Heat Pump Servicing

When it comes to servicing appliances, it is easy to settle for cheap options. This happens because people consider the cost of servicing rather than the efficiency after the job.

Heat pumps should be maintained properly to ensure it lasts for a long time while performing its job at its highest capacity. If you are wondering about the ideal times to start servicing your heat pump, we suggest you service your heat pump yearly after the second year with a qualified professional. For people who live in areas that contain a high level of pollution and contaminants, you might need to service your heat pump more often. Heat Pumps NOW have qualified technicians that provide heat pump servicing.

​

Getting quality and comprehensive service from qualified professionals is very important. Before you choose the cheap service next time, consider the following reasons:

• When it comes to cheap heat pump servicing, it is done by an all-around handyman which means he knows his way around heating and cooling systems but doesn’t fully understand the components of the machine because he is not as skilled. When it comes to having comprehensive servicing, you’re choosing a person who understands all the components and functions of the heat pump and can identify issues early and prevent them from becoming bigger issues that will cost you more.
  
• Cheap heat pump servicing focuses on general cleaning of the inside of the heat pump without identifying potential problems and even in situations where they identify these problems, they may not have the necessary parts to replace them. This will cost you more than getting professional and comprehensive servicing because you might have to outsource someone to get the job done.
  
• Cheap service can affect the warranty system of your heat pump when they replace components inside the heat pump with ingenuine parts.
