Ranch Homes on Large Allandale Lots

Allandale is known for large lots and mature trees. It runs from Burnet Road on the east to MoPac on the west, and from 45th Street north to West Anderson Lane, with Shoal Creek Boulevard and Shoal Creek itself running through the middle. Most homes are single story ranch houses set back from the street, with long hallways and a single central return.

A typical Allandale ranch house has a gas furnace in the attic or a hall closet with an AC coil on top, and a condenser in the side or back yard.

Heat pumps are less common here than in newer parts of the city, but some houses have switched to them or use electric heat strips, so those repairs come up too. A gas furnace that has sat unused since spring in a hot attic often shows dried, cracked pressure switch hoses or a dusty flame sensor when it first starts in late fall. Blower motors that spent the summer moving air for the AC carry that wear into the heating season as well. Long hallways in these houses also mean long duct runs to the bedrooms at the far end, and a duct that has pulled loose or flattened over the years leaves those rooms behind the rest of the house in any season.

Allandale Heating and AC Repairs

Gas furnace igniters, flame sensors, pressure switches and inducer motors
Evaporator coils that freeze from low return airflow
Attic duct runs that have sagged or split over the years
Condensate lines that clog and trip float switches
Condenser coils packed with leaves from big shade trees
Capacitors, contactors and fan motors on aging outdoor units

Big lots and big trees mean a lot of leaves, seeds and pollen around outdoor units. A clogged condenser coil drives up operating temperatures and wears out capacitors and fan motors faster.

Shoal Creek Boulevard and Burnet Road

Shoal Creek Boulevard is the main north to south street through the neighborhood, with Northwest District Park and the Shoal Creek greenbelt close by. Burnet Road marks the east edge, near the Brentwood and Crestview neighborhoods. Meritt HVAC Repair covers all of Allandale, from 45th Street to Anderson Lane.
