"HALO is amazing! I reached out on Angi’s for help with our A/C as it went out on a major holiday - no cool air on a blistering 4th of July is a grim prospect. I received several automated calls and messages from other companies but Steve called personally to try to help. He was able to come right away, professionally and courteously diagnose the problem, and went out of his way to help get us the part we needed to repair the issue immediately. He took time out of his holiday to help make ours more comfortable and did it all with kindness, honesty, and respect. I can’t thank him and HALO enough. We signed up for their maintenance plan so we’ll be all taken care of in the future. If you’re looking for a professional service with unmatched expertise and a heart, HALO is for you. Thank you Steve!"

"An excellent experience with TNT; they were prompt and professional; quoted the job and did not try to 'upsell'; very knowledgeable on the plumbing aspects of the job. I had a somewhat complicated Water Treatment situation - they knew exactly what to do. I would call them again for more work."

"I had another company come out and condemn my furnace and quote me a huge price tag to replace it. I decided to get a second opinion and had cool ducts come out. The service tech Nick was very knowledgeable and was able to repair my 2009 furnace with a fraction of the cost. He was fast and was able to get the part that day and have my furnace back up and running! Great job!"

"Nice guy, did a great job repairing my furnace. Quick and reasonable on the price."
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.
