Cedar Hill FAQ

How often should I clear leaves from around my outdoor unit in fall?+

Checking every couple of weeks during heavy leaf-drop season is a reasonable habit, more often if you have large trees nearby dropping a significant volume of leaves.

Can leaf debris actually damage the unit, or is it just unsightly?+

It can be a real functional issue, not just cosmetic. Restricted airflow from debris buildup affects the coil's efficiency, and prolonged wet debris contact can contribute to corrosion over time.

Do you see this issue often in Cedar Hill?+

It comes up regularly across our Cedar Hill service calls, alongside the rest of Cedar Hill ISD. Call (817) 935-8540 if you'd like us to take a look at your specific system.
