Frequently Asked Questions
What Causes Heat Pumps To Stop Heating?
Heat pumps primarily stop heating when the system's ability to efficiently transfer heat is compromised. A common cause is a low refrigerant charge, typically due to a leak, which prevents the unit from properly absorbing heat from the outside air. The outdoor unit may also become frozen solid with ice if the automatic defrost cycle fails, blocking airflow and heat exchange. Other causes include a faulty reversing valve that prevents the system from switching between cooling and heating modes. Finally, a simple, preventable issue, such as a clogged air filter or a tripped circuit breaker, can also shut the system down completely.
How Often Is Heat Pump Maintenance Needed?
Because a heat pump is used for both heating and cooling, it operates year-round and requires maintenance twice per year. The ideal schedule includes one professional tune-up in the spring, before the cooling season, and another in the fall, before the heating season begins. This bi-annual service ensures the refrigerant charge, electrical components, and defrost cycle are working optimally before peak demand. Regular maintenance maximizes efficiency, prevents unexpected breakdowns, and is often a requirement for keeping your manufacturer's warranty valid.
Is Heat Pump Repair Or Replacement Better?
The decision between repair and replacement should follow the 40-50% rule and the unit's age. If the repair cost exceeds 40-50% of the cost of a new heat pump, replacement is the more sensible investment, especially for systems older than ten years. Replacement is also strongly recommended if the critical compressor or heat exchanger fails, as those repairs are highly expensive. However, if the unit is relatively young and the repair is minor, such as a faulty capacitor or a thermostat issue, fixing it is the best short-term choice to maintain your system's life.
Can I Fix Heat Pump Issues On My Own?
You should never attempt to fix complex heat pump issues on your own due to the extreme danger and high risk of damaging the system. Heat pumps contain high-voltage electricity and pressurized refrigerant, both of which pose risks of electrocution or severe chemical burns. Handling refrigerants without EPA certification is also illegal. DIY attempts often misdiagnose the problem, leading to further, more expensive damage and the immediate voiding of your manufacturer's warranty. For any repair beyond changing the air filter or checking a tripped breaker, you must call a certified HVAC professional.
