Portland Heat Pump Installation

Keeping Your Home Warm With Heat Pump Repair & Maintenance

Our climate in Portland is the kind of climate that is perfect for a heat pump HVAC system. This is because we don’t typically get frigidly cold during the winter months, and heat pump systems are great at dehumidifying during the summer months. But gaining all the benefits a heat pump has to offer is highly dependent on its installation and servicing, and if these tasks are performed by anyone other than an expert, you may end up having a very frustrating, and costly, experience with your heat pump.

This will never be the case when you hire the HVAC pros from Western Heating & Cooling. Not only are our Portland heating and cooling professionals NATE-certified, they bring 30 years’ worth of collective experience with them to every job. This means you can rest assured that when we help you with installation, repair, bi-annual maintenance or replacement, the job will be done correctly the first time around.

Why Bi-Annual Maintenance is So Important

You are likely aware that annual maintenance is highly recommended for all heating and cooling systems, so you may be asking yourself: why does a heat pump need maintenance twice per year? The reason is simple: your heat pump system works twice as hard because it alone provides both your heating and cooling. With a heat pump system, you are using a 2-for-1 system in which a single device provides all your comfort needs.

As such, it needs to be maintained twice a year. It really isn’t any different than making separate maintenance appointments for separate heating and cooling systems. However, the important can’t be underscored enough. Maintenance helps your system maintain and even regain energy efficiency, helps you get ahead of potential repairs and extends the life of your heat pump system. When you need bi-annual maintenance for your heat pump, call the experts you can count on.

Why Install & Use a Heat Pump HVAC System?

There are a number of reasons why customers in our area have chosen to use a heat pump HVAC system in their homes:

  • Energy efficiency: Heat pump systems do not need to use any kind of fossil fuel to provide your home with heat; they only use electricity. The amount of electricity they use is 25–50% of what a traditional split system AC uses, making them very energy efficient systems.
  • Versatility: Heat pump HVAC systems can be used with ductwork or ductless indoor blowers, giving you some options for air delivery.
  • Longer lifespan: Heat pumps last an average of 20–25 years versus traditional air conditioning and heating systems, which last 15–20.
  • They're more quiet than traditional HVAC units - If you're looking to reduce the sound of your HVAC system while saving money then contact our Portland heat pump installation experts.

5 Signs You Need Heat Pump Repair

1. Loud noises - Heat pumps are known to be quiet, so if yours is acting up with new noises that aren't normal make sure to call in our heat pump repair experts.

2.Ice build-up - When you have a dirty air filter or there's a refrigerant leak then you might get frozen coils as a result. You either need to change your air filter or call in our Portland heat pump repair experts to seal your leak to and your unit should be up and operational again.

3. It's turning on and off too much - If your compressor has gone on the fritz or your thermostat is bust, it could cause your heat pump to short cycle.

4. Electrical bills through the roof - If your heat pump isn't at 100%, it'll need more electricity to achieve the desired output. So if you notice that your electrical bills are going up you might want to consult our Portland heat pump repair experts.

5. Reduced cooling or heating - If the controller burns out of the reversing valve gets stuck, your heat pump may be unable to heat or cool your home properly.
