If your Freemansburg 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.

We are 20 miles from Freemansburg at the original shop, but that is not where your technician comes from — teams work out of every part of the state so the response is local.

Common faults around Freemansburg

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 Freemansburg

Around Freemansburg the fuel is usually natural gas, though propane turns up wherever the main stops short. What makes Northampton 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.

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

If the honest answer is that the repair is not worth doing, we say so, including when a replacement would pay us considerably better. That is how the Freemansburg work has grown by recommendation.

Heat Pump Repair in Freemansburg — questions

Do you cover Freemansburg for heat pump repair?

Yes. Freemansburg in Northampton County is inside our service area and the 18017 postal area is worked by the nearest crew. Call (215) 484-0300 at any hour, including nights, weekends and holidays.

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.

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.
