Heat Pump Repair in Lehigh, PA
heat pump repair in Lehigh, PA 18088 — diagnosed before it is quoted, priced before the work starts.
Defrost cycles, long run times and air that feels cool at the register are all normal. Ice encasing the outdoor unit and auxiliary heat running on a mild day are not. We sort out which is which for Lehigh homeowners.
Emergency work in Lehigh 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 we usually find
Defrost control boards and sensors, reversing valves that will not switch, failed outdoor fan motors, run capacitors, and refrigerant charge low enough that auxiliary heat is carrying the house.
Heating and cooling around Lehigh
Around Lehigh 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.
Refrigerant is not consumed. If a Lehigh 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 Lehigh, and the repair price before any work begins. No invoice should ever be a surprise.

Heat Pump Repair in Lehigh — questions
Do you cover Lehigh for heat pump repair?
Yes. Lehigh in Northampton County is inside our service area and the 18088 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 Northampton 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.
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.
Why does my heat pump blow cool-feeling air?
Because it delivers a larger volume of mildly warm air rather than hot blasts. Around body temperature at the register is normal and the house will still reach temperature.
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.
