Heat Pump Repair and Maintenance Service

Heat Pump Services You Can Count On

Serving Gresham | Troutdale | Milwaukie | Happy Valley

Your heat pump is a convenient heating and cooling solution that works hard throughout the year. However, if you’ve noticed issues with yours, it’s time to call the heat pump repair and maintenance experts at Multnomah Heating, Inc. for help.

We ask our heat pumps to do a lot for us. Yours may run for most of the year, which means it undergoes a lot of wear and tear. Without routine maintenance, this wear and tear can add up to bigger problems, like low airflow, unusual noises, leaks, short cycling, rising energy costs, or failure to maintain the temperature setting.

Have you been experiencing any issues with your heat pump? Give Multnomah Heating, Inc. a call. Our heat pump repair and maintenance technicians can solve your problem and get you back up and running in no time!

Expert Heat Pump Repair in Troutdale

Our certified HVAC technicians are trained to diagnose any possible issues with heat pumps and provide honest recommendations for your long-term comfort.

But how do you know when your heat pump needs repairs? Sometimes, it’s obvious, like when there are noticeable hot and cold spots in the home. While other times it’s less obvious, like a subtle rattling or squeaking sound that portends bigger problems down the road.

Whatever the problem may be, when you call us for heat pump repairs, one of our expert HVAC technicians will quickly and accurately diagnose the trouble. After the diagnosis has been completed, we’ll recommend your best options for both now and the long term. So, if your heat pump still has plenty of life in it, we won’t recommend a brand new unit just because. In other words, we’re always looking out for you, and you can trust us for honest service and recommendations every time.

What Are the Signs Your Heat Pump Needs Repairs?

• Temperature problems: your heat pump runs constantly but doesn’t heat or cool effectively, or takes much longer than usual to reach the set temperature
• Unusual noises: grinding, squealing, banging, or hissing sounds that weren’t there before during normal operation
• Higher energy bills: sudden spikes in electricity costs or steadily increasing bills without changes in your usage patterns
• Ice buildup: frost or ice forming on the outdoor unit that doesn’t clear during defrost cycles, or ice appearing on indoor coils
• Poor airflow: weak air coming from vents, reduced circulation throughout your home, or strange odors from the system
• Electrical issues: frequent circuit breaker trips, the unit failing to turn on, or thermostat malfunctions
• Visible damage: refrigerant leaks creating oily spots around the unit, bent outdoor coil fins, or loose electrical connections

Heat Pump Tune-Ups and Maintenance

Many significant repair issues can be avoided by keeping your heat pump on a routine maintenance schedule. Heat pump tune-ups and maintenance are great for spotting and correcting small issues and inefficiencies that have a way of worsening over time and turning into full-blown problems. It also makes sure your heat pump is operating at peak efficiency when you need it most, saving you energy costs over time.

Schedule a one-time heat pump maintenance service, or sign up for our heat pump maintenance service program. At Multnomah Heating, Inc., we provide heat pump tune-ups and maintenance performed by friendly and fully certified HVAC technicians. They’ll perform a comprehensive inspection, deal with any issues that may be present, such as low refrigerant levels or frayed electrical connections, and thoroughly clean your unit so it’s ready to work for you.

What Are the Benefits of Routine Heat Pump Tune-Ups?

• Extended lifespan: Without regular maintenance, your heat pump will work harder to do the same amount of heating and cooling, which can cause broken components and shorten its overall lifespan by years. With proper care, your heat pump will take care of you for a long time.
• Improved energy efficiency: Regular maintenance boosts energy efficiency, which means lower utility bills and reduced energy consumption.
• Fewer breakdowns: Regular maintenance catches small issues before they become major problems, reducing the likelihood of unexpected system failures.
• Better indoor air quality: Keeping filters clean and ensuring proper airflow improves the indoor air quality in your home.
• Consistent comfort: A well-maintained heat pump is better able to maintain desired temperatures throughout your home.
• Warranty protection: Many manufacturers require regular professional maintenance to keep warranties valid.
• Environmental benefits: By ensuring your system operates at peak efficiency, energy waste is minimized, helping the overall environment.

When Should You Get Heat Pump Maintenance?

• For best results, we recommend getting a heat pump tune-up twice a year. Once in the spring and once in the fall is best, before you start putting your heating and cooling systems to work.
• At a bare minimum, we recommend getting a heat pump tune-up once a year. It won’t improve performance and efficiency like twice-yearly services will, but it can help you avoid major issues.
• If you can’t remember the last time you had a heat pump tune-up, call us and schedule one now! The longer you go without professional heat pump maintenance, the greater the likelihood of a breakdown.
