Your heating and cooling system does more than regulate temperature — it protects indoor air quality, energy efficiency, and your family’s comfort. In North Texas, where summers test air conditioners and winters demand reliable heat, regular HVAC inspections prevent breakdowns and costly repairs.
Whether you’re buying, selling, or maintaining a property, Sentinel Home Inspections provides comprehensive HVAC evaluations that give you peace of mind — before problems start or deals fall through.
The Dallas Fort Worth real estate market moves fast. Multiple offers, waived contingencies, and compressed timelines are the norm. In this environment, a thorough real estate inspection isn't just recommended—it's essential for protecting all parties in the transaction.

Deals with inspection issues
The Dallas–Fort Worth climate pushes HVAC systems to their limits.
Dust, humidity, and temperature swings cause premature wear — especially when systems aren’t regularly checked for airflow or refrigerant balance.
Our inspections identify:
Clogged filters and restricted airflow
Improper refrigerant charge or leaks
Faulty thermostat calibration
Aging or inefficient equipment
Blocked condensate drains or corrosion
Missing insulation or duct air leaks
For homebuyers, a professional HVAC inspection can uncover issues missed by basic home inspectors — saving thousands in unexpected repair costs.
We verify system age, performance, and efficiency to help buyers avoid hidden expenses and negotiate repairs or replacements confidently.
Homeowners rely on our seasonal tune-up evaluations to confirm safety, airflow, and energy performance before the extreme DFW temperatures hit.
We measure airflow balance, duct leaks, and temperature variance to ensure every room is cooled or heated evenly.
We check control systems, breakers, and connections to confirm proper function and compliance with current codes.
Even brand-new systems can fail efficiency tests. Sentinel confirms correct installation and refrigerant handling before your builder warranty expires.
Sentinel’s inspectors know the DFW market inside and out — from the slab foundations of Fort Worth to the attic ventilation systems in Frisco. Our deep local knowledge helps identify region-specific issues like:
Foundation shifting due to expansive clay soils
Attic heat buildup and roof deterioration
Drainage and grading problems from heavy storms
Aging HVAC systems common in older Dallas suburbs
We tailor every inspection to the area’s unique housing styles, from historic properties in Arlington Heights to new builds in Prosper.
Our signature Sentinel Shield 360™ approach blends precision tools and technical expertise to ensure total system integrity.
We test cooling and heating cycles under load conditions to confirm temperature differential and overall performance.
We check for contamination, filter quality, and humidity balance that affect health and comfort.
Thermal imaging detects duct condensation, attic heat gain, or blocked returns unseen by traditional methods.
We calculate efficiency metrics and identify simple upgrades (like duct sealing or insulation) that can cut utility costs dramatically.
You receive a same-day report with temperature readings, photos, and recommendations prioritized by urgency and energy impact.
Sentinel Shield 360™ turns every inspection into a complete protection system for your investment and peace of mind.
