Replace a bad TXV valve and recharge AC system
This quote is for the repair of an older 2-ton Trane R-22 AC system, which includes replacing a faulty TXV valve and recharging the system with 407C refrigerant. The initial issue was the compressor not running due to overheating and low refrigerant, which also burned out the capacitor. The technician diagnosed a low refrigerant level and a "toast" TXV valve that was stuck open, preventing a simple recharge with R-22. - Scope of Work: Replace bad TXV valve- Refrigerant: Recharge with 5 lbs of 407C- System Type: Older 2-ton Trane R-22 AC system- Initial Problem: Compressor not running, shut off due to overheat/low refrigerant, burnt capacitor- Diagnosis: Low refrigerant, TXV valve stuck open (preventing R-22 recharge)
