Heat Pump Maintenance

How Often Should You Get Heat Pump Maintenance?

According to the Department of Energy, you should have your heat pump maintained at least once per year but, at best, twice per year. During these inspections, our technicians can:

  1. Check your indoor coil for obstructions
  2. Change filters
  3. Inspect ducts
  4. Seal any leaks
  5. Check air flow
  6. Measure refrigerant

Regular heat pump maintenance can save you a lot of money. Well-maintained heat pumps can save between 10% and 25% on utility bills.

Throughout the year, you can change or clean your filters at least once per month to improve airflow and prevent damage to your compressor. You can also clean the outdoor coils if they look dirty, turn off the fan power now and again, and clean the fan. However, in and around the regular cleaning that you do, you should have professionals handle legitimate maintenance concerns on an annual basis.

Our Heat Pump Maintenance Checklist

When you call One Hour for heat pump maintenance, our technicians bring a top-tier checklist with them to ensure all aspects of your system are working properly.

Blockages

One of the things we check is any blockage in your system. This extends to the registers. It is not uncommon for Florida residents to accidentally put a rug, piece of furniture, or other household item over a register or vent. This causes airflow problems. During our maintenance visits, we will make sure there are no obstructions.

Filters

On a related note, clogged filters can be a big problem in heat pumps. Just like your car or any other appliance, air filters block dust, debris, and other allergens from getting into your system. Over time, all the particulates your air filters have trapped inhibit airflow.

When air can’t flow through the heat pump properly, it can cause your system to work harder, trying to force air through a continually smaller and smaller space. Over time, this results in overheating and malfunctions.

We replace your air filters with top-tier models as part of regular heat pump maintenance.

Measure Refrigerant

As part of your heat pump maintenance routine, we will measure your refrigerant and check for leaks. If we notice problems, we’ll recalibrate.

Coils and Fans

Another area we look for is the buildup of coils or fans. Heat pumps naturally collect dust and dirt on the coils. If these don’t get cleaned often enough, the buildup can inhibit heat transfer. We recommend cleaning your heat pump coils every few months, but we will also make sure it is part of our heat pump maintenance!

Measure Airflow

In addition to changing filters and inspecting indoor coils for obstruction, we will also measure your airflow. Adequate airflow is imperative to the overall function of your heat pump, and minor issues can cause a blockage that our team can easily repair.

Electric Inspections

Our team will also inspect your electric terminals. If necessary, we can clean or tighten your connections so that nothing impedes the overall function of your heat pump.

Lubrication

Lubrication is important for your motor. In addition to lubricating the motor, we will make sure that everything is inspected for proper function through a system test.

Thermostat Measures

Finally, we will verify that your thermostat is working properly by sending the right electrical controls to the operation of your heat pump. If we find any issues with your thermostat, our thermostat installation services can help with repairs and replacements.
