Heat pumps are going into Manheim 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.

Manheim is covered overnight and through holidays. The crew dispatched is the nearest one working Lancaster County, not whoever is free back in Plumsteadville.

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 Manheim

Natural gas covers most of south-eastern Pennsylvania, and in Lancaster 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 Manheim construction, and dual-fuel setups pairing a heat pump with a gas furnace suit this climate well.

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

You get the diagnostic charge before anyone is dispatched to Manheim, and the repair price before any work begins. No invoice should ever be a surprise.

Manheim sits in Lancaster County, and we cover all of it: the built-up streets near Manheim Township High School and the outlying properties on unmarked lanes alike.

Heat Pump Repair in Manheim — questions

Do you cover Manheim for heat pump repair?

Yes. Manheim in Lancaster County is inside our service area and the 17601 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.

Do heat pumps work through a Lancaster 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.

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.
