"Tom and his crew were fabulous. The most important thing was I completely trust him from day one. He was so honest and so quick. I called him he came out that day and within two days I had a complete new heat pump, air handler etc... I have had some medical issues and they never embarrassed me about the lack of repair in my home. What a great crew!!!"

"They called quickly and were able to come within hours, fitting me in at the end of there day at 9:00 pm. They knew what the problem was from my description and had the part with them. My heat pump was fixed in minutes. They wanted to see my furnace and saw it was covered with inches of dust and cat hair. Cleaning it out took longer than repairing the heat pump. That made such a huge difference in the function of the whole system. The furnace is quieter and cools faster now. While my unit is very old, they didn't try to scare me into a new system. But they did tell me about federal, state, and local power company rebates available when I decide to upgrade. I will most definitely pass there business cards on to my neighbors, and go back to them when I do upgrade. My indoor temp was 90 degrees and Jason was dripping sweat cleaning the furnace. Super nice guys. Smiling and friendly after a very hot and truly long day of travel and helping folks get their air conditioning working again."

"Service was great. Beau is very knowledgeable and even showed me how to operate and change the filters in my whole house filtration system. I will definitely use them again for my future plumbing needs."
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.
