We work on air-source heat pumps and dual-fuel setups throughout Pittsburgh, including the thermostat configuration that decides when the system hands over to backup — a setting that quietly costs money all winter when it is wrong.

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

What goes wrong

Thermostat configuration is a quiet and expensive fault. A thermostat replaced without setting up heat pump staging will run resistance heat far more than it needs to, and nothing about the system looks broken.

Heating and cooling around Pittsburgh

Around Pittsburgh the fuel is nearly always natural gas, which keeps running costs low and makes high-efficiency furnaces an easy argument. What it does not solve is venting — converting an older Allegheny County home to a condensing furnace often means dealing with the water heater left behind on a shared chimney.

That detail belongs in the quote, and we raise it before the work rather than after.

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 Pittsburgh, and the repair price before any work begins. No invoice should ever be a surprise.

Our Heat Pump Repair coverage takes in the whole 15201 area, from the streets around University of Pittsburgh out to the addresses satellite navigation struggles with. Describing a nearby landmark is often faster than an address.

Heat Pump Repair in Pittsburgh — questions

Do you cover Pittsburgh for heat pump repair?

Yes. Pittsburgh in Allegheny County is inside our service area and the 15201 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.

Do heat pumps work through a Allegheny 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.

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.

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.
