Heat Pump Repair in Clifton Heights, PA
We handle heat pump repair throughout Clifton Heights and the surrounding 19018 area, every day of the year including holidays.
If your Clifton 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.
Emergency work in Clifton Heights runs at any hour, every day of the year, including holidays. Call (215) 484-0300 and we will tell you honestly how soon we can be there.
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 Clifton Heights
Around Clifton Heights the fuel is usually natural gas, though propane turns up wherever the main stops short. What makes Delaware 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.
A heat pump leaning on resistance backup costs real money every day it does it. A Clifton Heights electricity bill that has jumped is usually the first evidence of a fault nobody has noticed.
What happens when you call
We show you what we found. That matters most when the answer is bad news — a condemned system should come with evidence, not just an assertion.

Heat Pump Repair in Clifton Heights — questions
Do you cover Clifton Heights for heat pump repair?
Yes. Clifton Heights in Delaware County is inside our service area and the 19018 postal area is worked by the nearest crew. Call (215) 484-0300 at any hour, including nights, weekends and holidays.
Do heat pumps work through a Delaware 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.
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.
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.
