Heat Pump Repair

Getting yourself a reliable heat pump system is crucial in areas like Bozeman as the temperatures start to plummet. With freezing winters and warm, sunny summers, one solution is to rely on a heat pump to keep you comfortable year-round.

However, that only solves your problem if the system works reliably in all seasons.

Thankfully, Comfort Systems of Montana is always available to handle your heat pump repair needs. With fast service and flat-rate pricing, an affordable heat pump fix is just one call away!

A Montana Heat Pump Service You Can Rely On

Heat pumps are one of the most hardworking systems in your home. Unlike traditional HVAC systems that switch between the air conditioning unit and the heating system, heat pumps work consistently throughout the year. With constant use, your heat pump may experience a few issues, so maintenance and a reliable repair service make a big difference.

If you turn on your heat pump when the summer warmth starts creeping in or when the seasons change in the fall, you expect it to start right up. If it fails to turn on or emits the wrong temperature air, you can get all the attention your heat pump needs from the talented team at Comfort Systems of Montana.

Signs of a Problem With Your Heat Pump

If you notice any of these signs, your heat pump might be in need of some repairs:

• Poor or inconsistent airflow.
• Unfamiliar noises or smells coming from the unit.
• Increased utility bills.
• Your system is short-cycling (turning on and off frequently).

Any heat pump issues warrant quick repairs, but don’t panic – an easy fix for a faulty heat pump is possible if you hire the right help!

Common Heat Pump Repairs

Knowing that something is wrong with your heating system is frustrating. Where do you start when it comes to heat pump repairs?

First, make sure your thermostat is set to the temperature you are desiring. Even something as simple as an unprogrammed thermostat might fix all your problems. However, if you’ve set your thermostat to the correct temperature, you’ll want to call the professionals at Comfort Systems of Montana.

Below are a few of the most common heat pump repairs that professional HVAC companies like ours handle regularly.

Thermostat Repairs

The problem may not be your heat pump itself. Faulty thermostats or incorrect wiring will impact your pump’s ability to function smoothly. Thermostats of all kinds can experience issues, and it may be a quick fix, so don’t wait to get in touch with a technician.

Condenser Repairs

As your heat pump produces warm or cold air, condensation might form inside your unit. To avoid lingering moisture issues and mold growth, this condensation has to have somewhere to go. Exterior and interior blockages prevent condenser drain lines from working properly, which will make your entire system less efficient without intervention.

Faulty Fan Motors

Does your heat pump system have a reliable fan to help push the air through the vents? If the motor is experiencing issues or a blockage is jamming your fan, the air cannot properly circulate. Strange smells, uncomfortable rooms, and rattling noises typically mean that your fan motor is in trouble.

Rely on Quality Heat Pump Repair

After the repairs above, you’re bound to enjoy a more comfortable home right away! Heat pumps have a lifespan of about 15 years, but if you are struggling with constant repairs and breakdowns, a full replacement could save you money.
