A technician working on an opened heat pump outdoor unit with the fan exposed, at a rural Pennsylvania property.

If your Atlas 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.

Round-the-clock availability is standard marketing in this trade and usually means a message taken until morning. In Atlas it means somebody answers and somebody comes.

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 Atlas

Northumberland County runs on a genuine mix: natural gas where the main reaches, oil and propane where it does not. In Atlas that means a technician has to be equally comfortable with a cad cell and a flame sensor.

This is also anthracite country, and a handful of properties still have the chimney and flue arrangements of much older heating systems, which affects how modern equipment vents.

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 Atlas, and the repair price before any work begins. No invoice should ever be a surprise.

Heat Pump Repair in Atlas — questions

Do you cover Atlas for heat pump repair?

Yes. Atlas in Northumberland County is inside our service area and the 17851 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.

Do heat pumps work through a Northumberland 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.
