Heat Pump Services - Alamo Heights, TX

Air Authority, A Riteway Service Company encourages homeowners to schedule regular heat pump service in Alamo Heights, TX. Preventative maintenance can save you money and headaches. You should also call us for heat pump repair at the first signs of an issue. Modern heat pumps are highly efficient, but minor issues can throw that efficiency out of whack. That can result in a much higher electricity bill. The problem can also worsen, resulting in a more expensive repair or replacement. If you’ve reached this point, we can help you with a new heat pump installation to make your home comfortable again.

Heat Pump Repair and Installation

A common problem is a heat pump that won’t turn on. Perhaps it’s the first time you’ve used the system this season, or it’s been running and then just stopped. Often, this is a power problem. You can check the circuit breaker and reset it once if tripped. But if it trips again, call us right away because it indicates a more severe problem. There might also be a failed component, such as a starter capacitor, reversing valve, or a major refrigerant leak.

Another common problem is a heat pump running but turning on and off frequently. One potential cause is a clogged air filter that restricts airflow too much and causes the system to trip. An electrical problem or a compressor issue can also cause overheating. It can also indicate a minor refrigerant leak or evaporator coil problem. Our HVAC technicians can fix these issues quickly and get your home comfortable again.

When should you opt for heat pump installation over another repair? One consideration is cost. If a repair will cost you 50% or more of what a new system would, we’ll generally recommend replacement. The other consideration is system age. After 15 years, your heat pump isn’t as efficient as it once was and will need lots more repairs. Newer heat pumps are much more efficient than those made a decade or longer ago.

Watch for these signs that you may need heat pump repair or replacement:

Short or long cycling

Rising electricity use

Poor indoor air quality

Uneven heating or cooling

Loud noises when cycling on or off
