"Had a very difficult time finding a company that was respectful of the urgency/nature of my need to have the AC replaced given the 90 degree weather we were having. Had recently moved into a place and just found out it wasn't working. These guys came out to take a look and had the job done within 24 hours. Can't say much for the price, since I didn't have time to shop around, but at a time in need this couldn't be beat. I've had many home projects done over the past couple months, and It's refreshing to see someone take pride in their business and put their customers first."

"Krane provides the type of service that we all wish every contractor would provide. I selected them on Angie's List because they were one of the top ranked providers. I soon learned why. It started with something that didn't start... namely, our furnace, which I was preparing for the winter heating season. Uh oh. But maybe (I hoped) it would be some small part that's easily fixed. I called Krane on a Tuesday morning and was told their head technician was in the area and they could take a look at it that afternoon. I pushed down my instinct to keep futzing with it (good thing, as you'll soon understand) and the tech showed up right on time. It took him less than 5 minutes to discover that the flames were doing something called blowback, which could jet flames and carbon monoxide back into our house. (Glad I didn't futz with it!) He explained this was caused by a hole in the heat exchanger. He didn't take it personally when I disappeared for a minute to Google that. He also informed us that our furnace was incorrectly installed, had too many BTU's for the house, as well as being incredibly inefficient (I definitely suspected that.) It was installed in 1999 and rated at 70% efficiency. Sitting down with my wife and I, he recommended a high-efficiency Bryant furnace. Normally, we're not people to make large purchases without a 3-bid. But, we made the purchase based on three things: He didn't try and sell us more than we needed - he told us our air conditioning didn't need to be replaced and we should run it until it died. He acknowledged that there might be a problem with running the exhaust lines, which even we could see. And his price was in line with what we'd found on Angie's List. Krane sent out a guy to measure for the piping the next day. He arrived on-time and left us with no worries. The installation took a whole day. It actually took place earlier than first scheduled due to a cancellation. The technicians were on-time and extremely cordial; despite us saying that they didn't need to put down drop cloths, they did anyway. Because the day was fairly cool, they closed the door behind them every time they went through the front door. They politely explained things when I couldn't resist going into the basement to "check on the progress." (Also known as: Seeing how a furnace goes together.) Three events from the day still stand out as demonstrating their great service. In the first, they were able to show me, without any grumbling, the rusted holes in the heat exchanger that had caused the furnace to fail. The second was when they informed me that our new hot water heater hadn't been installed with the proper chimney liner. I braced for an expensive extra cost, but it never appeared. They didn't change my price at all. Finally, one of the technicians found a problem with the air conditioning that was making it run inefficiently. He fixed it without any extra charge. At the end of the project, you couldn't even tell they'd been here. They took all the old furnace parts with them and swept the basement floor clean. And though they were clearly tired from the work, they patiently explained all the functions of the new thermostat to me. Overall, the entire experience was exceptional. They even brought the forms necessary to collect high-efficiency heating rebates from our local gas and electric companies. And Krane filed them on our behalf! The rebates will allow us to recover $450 off the final invoice price. We also used their Angie's List coupon to save $200 off the invoice. And they waived the cost of the initial inspection visit because we purchased a furnace. All those savings made it a little less painful. We would highly recommend Krane for their honesty, integrity and professionalism."

"I initially hired Zach, through a recommendation from a friend, to replace my hot water tank and ended up needing a furnace replacement. A week before I had my hot water tank replaced - the tank was still working at the time- I had another company come out to clean my furnace. They were able to clean my furnace, but told my one of my motors was going and gave me 4 different quotes, all quite expensive, to replace my furnace. A couple of days later, my tank started to go, which is when I called Zach. Zach did a great job replacing tank a price that was cheaper than another contractor for the same model. After turning on my tank, he also inspected my furnace, which was emitting carbon monoxide. The company that cleaned it a week prior never notified my of the issue. Zach was able to come out the next day and install the same furnace the other company quoted for much less. His people did a great job and left my basement cleaner than they found it. I would highly recommend their service."

"This company went above and beyond. From the estimate to the install of both a new furnace and air conditioning unit quickly after the estimate. We had been without heat for 4 days in December in Michigan. Glad to sleep in a home with heat again."

"Kevin was the professional that repaired my furnace. He is very polite and explained what was wrong and found the part that was needed. Once the furnace was repaired, he gave it a once over to make sure everything else was good. The repair was fast and what I thought was a good price. I was preparing to replace the whole furance, and was thrilled to only have to pay a fraction of the cost."

FAQs for air conditioning projects in Waterford, MI

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.
