything clearly, provided sound and honest guidance, and never once made me feel pressured. His professionalism and genuine care made it easy for me to trust him and feel confident in moving forward with this company.
Technicians like Blake are the reason customers stay loyal—he definitely deserves a raise. I’m truly blessed to have encountered him today. Thank you, Blake, for your outstanding service!










Thank you!!!




Original order of checking thermostat. And why heat would not kick on right away
It was taking several degrees to heat up the house. Air conditioning works great.
He went and checked thermostat and suggested a new thermostat. $800 for two installed. 👀
He then checked furnace in attic.
The fresh air exchanger was pretty dusty and he could clean it for under a hundred $. I said go ahead because exchanger runs ten minutes per hour to keep fresh air circulating. So price was $99. Still a lot for cleaning a screen.
It seemed to have worked in conjunction with thermostat because it’s been working properly since he left.
Im glad I didn’t spend $800. But only $228 .
Hope thermostat continues to work well
Thank you Jackie.
I still think prices are very high. You can buy and install a thermostat yourself for $175. With a $75 rebate. That’s quite a difference.


I also want to add that Taylor came to service my unit and she was amazing. My dog is usually sketched by most people and she liked Taylor. That's a huge plus.









Thank you Ian for my maintenance today!
March 2, 2024

Andrew is an outstanding representative of the company.
Thanks

We had Edgar come out to inspect our new home today and he did a very thorough inspection. He made sure the unit was checked so when the warranty company comes out we have all information possible. Amazing customer service and very personable
Edgar came back after a warranty inspection was done on the home by the install company. He found errors and was amazing at documentation of the issues. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.
Peter and Josue came out today to do an additional check on our unit with humidity issues. The weather was not conducive to having the outdoor pressures checked and they were very thorough with an interior check. Very professional and knowledgeable.






















I think the guy that was supposed to be assigned to me had problems. My appointment was from 9-1 and Austin was assigned to me at 1:30 and Drove over an hour to get to me.
Now that's 💜
11/24/25 Seems this is an update not its own post. Adam was out to repair our filtration system. No muss no fuss and it was fixed. Awesomely competent guy






Job done quickly and efficiently. Thank you





A special shout-out goes to Pablo, our technician. He was on time, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. Pablo took the time to explain everything he was checking, walked me through the condition of each component, and gave helpful tips on how to keep our system running efficiently year-round. His attention to detail and pride in his work really stood out. Because of his professionalism and the overall quality of service, Goettl has definitely earned my trust and future business.
Highly recommend Goettl HVAC—and if you can, ask for Pablo!

I have seen Goettl vans all over town and so I called them.
Got appointment right away and the Technician, Jef Eusepi, took care of our problem.


Call Goettl and was able to get us on the schedule due to a cancellation they had.
Jef Eusepi our tech was fantastic.
He explained everything and showed us pictures of what he was doing and fixing.
Would definitely recommend this Company and Jef.

He was knowledgeable and friendly and was able to flush the tank and get my hot water flowing again. Thanks again...




(Oldest)Jared was great. Got here promptly and fixed it quickly. Lifesaver on a 100+ degree day!












On time, clean, and very thorough with any potential issues.
Thank you.







Chris R came out for our Sadie Membership inspection and review before the cold comes here in TX. He did a fantastic job and really knows his stuff. Thank You!






Mike provided truly exceptional service. From the moment he arrived, it was clear he was extremely knowledgeable; he quickly and confidently diagnosed a very tricky issue that we had with our pipes, explaining everything clearly and answering all of our questions with patience. He also installed our new water heater and did an outstanding job. If you need a plumber who gets the job done right the first time, we highly recommend Mike. Thank you!






The Goettl team has been very professional and helpful to me as their customer. Thank you, Kelli Stoika.
PS… If there would’ve been 6 stars on the scale, that’s what I believe they should’ve received.

Thank you,

This past week our service technician was Andrew Morgan and he is such a friendly, knowledgeable, and skilled technician. He spent time making sure the job was done correctly and he explained it in terms that I could understand. Not only is our unit functioning even better than before, I also gained knowledge of how the system works.













I highly recommend Goettl as this is the second time l've used them in less than a year. (2 seperate issues)... and I highly recommend them..anytime and anyday.
They have exceeded to top any expectations I could have ever had with any company.


Jerry also noticed our water pressure was low after flushing toilet then trying to wash hands in bathroom sink which were so he suggested a new pressure regulator as we have had a new better water conditioning system installed. We now have the best water pressure even when using a shower and kitchen sink faucet at the same time. Also Jerry is a master plumber and we appreciate his knowledge and experience. Will definitely call Goettl again when a plumber is needed.

Darean Guerra today. He arrived on time and took the time to explain what he was going to do. He was very knowledgeable which helped me trust what he was doing. He left his work area clean. I am very pleased with his work.









The company is installing a tankless heater and the customer service is outstanding.
I recommend Geottl to all!


They made sure my carpet was covered and when they were all through they cleaned up perfectly
I would recommend your company to anyone looking to put in a new air conditioner.
Thank you so much for all you did for me.
Sincerely, June Jones

And I would highly recommend the company and the quality technicians like Jarod.
Jarod is the go to if you want excellent
Customer service and communication for any AC related issues. He is very knowledgeable, personable and trustworthy. I am grateful and satisfied.







They listened to my issue, were very through, checked for leaks, etc. I’ve lived in Lakeway for 30 years, used MANY local plumbers - but Goettl will definitely get all my business moving forward. HIGHLY recommend!
Ty, Wil & Adrian!

Everyone from the Goettl sales representative Christian, Tech / Advisor Josias recommended a HVAC A/C and Heating system replacement. Technicians team Veronica and her partner.

Jeremy Canchola serviced our mini-split today with the usual Goettl efficiency and professionalism.
Highly recommended!
