"It was a big deal. It was fine. He recommended that I get a brand new air conditioning system. The big deal was fine but the additional work was not fine. He said he would take 4 hours but he took more."

"I was really worried I would have to go a few days or even a week without cool air, but I called Dayco Systems that my friend recommended and I'm SO glad I did! They came out right away, after hours and fixed the unit. I highly recommend this company!"

"Jason came out to service my unit - he was very professional, explained the whole process and answered all of my questions. Very fair price. I have a 19 year old HVAC unit and Jason serviced it to the best condition possible and I will definitely be working with Comfort Solutions for when I need a new unit installed."

"Le's heating an air conditioner an refrigeration are very professional gets the job done an really se of tje best workers i seen in a long time"
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.
