Heat Pump Maintenance In Dutchess County

Heat pump maintenance involves scheduled seasonal inspections and service tasks designed to keep your system operating at peak efficiency year-round. During a spring tune-up, we inspect the outdoor unit for winter debris, clean or replace air filters, check refrigerant levels, test all electrical connections, and verify thermostat operation. The outdoor condenser coil gets cleaned to remove dirt and pollen buildup that reduces cooling efficiency by up to 15 percent. / Fall maintenance focuses on preparing your system for heating season. We inspect both indoor and outdoor units, check refrigerant charge and pressure, test heat exchanger operation, verify blower motor performance, and ensure all electrical components are secure. We also flush drain lines to prevent water backup and clean intake vents to maximize heating output when temperatures drop. / A complete maintenance visit takes one to two hours depending on system complexity. We provide a detailed report showing what we found, what we completed, and any components approaching wear that warrant future attention. Customers who maintain systems on a regular schedule report fewer emergency repairs, lower utility bills, and systems that last 15 to 20 years instead of 10 to 12.
