Common Heat Pump Problems We Fix

A heat pump is a complex, year-round workhorse, and like any hardworking system, it can encounter issues. Recognizing the signs of trouble can help you seek timely repairs and avoid a complete system failure. Our experienced technicians are experts at diagnosing and resolving all common heat pump problems.

We frequently provide solutions for:

  • Blowing Cold Air in Heat Mode: This common issue can be caused by problems with the reversing valve, low refrigerant levels, or issues with the outdoor unit's defrost cycle.
  • Not Cooling Effectively: If your home isn't staying cool, the problem could be a refrigerant leak, a dirty coil, or a failing compressor.
  • Unit is Frozen Over: Ice buildup on the outdoor unit, especially in winter, often points to a problem with airflow or the defrost control board.
  • The System Won't Turn On: This could be a simple issue like a tripped breaker or a faulty thermostat, or it could indicate a more serious electrical problem within the unit.
  • Loud or Unusual Noises: Grinding, squealing, or rattling sounds can signal failing motor bearings or other mechanical problems that require immediate attention to prevent further damage.

No matter the symptom, our team has the skill to accurately diagnose the root cause and provide a lasting repair.

Common Heater Problems

Unfortunately, most heater and furnace problems require a professional for repairs. Let Woodfin – Your Home Team give you the expert help you need in Richmond, VA. Here are the most common issues you might run into.

  • Ignition or Pilot Issues
    Problems with the electronic ignition or pilot light could prevent the furnace from firing up. This could be caused by a faulty ignition system or a problem with the gas supply.
  • Blower Runs Continuously
    A blower that won't shut off could indicate an issue with the limit switch.
  • Noises
    It's normal for a furnace or heater to make ambient noise when running, but if you hear strange noises like rattling, squealing, or grinding, shut it off and call for help.
  • Cracked Heat Exchanger
    If your furnace is undersized for your home, it could overheat, causing the heat exchanger to crack. A cracked heat exchanger is dangerous and could lead to carbon monoxide leaks.
  • Flame Sensor or Thermocouple Problems
    These components can become dirty or damaged, causing the furnace to shut off unexpectedly.
