Quality Heat Pump Service in Mobile

Quality Heat Pump Repair and Replacement in Mobile

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

Heat pumps work with an air handler, which distributes air throughout your home. While an air handler might resemble a furnace, it doesn’t produce heat through fuel combustion. However, some air handler models may have secondary electric heating or cooling parts to assist the heat pump.

When you need heat pump service or heat pump repair, turn to Climate Control Service Experts. We can repair any type 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
A poorly maintained system can cost you. On average, an ignored heat pump can guzzle 10 to 25 percent more energy, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. It’s also more likely to stop working or have a shorter life span.

When your HVAC system isn’t providing the best home heating or isn’t working properly, 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 put in a new thermostat? Make sure it’s a model made for heat pumps and wired properly.

Insufficient heat. Filthy filters, fan and coils can limit airflow and damage your system. Put in a new filter once a month, clean the unit’s coils and fan, and remove yard debris that may have gathered 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 warm as a forced air furnace. But if the air still seems too crisp, 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 stop it from 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 have too little refrigerant.

Heat pump turns on and off frequently. Change your air filter and then monitor your thermostat, because it may need to be recalibrated or need new batteries. If it’s cold and your system is on all the time, 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 Climate Control Service Experts. This could signal a serious problem.
