Why Annual Maintenance Matters
A heat pump works year‑round, heating your home in the winter and cooling it in the summer. Because it’s in use so often, regular maintenance is even more important. Our EPA‑certified technicians follow a detailed, manufacturer‑approved checklist to keep your system operating at peak efficiency. With routine maintenance you can expect:
- Improved energy efficiency — a clean, well-tuned heat pump doesn’t work harder than it needs to.
- Lower utility bills — when components are clean and calibrated, your system uses less power.
- Fewer breakdowns — we catch small issues (like refrigerant leaks, inefficient coils, or worn parts) before they become major, costly failures.
- Extended lifespan — regular tune‑ups lessen wear and tear, helping your heat pump last longer.
- Consistent comfort year-round — proper maintenance ensures smooth heating in winter and effective cooling in summer.
- Better air quality — cleaning coils and filters removes dust and allergens, helping your home stay healthier and more comfortable.
Our Heat Pump Tune-Up Checklist
When you schedule heat pump maintenance with Quality Comfort, we perform a complete system check‑up, including:
- Inspect the refrigerant lines and the insulation of the refrigerant lines
- Ensure the outdoor unit is level and draining properly
- Inspect the outdoor unit coil for damage or anything that might obstruct airflow and clean as necessary
- Inspect the indoor coil for dirt or debris and clean as necessary
- Examine the indoor blower motor and blower wheel
- Examine the outdoor unit blower
- Check the condensate lines and or the condensate pump
- Lubricate motors and bearings as necessary
- Check to outdoor safety disconnect
- Test thermostat operation
- Start-up system and test operation in both heating and cooling operation
When Should You Schedule Maintenance?
Because your heat pump works both heating and cooling cycles, twice‑a-year check‑ups (before summer and before winter) are ideal. That said, if you can’t book two visits, having at least one complete maintenance visit per year is essential to maximize efficiency and prevent unexpected breakdowns.
