Your heat pump works hard to keep your house comfy.

Unlike air conditioners, the outdoor unit on heat pumps doesn’t get time off when the temperatures cool down.

Five Signs Your Heat Pump Needs to Be Fixed

Now that you understand some of the root causes of heat pump damage, it might be helpful to hear how those issues make themselves known. Here are some general signs something is faulty with your heat pump.

1. Heat Pump Covered in Ice

During the winter, it’s possible that your outdoor unit will have a bit of ice buildup. When this develops, your unit should shift into a defrost cycle and reverse the refrigerant to melt the ice. If your full unit is covered in ice and won’t defrost, you have a concern that needs professional help.

2. Heat Pump is Short Cycling

By short cycling, we mean that your heat pump turns on and stops before it’s had time to bring your home to your chosen temperature. This is a sign that your heat pump is incorrectly sized for your home. And if it isn’t taken care of, it could wear your heat pump down.

3. Energy Bills are Climbing

Your heat pump is one of the most efficient HVAC solutions available—especially if you keep up with it. If you’re doing everything you can to take care of it and are still seeing your energy costs climb, it’s time to bring in a professional.

4. Heat Pump Is Noisy

Your heat pump isn’t going to be completely silent, but it also shouldn’t be noticeably noisy. If you’re hearing new sounds from your heat pump—especially any that sound wrong—you may want to have a professional inspect it.

Common Causes of Heat Pump Problems

There are quite a few things that can cause issues for your heat pump. Here are some of the most common issues.
  • Absence of service. Like you, your heat pump needs to be taken care of to stay in good shape. You have a regular checkup. Your heat pump has seasonal maintenance. You should schedule an appointment with an HVAC expert twice a year to help your system stay healthy. Without maintenance, you're putting your system at risk for a failure.
  • Clogged filter. One of the least complicated ways to keep your heat pump on track is to periodically check and replace your air filter. If you ignore it, your system has to work harder to keep you comfortable. Working overtime like that can lead to damage, and later, a repair.
  • Component failure. Your heat pump is made of quite a few parts—both moving and stationary. They're all crucial to heating and cooling your home efficiently. When one stops working, it can make it difficult—or impossible—for your system to keep working without a repair.
  • Thermostat problems. Your thermostat is a precise instrument. Any issue with it could make your home less comfortable.

Should I Repair or Replace My Heat Pump?

When your heat pump fails, it seems only natural to call for a repair. But sometimes, a repair isn’t worth it anymore. In those times, a replacement is a better choice. Here are some factors that can help you choose if a repair is a better option:

  • Your heat pump is less than 10 years old. If your heat pump is still somewhat young, a repair likely makes sense. It still has a lot of life left for you. However, if your heat pump is up there in years, a replacement might make more financial sense.
  • You haven't repaired your heat pump multiple times. If a repair on your system is a relatively rare occurrence, you may want to follow through with the repair. If you feel like you've been repairing your unit pretty often, it might be time to consider a replacement.
  • The repair you need is inexpensive. If a technician can take care of your issue easily and the price is relatively low, a repair is most likely your best choice. But if your repair will set you back quite a bit—like replacing your heat pump's compressor—it's likely better to put that money into a new heat pump that will serve you for a lot longer.
