"Ken arrived promptly on a Sunday afternoon to repair my air conditioner that was not cooling. After having a negative experience with another company earlier in the day who tried to scam me into buying an entirely new $9500 system, Ken was able to diagnose the problem and fix it on the spot for a fraction of the price. He was professional, thorough, and explained everything in detail. I highly recommend Ken and A Breath of Fresh Aire, and I won't hesitate to call them for my future needs!"

"R.J. is a genius when it comes to AC repair. He was able to do what 4 other AC repair companies were unable to do, locate the exact area where my AC was leaking refrigerant. All the other companies (Unique, Badger Bob's, A/C Warehouse, and Air Handlers) documented on their service forms that there was a leak in the evaporator coil. All of them suggested first that I needed a new evaporator coil, but by the time I pay $2,000-$3,000 for the new coil, I might as well by a new AC unit. They all ended up trying to sell me a new AC unit. Unique wanted me to buy a unit for $10,441. The Unique technician noted on the service form that "he had found a leak in the evaporator coil. Due to the condition of the system and system going into a domino affect, I recommended to customer one of our comfort advisors about replacement of system." R.J. made a very complete and thorough inspection of the evaporator coil and could not find any sign of a leak. He then started checking the rest of the unit, which no other company did. They all stopped at the evaporator coil. R.J. noticed that the copper pipping that carries the refrigerant to the evaporator coil was shiny and oily. He removed some black tape that was around the pipping in one area and found a small hole in the pipping. Someone had done a poor job of soldering the pipe in that area. R.J. got out his soldering equipment and closed the hole. He then checked to make sure that the AC was working properly. To do the work, R.J. had to stay late on a Friday night and had no problem doing so. I could not thank him enough. R.J. is extremely knowledgeable about AC units. He is meticulous, diligent, clearly explains everything, honest, and very nice. I highly recommend R.J. If you want someone who really knows what their doing in regards to AC repair, goes out of his way to try to find solve the problem, and won't try to sell you something you don't need. R.J. is your man."

"Marcus is incredibly professional and personable. He fully explained the problem with my furnace in a way that was easily understandable. He located the part he needed, went and got it, and returned here in good time. He fixed my furnace and it is now working like new. Marcus is an asset to ABC. I also, as always, am impressed with and happy with service I received from ABC. They tell you up front what it is going to cost you and there are never any surprise fees. I would never use anyone other than ABC to maintain or repair my furnace, air conditioning, or plumbing."

FAQs for air conditioning projects in Bradenton, FL

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.
