Heat Pump Repair in Chevy Chase Heights, PA
Heat Pump Repair for Chevy Chase Heights properties, on call around the clock. Call (215) 484-0300 and describe what the system is doing.
If your Chevy Chase Heights 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.
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.
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 Chevy Chase Heights
Natural gas is abundant across south-western Pennsylvania, and Chevy Chase Heights is almost entirely gas-heated as a result. The housing stock around Indiana 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.
Refrigerant is not consumed. If a Chevy Chase Heights system is low, it is leaking, and topping it up without finding the leak means paying for the same repair next season.

Heat Pump Repair in Chevy Chase Heights — questions
Do you cover Chevy Chase Heights for heat pump repair?
Yes. Chevy Chase Heights in Indiana County is inside our service area and the 15701 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.
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.
