"Excellent customer experience from beginning to end. Alex was very professional, honest, and not aggressive for my business. Huft provided $4,000 in rebates and a $1,600 promotional credit for an electric HVAC system upgrade! The installers were prompt, expedient, and considerate to not make a mess. The workmanship was great in the interior attic and for the exterior condenser. They cleaned-up afterwards and left no trace or trash. They even ran diagnostic tests after installation and provided the written results with follow-up 6 months later to inspect and make any adjustments. I would highly recommend Huft Heating and Air Conditioning for a new HVAC install."

"Can’t say enough wonderful things about this company…My wife
and I carefully researched 5 separate HVAC repair companies prior to narrowing
it down to two, of which we received bids on. We were impressed by the professionalism and pricing
of both, but are now absolutely elated that we chose Brower Mechanical.
We had a number of efficiency issues with our old heating
and air system, as well as some general health concerns with regard to air
quality. Mitch came to our home and
stayed for almost 3.5 hours diagnosing various issues (Technically it took him
all of about 30 minutes to locate the specific problems, but he took the time
and care to spend the additional hours educating us). Mitch was extremely knowledgeable, patient
and professional. He didn’t try to push
any product or sell any costly overhaul package. The solution he designed was specific to the
problems we were having and not some sort of bolt on solution. He gave us two great options, and we chose
the one that was a little easier on our pocket, which was the one he
recommended from the start (Who does that these days?).
The crew who came to our home to do the work were equally impressive
(Bob and Chris). These guys always
arrived on time, took the time to educate my wife and I on overall progress,
answered any questions we had, and cleaned up to perfection. These guys even came back out to reassess a
few items after the job was complete.
The home office even followed up with us after the job was
complete to make sure we were happy with everything.
Now that the job is complete, the improvement is absolutely
remarkable. It really has made our home
a much more enjoyable place to be on both hot and cold days.
We are sooooo pleased that we chose Brower Mechanical. Mitch, Bob and Chris are amazing!!!!

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.
