International Comfort Products CAC042AKA1 Expansion Valve
Almost all AC systems have an expansion valve that allows the coolant to expand into its normal low-pressure gas form from a high-pressure liquid form. A split-system AC unit would produce no cooled air if the valve was not present
Major clues the AC expansion valve is in need of replacing
- The outdoor AC unit takes its sweet time to appropriately bring down the temp in the house
- Cooled air is not as cool as you are accustomed to as it comes from the air conditioning unit
