"

We discovered our air conditioning was not cooling (less than 10 degrees difference coming out of the vents) and called during a hot spell to have it serviced.  We got an appointment for between 9 AM and noon 2 days later, not bad under the circumstances.  Gary called the day before leaving a message to confirm the appointment.  Rick showed up half an hour early, which was great...  no waiting around for the appointment.  He checked out the system and discovered a small leak in the coils.  Since the system was 17 years old, he discussed options.  The cost of Freon has been going up, so it could cost several hundred to refill it.  The system was at the end of its life expectancy and had been riddled with issues.  It was an early model Carrier which had been known for leaks and other issues.  Since it looked like a slow leak and we could not do an install any time soon, I suggested that we just refill it and look at replacement at a later time.  He seemed to think that it should hold for a year.  He had been out about 3 years before to refill it, so that seemed like a good estimate.  He gave a rough estimate for a new system and we will call at a later time to get a complete estimate. 

 I appreciated his punctuality and professionalism.  We got an honest assessment and not a lot of pressure to buy a new system.  This is an honest company which does good work and we will be sure to get a bid from them when we need to replace the system.

"Our experience was excellent! George, the owner, assessed our situation, which was needing a first-time new HVAC System, and gave his recommendations. We had good communication throughout the process. They were diligent, knowledgable, and efficient workers. In 30 years of being in Sacramento, we have never had a central air system. No more enduring the heat! We are very pleased. All at a very affordable price. Thanks!"

"My air conditioner stopped working tonight. I have a heart condition that requires a cool house. Juliano came out at 9:30pm and fixed the a/c. He was professional, courteous and personable. He explained what the problem was and how he was going to repair it. Most of all, he established trust with me, which is the most important quality that I look for when seeking out companies I want to hire. Romano HVAC gave me A++ service, and I am so grateful that my home is once again comfortably cool."

"Excellent customer experience from beginning to end. Alex was very professional, honest, and not aggressive for my business. Huft provided $4,000 in rebates and a $1,600 promotional credit for an electric HVAC system upgrade! The installers were prompt, expedient, and considerate to not make a mess. The workmanship was great in the interior attic and for the exterior condenser. They cleaned-up afterwards and left no trace or trash. They even ran diagnostic tests after installation and provided the written results with follow-up 6 months later to inspect and make any adjustments. I would highly recommend Huft Heating and Air Conditioning for a new HVAC install."

FAQs for air conditioning projects in Antelope, CA

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.
