Professional Heat Pump Repairs

When your heat pump no longer works efficiently or stops working altogether, you need a quick, long-term fix. With decades of industry experience, Guthrie & Sons can repair all brands of heat pumps.

Our NATE-certified technicians will first locate the problem with your heat pump before determining the next steps. Rest assured that we have the tools and knowledge to get this system back on track. Once we’re done, your home will be at the perfect temperature again.

Signs Your Heat Pump Needs Repair

The sooner you notice something isn’t right with your heat pump, the sooner you can schedule repairs and restore your home comfort.

Here are four signs that your heat pump needs repair:

  • Lack of heating or cooling: If your system isn’t properly heating or cooling your home, there may be a problem with the reversing valve. A faulty valve means less control of the refrigerant flow and, in turn, less effectiveness.
  • Higher energy costs: Did your energy bill suddenly spike even though your usage stayed the same? The culprit may be a failing heat pump that’s working harder than normal to maintain your desired temperature.
  • Odd sounds: Unusual noises like clicking, rattling, or banging typically indicate a worn-out or damaged part. Scheduling prompt repairs is critical, as delaying a fix only worsens things.
  • Frost or ice: While a small amount of ice on your heat pump may seem trivial, constant ice throughout the year is concerning and warrants a professional repair.

Why is my heat pump blowing cold air in heating mode?

If your heat pump is blowing cold air in heating mode, check that your thermostat is set to heat. If the setting is correct, have an expert look for damaged ductwork or dirty air filters.

Can I perform heat pump repairs myself?

While you may be tempted to handle this task yourself, it’s best to play it safe and leave it to a professional. Remember that some DIY repair attempts can cause shock or electrocution.

What should I do if my heat pump freezes up?

Ensure the defrost cycle is operating normally. If the problem continues, ask an HVAC technician to assess your heat pump and fix the defrost system.
