A Comfortable Home Means Keeping The Heat Pump In Order
And the best way to do that is to sign up for heat pump maintenance – especially if you’re thinking of selling, because no one wants to buy a house with an outdated heat pump. That means they are going to have to replace the pump after buying the house.
What that really means is they’re going to look at another house.
AirWorks Solutions provides heat pump maintenance in Camarillo and the surrounding areas. Here’s how we handle heat pump maintenance and what that means for you.
What To Expect During a Heat Pump Maintenance Visit
When you schedule an annual maintenance with us, we don’t take anything for granted. No matter how great you say your heat pump is working, we know that looks can be deceiving. Besides, how often do you inspect the area around your heat pump?
Therefore, our team likes to begin by looking for leaks that pose a danger to us or you. After that, your technician will:
- Flip the power on and off. We’re looking for delays or sputters that signal something is wrong with the unit’s ability to turn on or off.
- Make note of any strange smells or sounds
- Run through the pump’s operations
- Clean the air filter
- Replace the air filter if needed
- Clean grime build-up and dust from any areas of the unit
- Provide component lubrication where required
- Clean the condensate drain line to get rid of water and other debris
- Repair leaks and replace necessary liquids
- Check the thermostat operation
- Change the thermostat batteries if needed
- Test the airflow
- Run through the pump’s operations one final time
The technician will also discuss performance issues with you. Let us know if you have heard or smelled anything that didn’t seem right. That lets us catch everything we possibly can, saving you money in the long run.
