Heat pumps are used to regulate the temperature in your home or space all year round. Unlike some other heating and cooling systems heat pumps don’t have a period of rest during certain seasons of the year. As heat pumps are constantly in use, it is essential to keep them regularly maintained and ensure that you are aware of the signs that show your heat pump requires service. In a situation where a heat pump has broken down, please seek professional assistance and do not try to repair it yourself. Water LeakageWhen heat pumps are cooling during the summer, you may notice dripping water from the indoor unit. This is usually caused by one of several reasons, which can include disconnected drains, overflowing drip rays, failed condensed pumps, or drains without a proper setup. Whatever the reason might be for water leakage from your heat pump, it is suggested you get a qualified technician to check out and confirm the cause. Remote Control Not Working As It ShouldIf you are having issues with your remote control function you could try changing the batteries to see if this helps. One of the signs to look out for with your remote control is when the screen is not responding to commands and/or it appears to be fading or flickering. In situations like this changing your remote control batteries will be the most likely solution to fix this problem. A change in batteries may require you to reset times and programs in your remote as it will potentially revert back to factory settings. If changing the controller batteries does not fix the issue, there may be more underlying problems that will require an experienced technician to sort. Noisy Heat PumpIs your heat pump making strange sounds and running rather noisily? It could be that the defrost system is running and your heat pump is engaging in this process. Turning off your heat pump for the period it stops operating and is blowing out cooler air will benefit your system.
