"AC Review When my AC quit, I called my Home Owner’s Warranty. They assigned a service provider, who said the condenser along with the furnace had to be replaced. They gave me a quote that seemed high, but it came with a “90 day price match guarantee”. I checked Angie’s List to get more info. Brent called immediately, and I told him what I needed. Based on my explanation, he gave me a ballpark estimate that was far less than the other bid. The HOW’s contractor was ready to start the same day. We were hot, in a hurry, and had the price match guarantee; so we told them to go ahead. Brent said he would still write a proposal for us if I gave him the specs. I sent a list of the work items with the model no. of the unit, but Brent did not carry that model. He would have to call the manufacturer for pricing info; so could he just quote the equipment he had. I thought it was important to have the same model for a valid comparison. Brent took the extra time to get the pricing, and still did not charge for the estimate. When I received Brent’s proposal, I submitted it for the price match. At one point the provider agreed to return the difference between Brent’s bid and the final amount I had paid but they refused to account for the HOW allowance, which I believed they received from the HOW company. The next day they called back and said they would not honor the price match after all. They claimed the bid I submitted was not “legitimate” rather, it was just a copy of their proposal and the technician had not actually been onsite. Again Brent was willing to come to my home and give me another estimate. Above is the short version with just the main facts. There were many calls and text messages, and Brent was extremely very helpful the entire time. If I ever need any AC work in the future, I will hire Brent. I wholeheartedly recommend Air Specialist!"

"These guys aren't salesmen, they are honest brokers in the field. They don't push unnecessary stuff, like others, they respond to what you need. Ronald is always available to answer questions, and is very good at describing the process and/or limitations. They will also follow-up after the work is done. Hire them, you won't regret it. My house is like being inside a refrigerator now when I run my air conditioning"

"Excellent service from the start to the end of the project (replacing house AC/furnace unit). Great pricing! Good-quality products! The owner (Jose) was very responsive, gave free quote with several options tailored to the local conditions, happy to listen and discuss various aspects of the project. He quickly responded to my additional questions and requests and even gave me some upgrades for free. The crew was professional and completed the work as scheduled, including some additional work (fixing disconnected duct, improving AC drainage, etc.) and cleaning. Definitely recommend this company."

"Air Heating & Cooling repaired ducts, replaced all grills, installed larger ductwork, bigger air supply vents in large living room & installed a new ceiling return. They drywall sealed unneeded return openings. Team came at 8am & worked diligently to install a complete HVAC system. They cleaned up any mess before they left. Jose and George really listened to my concerns of insufficient air flow in my 1978 home and made improvements. My home feels so comfortable and cool now. I look forward to less expensive electric bills. Thanks to God for their hard work. I highly recommend them for HVAC installation. A+++"

"Fantastic. Noticed when I got home from work one evening that the first story of my home was not cool. AC had been on all day, but air temp was 78 degrees. I called Cooling Technicians and Adam came to diagnose the problem the next morning. His troubleshooting was very thorough and the problem was quickly isolated to a faulty compressor. I received a fair quote for the parts and labor, gave the okay, and they were ordered and installed. That was a few weeks ago and I’ve enjoyed ice cold air since and have experienced no problems with the new unit. Adam really knows his stuff and does great work and a quality install. Cooling Technicians installed and upgraded HVAC at two of my office buildings over the past few years and the systems have worked flawlessly. Thanks Adam and the Cooling Technicians team."

FAQs for air conditioning projects in Houston, TX

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.
