The Repair Reduction Facts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are numerous reasons to stay current with heat pump\nmaintenance. One of the biggest is how much it lowers the amount of repairs a\nheat pump will need during its service life. Approximately 85% of the malfunctions\na heat pump may encounter are avoidable thanks to maintenance. The maintenance inspection\ncatches problems while they are small, and the tune-up and cleaning lower the strain\non the heat pump that can lead to future malfunctions. Think about the improved\nconvenience and the lower costs for your heat pump when 85% of the repairs are\njust \u2026 gone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, We Did Say \u201cSpring\u201d Maintenance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you looked at the first paragraph and thought, \u201cI already had the heat pump maintained in the fall,\u201d then we\u2019re glad we can clear up a major misconception. Heat pumps must have maintenance twice<\/em> a year. This is different from air conditioners and furnaces, which only need maintenance once a year. The heat pump has taken over the job of both the AC and furnace, so it does more work and needs more maintenance. The spring check-up gets the heat pump ready to handle summer heat, and the fall prepares the heat pump for cooler weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep in mind: the heat pump uses the same components whether\nit\u2019s in heating or cooling mode. It accumulates the same stress no matter what\njob it does, so it needs a more frequent maintenance schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
