In the sections to follow, we will answer a few frequent questions about our heat pump maintenance service. Hopefully this gives you a better idea of why heat pump maintenance is essential and why we’re the ideal maintenance partner.
Why is regular heat pump maintenance important?
If your home has a heat pump system, you have made an investment into year round comfort. If you want to protect this investment and ensure it runs as intended for as long as possible, maintenance is essential. While many heat pumps are well made and built to last, it’s still a mechanical system with parts which need to be maintained. You wouldn’t let your car go tens of thousands of miles without service, so it’s important to not let your HVAC system go years without service as well.
What components are checked during heat pump maintenance?
When our team members perform heat pump maintenance, we check every component from top to bottom. While it’s easy to focus on the outdoor unit, we check the unit itself, the indoor air handler and the ducting which carries air throughout your home. During a maintenance check, levels of refrigerant are checked along with all electrical and mechanical parts to ensure everything is in good working order.
What are the benefits of heat pump maintenance?
Regular heat pump maintenance has several benefits, including:
- Energy Savings: By ensuring the system runs as intended, you can keep power bills as low as possible each month. Since the HVAC system is the largest energy expense in your home, this is especially valuable.
- Increased System Lifespan: If your system isn’t running as intended, it is likely having to put a large amount of stress on key components. Data shows regular maintenance is one of the determining factors in how long a heat pump lasts, so having the system checked regularly ensures you get the most out of your unit.
- Avoid Large Issues: Many times during a maintenance visit we can identify a small issue and address it before it becomes larger, saving you time, energy and money.
- Retain Manufacturer’s Warranty: In some cases, units must be maintained periodically to keep the manufacturer’s warranty intact.
