"Have had issues with boiler furnace for last 10 years. Had it replaced by another HVAC company 8 years ago and every year since have had issues. Decided to get it totally replaced once again last year. This time it was clearly a more professional job. Have had zero issues since. Quality work. Quality product. Very fair price tag. Would highly recommendâ ¦."

"They did an excellent job. They were honest, and hardworking installing our central air and furnace. That's not even the best part a strong power surge happened in our area while on vacation. They tried their best to fix it while we were gone . They replaced circuit boards but two more were affected. They kept us updated. Shipping made it so it wasn't fixed when we got home but as soon as the parts got here they came. Then the power in our area went out so they couldn't finish . Chester himself came as soon as the power came on and stayed until it was fixed. He had to take the circuit board back to suppler because it was shipped without being programmed ( flashed) so he went and got a device to do it himself.The point is he stayed a long time in extreme heat which he didn't have too. We are extremely grateful to Chester and his crew. We highly recommend this company for being professional, trustworthy and doing a fantastic job."
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.
