Legacy Home Services, your local HVAC and Electrical contractor, exists to return respect to the home services industry in New Braunfels. Integrity. Honor. Service. Reliability. This Home Services company will distinguish itself from others by the virtues with which we conduct every business transaction. Legacy Heating & Air Conditioning Services, LLC started in February 2013 in Founder Chad Briggs’ garage. With a passion for serving people, Chad aimed to build an organization of individuals who genuinely care for the people in the community. A servant’s attitude was paramount, prioritizing respect for the customer and building a relationship rather than treating them like a transaction. Legacy quickly outgrew the garage through its stewardship towards customers and the community. In 2018, Legacy partnered with Trane Technologies to provide the New Braunfels community with the most reputable residential equipment. In October 2022, Legacy expanded by introducing the Electrical department and rebranding as Legacy Home Services, all while maintaining its focus on serving others. Legacy devotes its energy to become the #1 choice for home services in New Braunfels through its 5-star online reputation, loyal Legacy Family Plan Membership customers, highly trained and caring Comfort Technicians, and caring team of internal support team members. Above all, we care foremost about treating our customers like we would want to be treated, and work to return respect to the HVAC & Electrical industries in New Braunfels.
"Chris & Sam were an amazing team. They were right on time and got the work done very quickly and efficiently. They went the extra mile to answer our many questions and trained us on using our thermostats. They answered our inquiries re options on future expansion of our system. They made sure we knew how to properly use our system to optimize its capabilities. We are seniors, and not techies at all. They explained our 3-zone system to us in terms we could understand and even installed an app on our phones to remotely control our thermostats. Chris was so patient with us. What a great experience."

Unless you have advanced HVAC, plumbing, and electrical skills, hiring a pro is worth the investment. Improper installation can strain or even damage the furnace, leading to repairs that dwarf the cost of professional labor. Certified installers deliver a precise, code-compliant setup and help the system run efficiently for years.
Your whole-house humidifier choice comes down to budget and upkeep. Drum models cost less but demand frequent pad changes and vigilant cleaning to avoid mold. Flow-through units carry a higher price tag yet need less maintenance because water drains away rather than sitting in a reservoir. Decide how much ongoing work you’re comfortable handling before you buy.
Whole-house humidifier repairs average $230 but can reach $500, based on unit type, repair complexity, and local labor rates. Systems tied into extensive ductwork or large homes tend to cost more to fix. Routine maintenance, like the occasional pad change, cleaning, and inspection, helps you avoid those higher repair bills and keeps the humidifier working longer.
If indoor humidity regularly falls below 30%, a whole-house humidifier is a smart upgrade. Dry air aggravates allergies, chapped skin, and static, while ENERGY STAR recommends 30% to 50% year-round (30% to 40% in cold climates to curb condensation). If levels climb above that range, consider a whole-house dehumidifier instead.
A well-maintained whole-house humidifier lasts for 10 to 15 years. If yours is pushing a decade and performance drops or energy use climbs, start planning for a replacement. Upgrading boosts efficiency and indoor comfort, and an HVAC pro can confirm whether repairs or a new unit make better financial sense.
A whole-house humidifier is installed directly into your HVAC system and positioned near the furnace or air handler to maximize performance. It connects securely to both the ductwork and plumbing systems, ensuring complete integration. Hiring a professional guarantees a safe, efficient, and permanent installation that protects your system from future operational issues.
