Why Texas HVAC and plumbing companies need a dispatcher that never sleeps

Texas summers push air conditioners to the limit, and the February 2021 winter storm showed how fast pipes can burst when temperatures drop. HVAC and plumbing companies across the state face long peak seasons, fast-growing suburbs and customers who will call the next company if nobody answers.

Why Texas customers call

  • No-cooling emergencies during triple-digit heat
  • Frozen and burst pipes during winter freezes
  • New subdivisions and builder warranty calls
  • Hail, storm and flood damage
  • Slab leaks and water heater replacements
  • Customers who prefer Spanish
