Heat pumps can show signs of trouble before a complete breakdown. If you notice any of the following, it's time to schedule a service visit:
♦ Your system won’t switch between heating and cooling
♦ Weak airflow or uneven temperatures in your home
♦ Rising energy bills with no change in usage
♦ Ice buildup on the outdoor unit, even in warmer weather
♦ Unusual sounds like grinding, rattling, or clicking
♦ The heat pump turns on and off too frequently (short cycling)
♦ No response when adjusting the thermostat
Don’t ignore these issues—they often get worse with time and can lead to costlier repairs if left untreated.
Southern California’s hot summers and mild winters make heat pumps an ideal option—but they still work hard year-round. In areas like Redlands, Yucaipa, and Highland, common issues like dust buildup, fluctuating temperatures, and electrical strain can shorten your system’s lifespan if not addressed promptly.
That’s why we take a local-first approach. We know how Inland Empire weather affects HVAC systems, and we tailor every repair to make sure your unit performs efficiently in our specific climate.
If your heat pump is less than 10–12 years old and the issue is minor—like a thermostat miscalibration or a clogged filter—repair is usually the best option. If the unit is older, frequently breaking down, or inefficient despite multiple fixes, a replacement may be more cost-effective in the long run. We’ll provide honest guidance based on your system’s condition.
There are several possible causes: low refrigerant, a malfunctioning reversing valve, a faulty thermostat, or an issue with the defrost cycle. In colder weather, the heat pump may also take a moment to warm up. If it’s constantly cold, schedule a professional inspection.
A thin layer of frost in cold weather can be normal, and most heat pumps automatically enter defrost mode. However, excessive ice or frost that doesn’t go away could signal a malfunction in the defrost sensor, refrigerant issues, or airflow restrictions—and should be checked out immediately.
Yes. We service all types of heat pumps, including ductless mini split systems. Whether it’s a zoning issue, refrigerant leak, or remote control problem, our team is trained to diagnose and repair ductless units quickly and correctly.
You can try these quick steps first:
