Heat Pump Repair in Halifax

Heat pumps are energy-efficient and eco-friendly systems that can provide both heating and cooling for your home or business. However, they also require regular maintenance and occasional repairs to keep them running smoothly and effectively.  We service all makes and models of heat pumps, including ductless mini-split and central ducted. 

 

We have a team of certified and licensed technicians who can diagnose and fix any heat pump problem, such as:

​

  • Low or leaking refrigerant: Refrigerant is the fluid that circulates through the heat pump and transfers heat. If the refrigerant level is low or there is a leak in the system, the heat pump will not be able to heat or cool properly. This can also cause damage to the compressor and other components. Any leaks need to be found and sealed, then the refrigerant needs to be recharged to the correct level.

  • Dirty or frozen coils: The coils are the parts of the heat pump that absorb or release heat from the air. If the coils are dirty or covered with ice, they will not be able to exchange heat efficiently. This can reduce the performance and efficiency of the heat pump and increase your energy bills. The coils need to be cleaned regularly to ensure an efficient defrost cycle.

  • Faulty thermostat: The thermostat is the device that controls the temperature and operation of the heat pump. If the thermostat is faulty, it may not sense the indoor temperature accurately or send the right signals to the heat pump. This can cause the heat pump to run too much, too little, or not at all. Our team is able to check the thermostat settings, replace the batteries, or replace the thermostat if it is broken.

  • Broken fan motor: The fan motor is the part of the heat pump that blows air over the coils and distributes it throughout the house. If the fan motor is broken, the heat pump will not be able to move the air and transfer heat. This can cause the heat pump to overheat and shut down, or not provide enough heating or cooling. Our team has the tools to replace the fan motor or repair the wiring or capacitor that powers it.

  • Clogged condensate drain: The condensate drain is the pipe that carries the water that forms on the coils as they cool the air. If the condensate drain is clogged, the water will back up and overflow, causing water damage and mold growth. This can also affect the performance and efficiency of the heat pump.

  • Electrical issues: The heat pump relies on electricity to run its components and controls. If there are electrical issues, such as loose connections, blown fuses, tripped breakers, or short circuits, the heat pump will not work properly or at all. This can also pose a fire hazard and damage the heat pump.

Heat Pump Repair Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I perform heat pump repairs myself?

While some minor maintenance tasks can be done by homeowners, such as changing filters, most repairs should be handled by a qualified and insured HVAC technician. Attempting complex repairs can be dangerous and may void warranties.

​

Q: How often should I have my heat pump serviced?

It is recommended to have your heat pump serviced at least once a year. Regular maintenance helps prevent breakdowns and ensures efficient operation.

​

Q: How long do heat pumps typically last?

With proper maintenance, air-source heat pumps can last 10-15 years. Regular servicing can help extend the lifespan of your heat pump and maintain its efficiency. If your heat pump is breaking down and near the end of the 10 year lifespan, it is worth considering upgrading to a newer, more efficient heat pump system.
