Heat Pump Repair in Indianapolis, IN

You rely on your heat pump to keep your home warm and toasty in the winter and cool and comfortable in the summer. But, if your heat pump is in need of repair, it may be unable to produce the heated or cooled air your home needs, which can leave you and your family uncomfortable. Getting the repairs you need help to ensure that your heat pump can function when you need it to.

Does Your Heat Pump Need Repairs?

When your heat pump is experiencing issues that require Indianapolis heat pump repair, your unit will often give you signs that something is not right. Knowing what these signs are can help you learn when to call in a heating and cooling professional. Your heat pump may need repairs if:

The System Is Short Cycling

One of the most common signs of a heat pump that is in need of repair is short cycling. This basically means that your unit kicks on, runs for a brief period of time, shuts off, and repeats this short cycle over and over. Short cycling does not allow your unit to complete its full heating or cooling cycle and puts a lot of wear and tear on parts in your unit, shortening the lifespan of things such as the motor and belts. If you notice your unit running for brief periods of time, rather than for the normal length of time, your unit is likely short cycling.

You Notice Higher Utility Costs

Another sign that can indicate that heat pump systems need repair are higher than normal utility costs. Unfortunately, there are a number of reasons your utility bills can increase, including old windows, faulty thermostats, and heating and cooling units that need repair. If you notice your energy bill has unexpectedly increased while running your heat pump to either heat or cool your home, you may need to have your unit inspected and possibly repaired.

Rooms in the Home Are Different Temperatures

When your heat pump is in need of repairs, it may be unable to effectively and consistently heat or cool all of the rooms in your home. You may notice cold spots in your home or may notice a room or two, particularly those farthest from the heat pump, are not heating or cooling as they should.

You Hear Banging Noises From the Unit

The final sign that your heat pump may be nearing the end of its lifespan is banging coming from the unit. You may hear banging, clanking, screeching, grinding or squealing. While you will likely hear your unit when it kicks on, it should be a low humming sound that you can drown out like white noise. If you hear other sounds, something is wrong with your unit.

How To Prevent Future Heat Pump Issues

Most heat pump manufacturers recommend that you have your heat pump serviced two times per year. This is because heat pumps are tasked with providing both heating and cooling, meaning they run year-round. There is a lot that occurs during a heat pump service, including cleaning and inspecting the unit.

This allows a technician to spot HVAC problems that are still relatively small and make repairs before they turn into larger problems. Having your unit serviced two times per year is the best thing you can do to prevent future heat pump issues and extend the lifespan of your heat pump.

Our house had been inspected and sold three times over its 45 year life before we purchased it. Because of these things, it was almost unbelievable to learn the extent to which its electrical system was out of date. It was in no way compliant with the current residential electric system safety codes (even with the couple of “grandfathered” areas). I learned of myriad electrical deficiencies through the narrative and pictures provided by the thorough inspection report I’d paid for. Each of four different company’s reps was given a copy of the inspection report and to provide a cost estimate to bring everything up to snuff. Only two of the company reps dealt with everything that was on its copy of the inspection report—not good, and an estimate from them was no longer needed. Of the two remaining and acceptable estimates, Efficient Systems was about 15% more expensive but I was most impressed with the rep’s obvious thoroughness, knowledge, demeanor, and confidence. It took three visits to do all that needed done; however, one of those trips was dedicated to a new job I’d wanted done that was not on the inspection report; but their competence told me to ask them to do the additional work . Efficient System’s worker bees were a pleasure to deal with—no radios, no cussing, nothing objectionable and their jobs, courtesy, and cleanup were without fault. I’m an old, retired Marine colonel and I’m very particular—Efficient Systems gets a ‘well done,’ a good A in my book.

Efficient Systems continues to do a great job. They installed a new furnace and air conditioner for us back in April and we were very impressed with both the service and the product. Efficient most recently came back for routine maintenance on our furnace. Adam called 30 minutes before the appointment to let us know he was on his way. He was prompt, efficient, and knowledgeable. Great Job!

Efficient systems were awesome to work with. They showed up when they said they would. The technician was very friendly and clean. He offered other services while here, which is very helpful. we don’t have an electrician or a plumber so we will be calling Efficient Systems again.

First let me say this, on New Year’s Eve during the wind storm we had a disaster in our backyard when a tree fell and pulled our powerline halfway out, half of the power was still on until morning when Indianapolis power and light finally made it out with what we thought was a re-connection of all power, but that was not the case, IPL had to shut everything down due to the possibility of a short which may have caused an electrical fire, at this point we were desperate to have our weatherhead repaired because it was completely destroyed, being that it was on New Year’s day no one out of the five people that I called would come out except for “Efficient Systems”!! Adam of Efficient Systems was the first one on the scene and conducted his survey and gave us the estimate, because of the severe distruction of the weatherhead and circuit breaker box and with Christmas just passing we were not able to pay out of pocket.. Efficient Systems worked with us and gave us the ability to make payments on a payment plan!! Adam was then accompanied by his team leader Sean, these guys are consummate professionals in every way!! They worked feverishly until the job was completed, the power was back on before the end of the night!! Keep in mind that all of this was done on a holiday!! I cannot tell you how thankful we are! It was a five-star experience! If you have an electrical problem and you want the job done right in an expedient manner with a professional attitude accompanying.. you best call Efficient Systems!! Thank you Adam, Sean and Efficient Systems, you guys are what people should expect when they call for professional help!! Thank you!
