Heat Pump Repair in Lansdowne, PA
We handle heat pump repair throughout Lansdowne and the surrounding 19050 area, every day of the year including holidays.
If your Lansdowne 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 32 miles from Lansdowne 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.
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 Lansdowne
Natural gas covers most of south-eastern Pennsylvania, and in Delaware County that means gas furnaces and gas-fired boilers make up the bulk of what we service. The older housing here still holds a remarkable number of hot water and steam systems feeding cast iron radiators — systems worth maintaining rather than tearing out.
Heat pumps are arriving quickly in newer Lansdowne construction, and dual-fuel setups pairing a heat pump with a gas furnace suit this climate well.
Refrigerant is not consumed. If a Lansdowne system is low, it is leaking, and topping it up without finding the leak means paying for the same repair next season.
What happens when you call
You get the diagnostic charge before anyone is dispatched to Lansdowne, and the repair price before any work begins. No invoice should ever be a surprise.

Heat Pump Repair in Lansdowne — questions
Do you cover Lansdowne for heat pump repair?
Yes. Lansdowne in Delaware County is inside our service area and the 19050 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.
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.
