If your Abington electricity bill jumped this winter with no change in habits, the heat pump is probably leaning on resistance backup heat it should not need. That is diagnosable and usually fixable.

We are 19 miles from Abington at the original shop, but that is not where your technician comes from — teams work out of every part of the state so the response is local.

The usual suspects

A unit encased in ice means defrost is not working. Cooling fine but not heating points squarely at the reversing valve. Auxiliary heat on a mild day means the heat pump is not pulling its weight, and charge is the first thing to check.

Heating and cooling around Abington

Around Abington the fuel is usually natural gas, though propane turns up wherever the main stops short. What makes Montgomery County distinctive is the age of the buildings: stone farmhouses and pre-war homes that were designed around radiators and later had ductwork threaded through them.

Those retrofits are behind a lot of the comfort complaints we are called about — rooms that never settle, and a system blamed for duct problems.

Ice left on an outdoor unit restricts airflow until the system cannot heat at all, and can damage the fan. Switch to emergency heat and call rather than chipping at it.

What happens when you call

You get the diagnostic charge before anyone is dispatched to Abington, and the repair price before any work begins. No invoice should ever be a surprise.

Heat Pump Repair in Abington — questions

Do you cover Abington for heat pump repair?

Yes. Abington in Montgomery County is inside our service area and the 19046 postal area is worked by the nearest crew. Call (215) 484-0300 at any hour, including nights, weekends and holidays.

Why does my heat pump blow cool-feeling air?

Because it delivers a larger volume of mildly warm air rather than hot blasts. Around body temperature at the register is normal and the house will still reach temperature.

Is ice on the outdoor unit normal?

Light frost between defrost cycles is. A solid shell of ice over the coil or fan is not — switch to emergency heat and call rather than chipping at it, which damages the coil.

My electricity bill doubled this winter. Is that the heat pump?

Very likely, and it usually means resistance backup is doing work the heat pump should be doing. Low charge, a failed outdoor fan, a stuck reversing valve or a misconfigured thermostat all produce that bill.

Do heat pumps work through a Montgomery County winter?

Modern cold-climate models do, with backup for the coldest stretches. Older single-stage units hand over to backup much sooner, which is where the reputation came from.
