"Prepaid membership in Comfort Club includes annual furnace and humidifier check in the winter and air conditioning check in the summer. Visit was pre-scheduled; technician emailed prior to visit and he arrived on time as scheduled. Work was very professional and the tech answered any questions that I had. Very satisfied with the visit."

"Hired this company to install new furnace and air conditioner. I was impressed with Mike the salesman, he worked with me to make sure I got the best system that I wanted for our house. My biggest concern with picking a company out to do the installation. Any retired HAVAC person will tell you that you can buy the best products, but if not installed right you are going to have problems. Don and Dwayne did an excellent job making sure everything was done right the first time ( no shortcuts ). Company stands behind their installations with a guarantee, that is important. I like that everything start to finish was one price, all listed on estimate before work began. I will continue you use this company for regular service and highly recommend them. They want to earn your repeat business not just make a quick buck off of you. Thank you John Berea,Oh"

"I had a gas furnace, A/C and thermostat installed. I went through a long process deciding who to hire. After checking credentials, reviews, testimonials and interviewing four contractors, I chose Brandon Heating and Air Conditioning. Adam came out and explained everything from load calculations to the install process. The technicians were professional, courteous and polite. They wore shoe covers, put down tarp and worked diligently until the job was complete. They did a thorough clean-up. I highly recommend Brandon Heating and Air."

"The weather is getting hot and of course that is when my air-conditioning unit started to not provide the cool air I needed. That is when I immediately placed a call to Zoned Comfort Heating and Cooling. I have used them before and they have been dependable and responsive to an individual's needs for cooling and heating. Andy, (the technician for Zoned Comfort) arrived at the time promised and immediately began to diagnose the problem with my air-conditioning unit. He explained all he was doing as he worked. He is a diligent professional with great courtesy, a pleasant demeanor and one who is a great representative for Zoned Comfort. He wasted no time getting the work done efficiently and effectively. He made sure the job was done to his satisfaction, and mine. I would recommend Zoned Comfort Heating and Cooling to anyone needing such service. When I replace my "ancient unit" I plan to call on Zoned Comfort for this service also."

"We had the BEST EXPERIENCE with the vents cleaned in our home. They changed the filter for us that we had at home. It was appreciated. They also cleaned the dryer vent. That was also very much appreciated. The air in the house is fresh now. You actually notice the difference. They are professional. The service provided was efficient, friendly and a job well done. When they completed their work everything was cleaned up and put back. We highly recommend them !"

"MAP Construction delivered in a pinch. We consulted MAP for a second opinion on whether to replace a part or the entire HVAC unit when we lost our air conditioning in the high heat this summer. Not only did we receive sound advice that did cost us more in the short run, the advice will save us even more in the long run. Their attention to detail, customer service and nimble pricing made us feel more like family and not just a customer. Did I mention we have two German Shepherds? They are creatures of comfort. When they are comfy, life is spectacular. Remy and Otto would also like to extend their thanks to MAP for making the inside temperature cozy again (photos included). Will always trust MAP with all our future needs, we hope you will too."

"Matt was by far the best contractor we have interacted with since moving into our new home. He quickly responded, called before coming out and showed up when he said he would. He cleaned our AC unit and gave us a ton of useful information on how to cool our home better. I will definitely use Modern HVAC for our HVAC needs."

FAQs for air conditioning projects in Kent, OH

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.
