H2: Boerne: Hill Country air, two housing eras on one map
Boerne is the Kendall County seat, about 30 miles northwest of downtown up I-10, and it holds two towns in one name: the old German settlement along Main Street and Cibolo Creek, and the master-planned growth spreading south and east toward Fair Oaks Ranch. Alamo Air Care works Boerne on the northwest corridor days, and most Boerne calls are seen the same day.
The two eras fail differently. The older stock, limestone and frame homes from the early 1900s through the ranch decades, runs retrofit systems, long duct paths, and well water country habits: acreage, outbuildings, and condensers that sit far from the house on long linesets. The newer plans run big two-story volumes, zoned systems, and equipment installed street by street in the same few years, aging in formation. Elevation buys Boerne a few degrees and a breeze, and its houses still work their systems hard from May to October, with more heating nights than the city below sees.
Tell Gwen which Boerne you live in, old town or new plan. The usual suspects are different lists, and arriving with the right one in mind is worth an hour.
Guidance for Boerne: ask how far your condenser sits from your air handler. On acreage, the lineset between them is part of the system's health, and a diagnosis that ignores the distance ignores the house.
