What heat pump repair & installation involves
Heat pump work covers both modes. A unit that cools beautifully can still fail in heating if the reversing valve or defrost board is bad, so we test both.
Heat pump service and installation, including cold-climate systems and defrost problems.
What we usually get called for
- Heat pump blows cool air in heating mode
- Outdoor unit iced over and staying that way
- Electric backup heat running constantly
- Loud shudder when the system switches modes
- Cools fine in summer, no heat in winter
The repair itself
We check backup heat staging as part of every heat pump repair — an incorrectly wired strip heater is an expensive thing to leave alone.
When replacement makes sense
If the existing unit can be repaired and run a few more seasons, we'll say so. Replacement is a recommendation, not the default.
Questions from Stanhope homeowners
- Can a heat pump replace my furnace?
- Sometimes, and sometimes a dual-fuel setup is smarter. We'll compare both for your house.
- Why is my electric bill so high?
- Usually backup electric heat running when the heat pump should be handling the load. That's a staging and controls issue.
