Heat pumps are a reliable and efficient choice for heating and cooling your home, but like any machine, they will need repairs eventually. Some of the most common heat pump problems that may crop up include refrigerant leaks, electrical failures, and defrost cycle malfunctions, all of which are relatively easy for an experienced heat pump technician to repair.
Heat pump maintenance is often overlooked as an integral part of ensuring the longevity and efficiency of the unit. We recommend that you have your heat pump professionally serviced every 12 months, or more often if repairs are needed. You should ideally have your heat pump inspected before the start of winter, to ensure your unit is working properly before you need it most.
The life expectancy of a heat pump depends on several factors, such as the type of heat pump, your location, and how well the heat pump is maintained. Heat pumps normally last an average of 15 years, though some can wear out after a decade. Some of the newer units being manufactured today can last a bit longer.
Common signs include unusual noises, insufficient heating or cooling, higher energy bills, and frequent cycling on and off. If you notice any of these issues, it’s advisable to contact a professional for an inspection.
The duration of a repair depends on the complexity of the issue. Minor repairs can often be completed within a few hours, while more significant problems may take longer. Your service technician can provide a more accurate estimate after diagnosing the problem.
It is not recommended to attempt repairing a heat pump yourself unless you have the necessary knowledge and experience. Heat pumps are complex systems that require specialized tools and training to properly diagnose and fix issues.
In the event that your heat pump is continuously running, it is likely in need of repair. This can indicate an issue with your thermostat or a broken compressor, but regardless of the problem it likely needs to be addressed by a professional.
Obstructed airflow occurs when air is not flowing properly throughout your home. This is usually caused by ice that becomes too thick on the coil, which can also impede other moving parts within the heat pump unit.
Any odd noises coming from your heat pump is usually a sign that your heat pump should be inspected by an expert Norman Air technician. Your heat pump should run calmly in the background of your home, any screeching, squealing, or rattling coming from your heat pump should be addressed immediately.
Short cycles occur when you notice your heating frequently turning on and off. This could be an issue with your thermostat or something more serious that needs to be addressed by a professional technician.
Any otherwise unexplainable increases in your home energy bills can be an indication that there is an inefficiency within your heating system, if not an issue that needs to be repaired.
