šØ Homeowners & Landlords, take note! šØ
We recently got a call from a landlord whoās been dealing with a water leak inside the ceiling and walls for over a year š±. After paying for a new unit installation, they discovered water was leakingābut the original contractor? Completely ghosted them.
Over time, 5 different contractors came out to try and locate the issue, with no success. Frustrated and still without answers, the landlord finally reached out to Air Today.
š After a full assessment, we poured water on the opposite side of the unitās drain pan. The unit drained properlyābut the water started running down behind the wall and even came out of an electrical outlet! ā”š§ Clearly, something wasnāt right.
Weāll now need to cut into the sheetrock to find the broken drain line and make the necessary repairs. This kind of situation is dangerous and costlyāand unfortunately, could have been avoided.

Hereās your takeaway:
Before you hire anyone, verify they are licensed, insured, and provide guaranteed workmanship. You can check directly on the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) website. Just search by the individualās full name or company name to confirm their credentials.
š If theyāre not licensed, youāre taking a big riskānot just financially, but also with your property and safety. Getting ghosted is a real possibility when you donāt do your homework.
