Signs Your Heat Pump Needs Service

Many systems still heat and cool, yet they drift out of spec. You feel it as comfort swings, higher bills, and noisy operation.
A service visit catches problems early.

What you notice at home
  • Weak airflow from heads or vents
  • Rooms that heat unevenly
  • Long run times that never feel “caught up”
  • Strange smells at startup
  • New rattles, buzzing, or vibration
  • Water stains or moisture near the indoor unit
What service prevents
  • Drain clogs that lead to leaks
  • Coil buildup that reduces heating and cooling
  • Electrical hot spots that shorten component life
  • Outdoor icing issues from airflow and clearance problems
  • Short cycling caused by airflow restrictions

When to book service

Book service before winter and again before peak cooling season. If you have pets, renovations, or heavy usage, you may need service more often.

Data-Driven: What Service Fixes Before It Turns Into Repairs

In Burnaby, systems often run hard through damp shoulder seasons. Indoor airflow and drainage issues show up fast.
Service visits catch small problems before they become breakdown calls.

Airflow drift

Filters and coil buildup reduce output and raise run time. A service visit confirms airflow and restores performance.

Drain risk

Condensate problems lead to leaks and ceiling damage. We check drainage under operation, not only by sight.

Outdoor clearance

Blocked airflow causes icing and weak heat. We check coil condition and clearance so defrost can work as designed.

Electrical hot spots

Loose connections raise wear on components. We check for stable, safe operation and address issues early.

Transparent pricing guidance

Service cost depends on system type, number of indoor heads, access, and the time needed for testing and cleaning.
You’ll know what we checked and what we recommend next.

FAQ

How often should I book Heat Pump Service Burnaby?

Book at least once per year. Many homes benefit from a second check before peak cooling season.
If you have pets, renovations, or heavy usage, service can be needed more often.

What is the difference between service and repair?

Service focuses on inspection, cleaning, testing, and preventing issues.
Repair focuses on diagnosing and fixing a fault that is already causing poor performance or failure.

Can maintenance lower my power bill?

Yes. Restoring airflow and keeping coils and drains in good shape helps the system move heat more efficiently.
That often reduces run time and improves comfort.

Why does my unit freeze outside in winter?

Frost can be normal. Heavy ice that stays can point to airflow and clearance problems or defrost issues.
Service checks outdoor airflow, coil condition, and defrost behavior.
