Five Signals Your Heat Pump Needs to Be Fixed
Now that you have heard some of the usual causes of heat pump damage, it might be useful to hear how those problems make themselves known. Here are some common signs something is faulty with your heat pump.
1. Heat Pump Covered in Ice
During the colder months, it’s possible that your outdoor unit will have a little ice buildup. When this develops, your unit should shift into a defrost cycle and reverse the refrigerant to melt the ice. If your whole unit is covered in ice and won’t defrost, you have a concern that needs professional attention.
2. Heat Pump is Short Cycling
By short cycling, we mean that your heat pump starts and stops before it’s had time to bring your home to your preferred temperature. This is a sign that your heat pump is the incorrect size for your home. And if it isn’t taken care of, it could wear your heat pump down.
3. Energy Bills are Climbing
Your heat pump is one of the most efficient HVAC solutions available—especially if you take care of it. If you’re doing everything you can to take care of it and are still watching your energy costs go up, it’s time to find a professional.
4. Heat Pump Is Noisy
Your heat pump isn’t going to be totally silent, but it also shouldn’t be terribly noisy. If you’re hearing new sounds from your heat pump—especially any that sound wrong—you may want to have a professional look it over.
