Avatex Service Company serves River Plantation, the golf-course community from the late 1960s along the West Fork of the San Jacinto River south of Conroe. Two realities shape the work here: housing stock from the 1960s–80s with original-era wiring and insulation, and a documented flood history — including Hurricane Harvey — that makes equipment placement a first-order decision.

A 1960s golf community with a river at its back
River Plantation opened in the late 1960s as one of the Conroe area's original golf-course communities — colonial-styled homes along fairways, most built through the 1970s and 1980s, many still holding original panels, ducts, and attic insulation from construction.
The West Fork of the San Jacinto runs beside the community, and major flood events — most notably Harvey in 2017 — put parts of it under water. Post-flood repairs varied in quality, so we treat electrical inspection and flood-aware equipment placement as standard scope, not add-ons.
Flood-aware placement
Where a home has flood history, we relocate air handlers upward where the structure allows, set condensers on raised pads, and inspect low-lying circuits for latent corrosion before energizing anything.
1960s–70s electrical
Original panels and aluminum-era branch wiring need licensed inspection before new mechanical loads are added. That's Master Electrician work — permitted and inspected.
Original equipment past its era
Systems limping along on R-22 or decades-old furnaces cost double: repairs plus inefficiency. We show repair and replacement numbers side by side, and review anyone else's quote free.
Utility, rebates & permits in River Plantation
Conroe-area homes here are served by Entergy Texas, a regulated utility. Entergy's 2026 Distributed Products HVAC Program pays incentives on qualifying high-efficiency equipment (from 15.2 SEER2; heat pumps also need 8.5 HSPF2), scaling from $75 up to $1,075 by size and tier, through the equipment distributor (verified July 2026 in Entergy Texas's published 2026 program guide).
Jurisdiction in the River Plantation area spans City of Conroe and Montgomery County offices depending on the section — we verify which applies to your address and pull the correct permit. The federal 25C energy-efficiency tax credit ended for equipment placed in service after December 31, 2025, so utility programs are the main source of HVAC savings in 2026 (verified July 2026 against the IRS OBBB FAQ).

River Plantation questions we hear the most
My River Plantation home flooded in Harvey — what should I check now?
Three things: latent corrosion in circuits that took water, the placement of your current equipment, and duct condition. We inspect all three and plan any replacement flood-aware — air handler up, condenser on a raised pad.
Are there rebates for high-efficiency systems in Conroe?
Yes — Entergy Texas's 2026 program discounts qualifying 15.2+ SEER2 systems through the equipment distributor, from $75 up to $1,075 depending on size and efficiency tier (verified July 2026).
My 1970s River Plantation home has original wiring — is that urgent?
It's worth a licensed inspection before anything else. Original panels and aluminum-era circuits are safety and insurance issues, and they limit what new equipment can safely be installed.
Repair or replace a 20-year-old system here?
We show both numbers honestly. Age, refrigerant type, and flood exposure all factor in — and if someone already quoted you, our free second opinion reviews it with no pressure.
