Good to know in Houston

Houston is hot and humid most of the year, so air conditioners work hard from spring to fall. The Atlantic hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30, and heavy rain can flood streets and homes. In the February 2021 winter storm many homes lost power and had frozen pipes.

  • Plumbers: Before a freeze, know where your main water shut-off is, insulate exposed pipes and let faucets drip on the coldest nights: in the February 2021 winter storm many Texas homes had burst pipes.
  • AC & heating: With Houston’s humidity, a clogged condensate drain line is a common summer service call; change the air filter often during peak season.
  • Roofers: After a tropical storm or hurricane, take photos of the damage for your insurance before any repair.
