Signs You Need Heat Pump Service

Consider a heat pump – or call about a repair – if you notice:

  • You’re weighing a more energy-efficient way to heat and cool your home
  • Your existing heat pump blows cold air while in heating mode
  • The system runs constantly without reaching the temperature you set
  • The outdoor unit is iced over, even outside of the normal defrost cycle
  • Rising energy bills without a change in how you use the system

FAQ

What is a heat pump and how does it work?

A heat pump moves heat rather than generating it, pulling warmth from outside air into your home in winter and reversing the process to cool your home in summer.

Do heat pumps work well in Philadelphia winters?

Modern heat pumps handle the Philadelphia climate well, though very cold snaps may call for backup heat depending on the system. We’ll help you evaluate the right setup.

Heat pump vs. furnace — which is better?

It depends on your home, energy costs, and how much cooling you need in summer. Heat pumps offer efficient two-in-one heating and cooling; furnaces are often a strong choice paired with separate AC. We’ll walk you through the tradeoffs.

Why is my heat pump blowing cold air?

This can happen during a normal defrost cycle, but persistent cold air may point to low refrigerant, a reversing valve issue, or another problem worth inspecting.

How often do heat pumps need maintenance?

Once a year is standard, ideally checked before both the heating and cooling seasons since the system runs nearly year-round.
