TXV Replacement on Lennox Unit | Hvac Life

In this video we demonstrate how to replace a Thermostatic Expansion Valve. Sometimes these valves do not open thus restricting flow to the evaporator. Systems of a bad TXV look like a system that is low on refrigerant. This is why it’s very important to look at everything when it comes to the unit. Always check superheat and sub-cool #hvac #hvaclife #hvactechnician

    I followed up my supervisor who diagnosed a txv and scheduled me to install it today. I was grinning at first when I saw every connection was flare or nut, but i trust braze more than flares these days =X Ty for the good content!

    I thought so too. Currently in the field, non mini, standard split or package units, I see lots of jobs successfully completed with no flow. Does that result in issues right away? Not that I've seen. Will it take a few years off the life of the system? Probably. I try to flow everytime. Buttttt the field thinks differently
