Austin facts that shape the job

  • Austin Energy offers a rebate on a qualifying ENERGY STAR heat pump water heater of at least 40 gallons replacing a unit 10 years or older; online applications are accepted within 90 days of purchase, but gas water heaters do not qualify.Source: austinenergy.com, checked 2026-10
  • Homes near Austin face about 1,442 heating degree days in a typical year, per NOAA's 1991-2020 normals. Measured at the Austin-Camp Mabry (TX) station. The heating load here is higher than in 10 of the 56 other cities we cover; San Antonio, TX comes closest. Heating load like that also means long stretches where pipes in outside walls and crawl spaces sit near freezing.Source: NOAA NCEI U.S. Climate Normals 1991-2020, station USW00013958, checked 2026-10
  • FEMA's National Risk Index rates cold wave risk in Travis County, TX as relatively moderate. The same cold wave rating applies in just 5 of the 53 other cities in this network. During a cold wave, let a faucet on an outside wall drip and open the cabinet doors under sinks.Source: FEMA National Risk Index (December 2025), Travis County, TX, checked 2026-10
  • Austin Water warns that a leaky toilet can waste about 200 gallons a day and tells customers to drop food coloring in the tank: color reaching the bowl within 30 minutes without a flush means a leak; the page also links a video on replacing the flapper valve.Source: www.austintexas.gov, checked 2026-10
