"Phil, the first person I met representing Air Now was just awesome. He Explained things, worked with me to get where I needed to be $ wise. He is a great reprehensive of Air Now. Jonny & Brandon did the installation. Poor guys worked in a downpour but got everything done in a reasonable amount of time. I checked with several A/C Companys and this is the one I felt the most comfortable with. I hope you will give them a try, I think you will be as please as I am. Thank you Air Now."

"After a leak the a/c would run but not cool off the house. We were very fortunate to have someone come out right away and address the problem. Parts needed to be ordered but they managed a temporary fix to keep the house cool and comfortable. They showed up in a timely manner once the parts were available and everything has run smoothly since. D&W is always polite and professional. I highly recommend them to everyone for a/c purchases and repairs."

"After checking on Angi and being contacted by Velocity Air Conditioning, Inc., I hired the company because my A/C was not cooling. Brandon came out that very day, on a Sunday. After determining that my very old A/C (2005) could not be repaired, I contracted with Velocity to replace my system - A/C, heat pump, and new thermostat. Gary came the very next day and installed my new system, and he checked that it was working properly. Both technicians were very professional, courteous and efficient. I would highly recommend Velocity Air Conditioning, Inc. Velocity does not even charge extra for coming on a Sunday!"

"Don was extremely helpful and worked with me to get this work done. He was easy to talk to and explained everything he did to make our home comfortable. I would not hesitate referring him to friends and family for their air conditioning needs. Work was done within time quoted and respectfully."
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.
