What Skipping Heat Pump Service Actually Costs You

Heat pumps work harder than most systems. Because they handle both heating and cooling, they run year-round and accumulate wear on compressors, coils, refrigerant lines, and electrical components faster than single-season equipment. Burlington’s cold winters and humid summers only amplify that demand, which makes pre-season maintenance especially important for keeping your system ready when you need it most.

According to the U.S. Department of Energy, the difference in energy consumption between a well-maintained heat pump and a severely neglected one can range from 10 to 25 percent. That loss shows up on your energy bills before it ever shows up as a breakdown. Neglected systems are also prone to refrigerant leaks, coil buildup that restricts heat transfer, electrical connection failures, and reduced airflow from clogged filters. Beyond performance, many manufacturers require documented professional maintenance to keep warranty coverage valid, and skipping service may void that protection entirely.

What Our Heat Pump Maintenance Visit Includes

A professional tune-up from H.J. Faust, Inc. isn’t a quick visual check. Our technicians work through a thorough inspection of both the indoor and outdoor units, focusing on the components most likely to cause problems if they’re left unaddressed. Our Annual Maintenance Agreement includes a 30-point inspection covering refrigerant levels, electrical connections, and airflow, giving you a clear picture of your system’s health.

During a standard heat pump maintenance visit, our technicians:

• Inspect indoor and outdoor components for wear or damage
• Clean the indoor coil, outdoor coil, and air filters
• Assess refrigerant levels and check for leaks
• Inspect and tighten electrical connections; test capacitors
• Verify thermostat calibration
• Lubricate motors and inspect moving parts
• Check the condensate drain for blockages
• Run a full performance test at the end of service

After completing every task, our technician can walk you through what was found and what, if anything, warrants attention. If a repair is needed, we give you an honest assessment. We won’t recommend more than your system actually requires.

Between Visits: What Homeowners Can Do

Professional maintenance keeps your heat pump performing at its best, and a few simple habits between appointments help extend that benefit. Check and replace or clean air filters every one to three months, or according to your manufacturer’s guidance. Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, debris, grass clippings, and snow, and trim back any vegetation growing around the unit.

Make sure supply and return vents remain unobstructed throughout your home. If you notice a sudden spike in your energy bills, unusual noises, or unfamiliar odors from the system, contact a technician promptly. These are often early signs of a developing problem. These tasks support your system between professional visits; they don’t replace them.

• Both a furnace check-up and an air conditioner check-up
• A 30-point inspection of your HVAC system
