I recently had Houston Admiral service my air conditioning unit for annual maintenance. The tech's (ALEX) focus was on trying to sell me something I did not need; not on providing a service. First he tried to sell me contacts for the outside unit and a regulator (not needed). Within a week my unit went out. This time I had the contacts replaced. He still talked about me needing a regulator and a new motor for the outside unit. The motor on the outside unit still operated as required. A week later the unit is out again, only to need the inside blower motor supposedly. Now my annual service has turned into a $1,700.00 bonanza for them. Even after selling me a new blower motor the unit did as before; shutting off after start up. This leads me to believe the blower motor was not needed. It turns out all that was required was a new capacitor, installed by different technicians. They made an lame excuse as to why ALEX did not replace it. The unit is running fine for now. Avoid this company at all cost. I see why the had to leave San Antonio. Learn from my mistake. This company has a failing rating with the BBB. Good luck.
