"Shawn is the HVAC guy everyone deserves! It’s hard to find someone in this industry who is both fair and trustworthy, but Shawn operates with integrity. He helped us fix a unit that another company installed as a new unit. A different company also attempted to correct the botched installation, but the underlying problem was never resolved. What should have been a straightforward new installation turned into a costly nightmare, with us repeatedly paying for labor and having to completely refill the Freon twice within the first two years. What was a HVAC disaster for any homeowner, Shawn was able to remedy. He has earned our trust, and he will be the first person we call for any future HVAC needs. As our experience clearly demonstrates, not calling Shawn from the beginning would be a mistake we would never make again. Unfortunately, that lesson was an extremely expensive one for us! We can’t thank you enough, Shawn! Shawn gets the job done right, give him a call!"

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.
