Quality Heat Pump Service in Ravenna

Quality Heat Pump Repair and Replacement in Ravenna

Not only can an electric heat pump raise the temperature in your home in Ravenna, it can cool it too. When compared to traditional heating systems—like a gas furnace—you’ll also likely have a reduced heating and cooling bill.

Heat pumps function with an air handler, which circulates air throughout your home. While an air handler might have the appearance of a furnace, it doesn’t create heat through fuel combustion. However, some air handler models may have secondary electric heating or cooling parts to back up the heat pump.

When you need heat pump service or heat pump repair, call Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning. We can work on any kind of heat pump. Our technicians are ACE-certified, which means they are among the top in the HVAC industry when it comes to heating and cooling.

And like all our other work, our services for heat pump systems are backed by a one-year 100% Satisfaction Guarantee.*

Poor Maintenance Can Cost You
An insufficiently maintained system can cost you. On average, a neglected heat pump can eat up 10 to 25 percent more energy, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. It’s also more likely to malfunction or fail prematurely.

When your HVAC system isn’t providing the best home heating or isn’t working in a reliable manner, try our troubleshooting guide below.

No heat. Check your thermostat is switched to “on” and “heat.” Next, make sure a circuit breaker hasn’t tripped. Recently replaced your thermostat? Make sure it’s a model compatible with heat pumps and wired correctly.

Insufficient heat. Dirty filters, fan and coils can lower airflow and wreck your system. Swap your filter once a month, clean the unit’s coils and fan, and remove yard debris that may have accumulated around it. Your system may also have blocked air ducts, faulty valves or poor refrigeration flow.

Cold air instead of heat. Air from a heat pump won’t be as hot as a forced air furnace. But if the air still seems too cold, set the thermostat to emergency heat and at least 5 degrees above the inside temperature. If you get warm air, there may be trouble with your outdoor unit. Cold air means there’s probably an issue with your thermostat or air handler. Your system may have also gone into defrost mode to avoid icing up. If you see frost or ice on the outdoor coil, your unit may have a defective defroster timer or control module, or it could need refrigerant.

Heat pump turns on and off frequently. Replace your air filter and then look at your thermostat, because it may need to be recalibrated or need new batteries. If it’s cold and your system is working constantly, the thermostat may be set too high. Also, some heat pumps don’t work well around 25 to 30 degrees Fahrenheit.

Rattling, grinding or squealing noises. If you hear rattling, try tightening the cover panels. If you hear grinding or squealing, switch off your system and call Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning. This could suggest a serious problem.
