5 Tips For Heat Pump Maintenance

5 TIPS FOR HEAT PUMP MAINTENANCE INSPECT REGULARLY Ducts, filters, blowers, and indoor coils are important components of heat pumps, thus you should check to see if any of these have dirt collected on them that may be causing any obstructions. CHECK ELECTRIC TERMINALS Inspecting the medium through which your heat pump receives the electricity to heat up is necessary. You should thus ensure your electric terminals are cleaned and tightened, and you can also apply nonconductive coating if needed. VERIFY THERMOSTAT OPERATIONS The electric controls should be functional as they ensure that heating and cooling do not intervene with each other. Verifying your thermostat is in place will help keep the heat locked out when cooling is required and vice versa. CHECK REFRIGERANI LEVELS The refrigerant charge must be verified as it helps in heating and cooling of your heat pump. In case your refrigerant charge is low, there might be a leak, which you need to look into. CALL FOR HELP You can use DIYS to repair and maintain your heat pump and AC, yourself. However, if you feel you can't manage, then it's better to call for help. Contact UGI Heating, Cooling & Plumbing for repairs and new AC installation in Lehigh Valley.
