"Clifton Hill did a great job. He answered our call and arrived quickly. I highly recommend his services. He has changed his business name to FilterMan Services. This was an extremely cold day and our furnace was lighting but blowing cold air. I began searching for emergency service providers. I received a call from Clifton and he said he could be here very soon. Long story short, He arrived and fixed our problem promptly. GREAT SERVICE!!!"

"Since we were soliciting quotes from multiple solar providers it was interesting to see how each of the teams calculated the size of system necessary to cover the home's energy needs and how they proposed addressing our home's overall power requirements (LED lightbulbs, more efficient appliances, etc.) We selected Solergy because of the overall package, which included an upgrade to our air conditioning system. The installation went smoothly and the level of communication was outstanding; kudos to our salesperson who was both professional and punctual, plus visited with us onsite on multiple occasions. We'd hire Solergy again."

"They are expedient on answering service calls. Our ac went out during the summer and they were out to next day to do repair it."
Most professional HVAC technicians require two to three hours to complete an expansion valve replacement. The timeframe depends on your unit's accessibility and whether additional repairs are needed. The process involves recovering refrigerant, removing the old valve, installing the new component, and recharging the system. Scheduling during less busy seasons may result in more convenient appointment times.
Operating your air conditioner with a malfunctioning expansion valve isn't advisable. Continuing to run the system could potentially damage other components, particularly your compressor, which is significantly more expensive to replace. If you notice performance issues like inconsistent cooling or unusual noises, it's best to have your system inspected before continuing regular use.
Expansion valves don't have a standard replacement schedule, as their longevity depends on system usage, maintenance frequency, and environmental factors. Regular professional maintenance helps identify potential valve issues before they cause system failure. Having your HVAC system serviced annually allows technicians to monitor component condition and recommend preventative replacements when necessary.
Refrigerant leaks require prompt professional attention. If your expansion valve is leaking, you'll likely notice reduced cooling performance and possibly hear hissing sounds near the unit. Addressing leaks quickly prevents further system inefficiency and avoids the environmental impact of released refrigerant. Your HVAC technician will need to repair the leak and recharge the system with the proper refrigerant type and amount.
Because many AC issues present similar symptoms, professional diagnosis is recommended. Problems like inadequate cooling, inconsistent temperatures, or strange noises could indicate expansion valve issues, but might also stem from refrigerant leaks, electrical problems, or airflow restrictions. A qualified HVAC technician has the tools and expertise to accurately identify the root cause and recommend appropriate repairs.
