"We ended up totally replacing our heating and air-conditioning unit and everything we have done in the house has been through ET Lawson and under a warranty plan through them. We wanted the same thing. Nothing against Michael & Son. He seemed very knowable."

"I had them in for a second opinion on what could be done to fix my air conditioner. The contractor I had before did not tell me the exact reason for the problem nor tell me he could fix it. They suggested the HVAC system be replaced. Parish immediately told me the problem and what could be done to fix my air conditioner. My System most likely will need to be replaced in a year or so and I was given estimates within a very short period of time that were very detailed. I had a great experience with them."

"I've been pleased with them. They put in our central air and I think they do a good job. I hear other companies come and do a maintenance check and they're less expensive, so I'd give them a B for price. My experience with them was satisfactory. They put in our central air we do pay them yearly for the maintenance checks of the system."
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.
