Many homeowners cool and heat their houses with heat pumps in Lewisville, TX. A heat pump is among the most efficient and cost-effective home HVAC options.
Heat pumps do experience wear and tear through normal use that can eventually lead to serious issues. Those problems can undermine your indoor comfort and energy savings. If you’re experiencing issues with your unit, it’s vital to schedule a heat pump repair right away.
"Save time. Save money. Call Honest! Seriously, these guys were at my house on a Saturday within 20 mins of my call and had my AC fixed and running better than ever in no time. Friendly service. Honest answers and top-notch work. Thank you, Honest!"- Matt M.
While heat pumps are highly efficient, malfunctions can disrupt that efficiency. Increased electricity consumption is often an early sign of a heat pump problem. You can spot these spikes in usage by tracking your consumption month to month and year to year. You can do that manually or invest in a smart thermostat that does it for you.
Another potential sign you need heat pump repair is irregular cycling. While heat pump cycles vary, a typical cycle is 10-15 minutes, and it should occur two or three times per hour. A heat pump that turns on and off frequently is short-cycling, which causes great wear and tear. It could indicate overheating, a refrigerant leak, or just a clogged filter. A heat pump system that runs for extended periods is long cycling, which may suggest an issue with the thermostat control.
Don’t ignore tripped circuit breakers. While an isolated trip doesn’t necessarily indicate a serious problem, recurring trips do. The problem may be as simple as a loose electrical connection. Left unattended, the issue can spread to other components.
Whether you should repair a heat pump or opt for a new heat pump installation depends on several factors. One is age, as once a heat pump reaches 15 years, we’ll be more inclined to recommend replacement. Another is the repair cost. If a repair is expensive, it’s often better to invest in a new system regardless of the current unit’s age.
Watch for these other indications that you need heat pump repair or replacement.
Weak airflow
Loud or unusual noises
Uneven heating or cooling
Poor air quality and excessive dust
Mustiness or other unpleasant odors
