"Daniel is always on time and calls to let us know that he is on his way. He is efficient friendly and very professional. We have been using Short Pump Heating and Air since they installed our Carrier furnace and Daniel was part of the installation team. We couldn't ask for a better combination."

"I had a problem with my air conditioning. I contacted Wes he assured me that a technician would be at my residence by 8:00 AM this morning. A young man from the Company named Dillon was on time. He accessed the situation, fixed the issue and explained everything in detail. Dillon was polite, courteous, knowledgeable and cared about my issue and respected my home. Thank You Dillon. I strongly recommend Taylor Construction Services Heating & Air, you wonâ t be disappointed. Iâ m so glad Iâ m associated with this fine company."

"We were in a desperate situation. My mom is 90 and on oxygen and my husband is on dialysis. Our A/C went out in the a.m. on Wednesday, 9/7/2016. Another company came out mid-day Thursday, 9/8/2016 to work on unit. We thought the unit was fixed; but, went off around midnight. Tried all day on Friday, 9/9/2016 to get someone to fix our unit, no success. At 3:00 pm, when our situation looked dim, we contacted Old Dominion Heating and Air and spoke with James. We informed him of the problem and our medical concerns. He said he would be at our home at a specific time. James arrived 10 mins early, diagnosed the problem and fixed our unit. We were so thankful. James saved us on a Friday evening. I/we would recommend him without given it a second thought. We plan to use his services for our twice per year annual maintenance. Outstanding customer service!! Thank you James!"

"Very impressed with how much they cared for my friend, a paralyzed veteran, who was so suffering from the heat and not able to use some of his medical equipment. Upon finding this out, they suggested that they could get a window unit to get him through and that they would not charge him to come give him the estimate for the air conditioning... very honest and caring company... we cannot say enough good things about them! Wish we could give them 10 stars for truly caring about our paralyzed veterans....thank you, Fresh Aire!"

FAQs for air conditioning projects in Ashland, VA

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.
