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

Defrost cycles, long run times and air that feels cool at the register are all normal. Ice encasing the outdoor unit and auxiliary heat running on a mild day are not. We sort out which is which for Canton homeowners.

Describe the symptom rather than the part. Working out which component that points at is our job, and it is faster over the phone than you might expect.

Common faults around Canton

Snow and meltwater are the local complication. An outdoor unit under a roofline that drips will refreeze into a block of ice, and chipping at it damages the coil fins and turns a control repair into a sealed-system repair.

Heating and cooling around Canton

Around Canton the fuel is nearly always natural gas, which keeps running costs low and makes high-efficiency furnaces an easy argument. What it does not solve is venting — converting an older Washington County home to a condensing furnace often means dealing with the water heater left behind on a shared chimney.

That detail belongs in the quote, and we raise it before the work rather than after.

A heat pump leaning on resistance backup costs real money every day it does it. A Canton electricity bill that has jumped is usually the first evidence of a fault nobody has noticed.

Heat Pump Repair in Canton — questions

Do you cover Canton for heat pump repair?

Yes. Canton in Washington County is inside our service area and the 15301 postal area is worked by the nearest crew. Call (215) 484-0300 at any hour, including nights, weekends and holidays.

What is the difference between auxiliary and emergency heat?

Auxiliary assists the heat pump automatically. Emergency switches the heat pump off entirely and runs only the backup — expensive, and a stopgap rather than a setting to leave on.

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 Washington 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.

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.
