AC and Heating Repair in Meadow Lake, Round Rock
Off Settlement Dr on the north and west shore of the reservoir
Meadow Lake is a neighborhood of about 420 single-family homes south of University Boulevard, off Settlement Drive. It wraps the north and west shore of the Meadow Lake reservoir, and Sandy Brook Drive and Gulf Way lead in.
Meadow Lake Homes
The census block group for Meadow Lake has a median year built of 2000, split almost evenly between homes from the 1990s (about 49 percent) and the 2000s (about 48 percent). About 82 percent are owner-occupied. Heat is more mixed than next door in Eagle Ridge: about 49 percent gas and 38 percent electric.
So a Meadow Lake street can have a 1990s attic gas furnace on one lot and a 2000s heat pump on the next. Both get service here: heat pump and heat strip repair and furnace repair. Homes from the late 1990s may be on their second outdoor unit.
The Reservoir and the Park
Meadow Lake is a flood-control reservoir behind Upper Brushy Creek Watershed Site 14 Dam, completed in 1966 on a tributary of Chandler Branch. The National Inventory of Dams lists the dam at 25 feet high and 1,559 feet long, with a 59-acre surface area. The neighborhood land was annexed into Round Rock in 1984.
Meadow Lake Park on Settlement Drive covers 76.5 acres along the water, with 1.35 miles of trail, a playscape, horseshoe pits and a picnic shelter.
Streets and Schools
The streets are named for fish: Walleye Way, Perch Trail, Bass Loop, Pike Path, Bluecat Way and Minnow Cove. Students are zoned to Union Hill Elementary, whose campus is on Gulf Way inside the neighborhood, then Hopewell Middle and Stony Point High. The Meadow Lake HOA covers the subdivision.

Meadow Lake Heating and Cooling Repairs
Meadow Lake's mix of 1990s and 2000s homes means a mix of repairs: capacitors, fan motors and coil leaks on cooling systems, igniters and flame sensors on gas furnaces, and defrost and heat strip problems on heat pumps. Attic drain lines clog here every summer the same as anywhere else in Round Rock, and the fix is a cleared line and a working float switch.
