Erby Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Cost - benefit analysis. If I was going to live there a long time, I'd replace the expansion valve. If I was going to sell in a year or two, I'd replace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Worth repairing, in my view. TXV isn't expensive, especially when compared to compressor. Bought one for my own 3 ton system for about $100 (wholesale) several years ago. Marc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ron1940 Posted May 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Thank you so much. Larkeys quoted a price of around $1000 for valve replacement. Will call for more quotes tomorrow but will definately repair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zarajohn Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 Hello, Lennox offers a solar powered controlled heat pump. The solar modules give the power need to work the heat pump. The owner can buy the Sun Source? Solar Ready alternative and add as many Lennox solar modules as wanted. Thanks Zarajohn@ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
