Heat Pump Repair in Hummelstown, PA
Heat Pump Repair for Hummelstown properties, on call around the clock. Call (215) 484-0300 and describe what the system is doing.
Heat pumps are going into Hummelstown properties in real numbers now, and they generate more worried phone calls per unit than anything else we service — mostly because normal cold-weather behaviour looks like a fault to anyone used to a furnace.
Emergency work in Hummelstown 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.
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 Hummelstown
Heating in Hummelstown tends to split between gas furnaces in newer housing and hydronic systems in the older stock. Dauphin County has a good deal of nineteenth-century building still in daily use, and much of it is heated by boilers that reward proper servicing.
Propane is common enough here that tank level and regulator faults are worth ruling out before anything else on a no-heat call.
A heat pump leaning on resistance backup costs real money every day it does it. A Hummelstown 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 Hummelstown — questions
Do you cover Hummelstown for heat pump repair?
Yes. Hummelstown in Dauphin County is inside our service area and the 17036 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.
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.
