Heat Pump Repair in Allison Park, PA
We handle heat pump repair throughout Allison Park and the surrounding 15101 area, every day of the year including holidays.
If your Allison Park 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.
Call (215) 484-0300 at any hour and a person answers. No menu, no answering service, and no callback queue for a Allison Park house with no heat.
What goes wrong
Thermostat configuration is a quiet and expensive fault. A thermostat replaced without setting up heat pump staging will run resistance heat far more than it needs to, and nothing about the system looks broken.
Heating and cooling around Allison Park
Natural gas is abundant across south-western Pennsylvania, and Allison Park is almost entirely gas-heated as a result. The housing stock around Allegheny County leans heavily on mid-century construction, so a large share of what we repair is forced-air furnaces of a similar vintage and layout.
River valley properties bring their own complication: damp basements, corroded flues and condensate lines that need more attention than they usually get.
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
Diagnosis first, price second, work third. Most Allison Park jobs are finished on the first visit; where a part has to be ordered we tell you what the house can safely run on in the meantime.

Heat Pump Repair in Allison Park — questions
Do you cover Allison Park for heat pump repair?
Yes. Allison Park in Allegheny County is inside our service area and the 15101 postal area is worked by the nearest crew. Call (215) 484-0300 at any hour, including nights, weekends and holidays.
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 Allegheny 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.
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.
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.
