Freescale Semiconductor Inc

Freescale Semiconductor Inc sits in Austin, Texas and takes on HVAC jobs for houses around the city. The spot used to be the main office for the chip maker that split off from Motorola years back, but these days the work centers on air conditioning and heating fixes. Austin weather brings brutal summers that test every cooling unit, and the team deals with homes where old systems break down under the strain of constant high temperatures and sudden storms that affect outdoor parts. Local houses often face extra wear from the humidity that builds up in attics and crawl spaces, making regular checks on coils and fans a common need to avoid bigger failures when the heat peaks.

They handle routine maintenance on central air units, replace worn compressors when they fail during peak heat, and install new systems in homes that need better efficiency against the local humidity. Work often involves checking ducts for leaks that let cool air escape in attics, fixing thermostats that stop reading right after power surges common here, and sealing connections to keep units from short cycling. Homeowners call when the AC quits on the hottest days, and the crew shows up to get things blowing cold again without overcharging for parts or time on the job. Calls also come in for whole house fan repairs or adding dehumidifiers to cut down on mold risks that show up fast in the wet months.

The feedback from those who used the service points to inconsistent speed on response times and quality that does not always last through another season. Price gets mentioned as fair in some cases while communication leaves room for improvement when explaining what went wrong with the equipment. This adds up to the current standing that sits right in the middle for this kind of work in a tough climate. DIRT Score 3.18 from 24 reviews on Finds.

“Great company! During that time, I stayed at Colinas RV Park, and I’m still here because I fell in love with the place. Quiet, secure, and affordable—perfect for long-term stays. Highly recommend!”

“Wondered by like a crazy person and couldn't walk through their parking lot. I just wanted to get back to Minnesota after thinking it would be practical to walk to the what i thought was a 24/7 gas station from my hotel.”

“This used to be the headquarters of Freescale semiconductor which spun off from Motorola. The Motorola office used to be on Parmer Lane in north Austin before relocating over here. Traffic truly sucks from Georgetown to here and back during rush hour traffic. There's some people working here that live in Georgetown.”

“I am highly suspect of an organization (esp a semiconductor mfg) that posts paid reviews from 'local guides'. You are tanking your own company with deception.”

“First thing is you have to answer the phone. Have been trying for 2 days and your line is always busy. Hard to do business with a company that will not answer its phone”
