"I had electric heat and wanted to change to a heat pump. Joe, Ocean State Air's sales rep gave me a very quick proposal and hooked me up with Rise Engineering to get a $3000- rebate from National Grid and have an energy audit done. National Grid paid 90% of any insulation upgrades needed. They had a six week backlog and set a date for the installation 1 1/2 weeks before the work was started. They arrived on time with a sizable crew. They originally said that the installation is usually finished in 3 days. It took 3 days plus 1 hour on the forth day. They mad an effort to keep the house as clean as possible. All work was carefully done so that the work looks neat and no damage was done to the home. Communication was good. They didn't have an in-house electrician and gave the option to hire my own or to use someone that they worked with. The electricians they hired were personable and did a very good job. The heat pump operated without a hitch. 2 years service was included with the job and Mitsubishi, the manufacturer, offers a 12 year warranty."

"We had Chris replace a decades-old gas furnace and electric water heater, as well as install central air conditioning. We talked to a few professionals in HVAC, and Chris seemed to have encyclopedic knowledge of it all. At a very fair price, Chris spent two days having the old stuff professionally removed, getting the new stuff (AC) wired up, and all the new equipment installed. This was a problem-free project from start to finish, and we would strongly recommend Chris to anyone with similar needs."

"We are customers of Superior Comfort. We are in our 70's, so we have had our share of experiences with customer service and warranty policy for all different types of purchases. Just wanted to tell anyone looking for an HVAC company why we chose Superior Comfort. From the first friendly phone call, and many subsequent related phone calls, to the sales representative meetings, the po lite, neat installation of equipment teams and compliance with the warranty guarantees, Superior Comfort turned out to be indeed Superior! After almost a year, all went well, but when there was problem, we contacted them for assistance. They came as soon as they could schedule an analysis of what was happening and conducted an impressive investigation of the problem. Within a most reasonable amount of time, their technicians worked nonstop in the most inclement weather completing what had to be done to comply with the warranty at no cost to us! I Superior Comfort is a Keeper!!"

"This was the best service with 2 highly qualified gentlemen. They were both knowlegable and friendly. They arrived 20 minutes after the initial call which was at the end of their day. They could have gone home for the day like the bigger companies did but instead they stopped on their way home and serviced my central air condition system in the middle of a heat wave. Unlike the other companies that I called who couldn't respond for 3 to 5 days even after I explained I had an infant to keep cool. If you're looking for a reliable company MTS is where you should shop"

"Mike and his team at Premier are exceptional. I hired them to remove the old oil burner and window air conditioners and replace them with heat pump systems. I received quotes from several companies but Mike and Premier were the only ones who offered me options based on their extensive expertise. It was clear from the beginning that they were skilled and knowledgeable about all aspects of HVAC. Iâ m very pleased with their installation and subsequent support with respect to filter change etc."

"I have nothing but good things to say about Philip Mills, his crew, and his company, Cassana HVAC. I wanted to install heat-pumps for central heat and air in my large home, and I solicited a few bids. Philip responded promptly to my request to visit my home and provide a detailed estimate. His price was quite competitive, the work started on time, and he and his crew did an excellent job. Indeed, I am so impressed with Cassana HVAC that I am now using them to work on other systems in my home. I highly recommend Philip Mills."

"The entire central air conditioning job was completed under the allotted time. Peter and his team were extremely professional, knowledgeable, thorough, left no mess behind, and their price for this job was very reasonable. I was so impressed that I scheduled him to go out and replace my daughter/son-in-law's two oil fired furnaces in the same week. I would highly recommend All Phase to anyone looking to upgrade or replace their mechanicals. Great job Peter. Thank you for changing my outlook on contractors, who many times, never keep their promises, and provide sub-par work! Thank you!!"

FAQs for air conditioning projects in Barrington, RI

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.
