"Ken arrived promptly on a Sunday afternoon to repair my air conditioner that was not cooling. After having a negative experience with another company earlier in the day who tried to scam me into buying an entirely new $9500 system, Ken was able to diagnose the problem and fix it on the spot for a fraction of the price. He was professional, thorough, and explained everything in detail. I highly recommend Ken and A Breath of Fresh Aire, and I won't hesitate to call them for my future needs!"

"My A/C crashed on Monday nite. Tuesday morning I got a list of pros from Home Advisor. Called the first two. They both said could come look at it on Thursday! It's 90 degrees outside! I called AM Aire and talked to Andrew. I was at my house about an hour and 15 minutes later. He liked at it and explained it needed a new motor. He would have to drive to Tampa and pick it up then come back. It was already 4:30 on the afternoon so I told him to come tomorrow. On Wednesday he showed up when he said he would and had it done and my house cooling again In 2 hours. My cats were happy again!"

"Robert was able to unclog the drain, fixed the disconnection pipe - although he missed the 1/2" piece that had fallen onto the floor. Then he was able to hear the freon flowing into the air handler when the fan was off, thus causing the coils to freeze up. Was installed a new contacter and fixed the problem. Charge was $32, which seems kind of high, but is was Sunday and he got the job done, so I am happy. He also quoted me on a new system."

"It went fine. Weathermakers installed my unit in 2015, and have gone above and beyond to make sure that it has functioned as expected. With service calls, they have always been punctual, thorough and pleasant to deal with. AC is very important here in FL, and I am extremely happy with Weathermakers."

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.
