Heat pumps are going into Ridley 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.

Describe the symptom rather than the part. Working out which component that points at is our job, and it is faster over the phone than you might expect.

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 Ridley

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 Ridley construction, and dual-fuel setups pairing a heat pump with a gas furnace suit this climate well.

Refrigerant is not consumed. If a Ridley 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

Diagnosis first, price second, work third. Most Ridley jobs are finished on the first visit; where a part has to be ordered we tell you what the house can safely run on in the meantime.

Our Heat Pump Repair coverage takes in the whole 19033 area, from the streets around Ridley Park out to the addresses satellite navigation struggles with. Describing a nearby landmark is often faster than an address.

Heat Pump Repair in Ridley — questions

Do you cover Ridley for heat pump repair?

Yes. Ridley in Delaware County is inside our service area and the 19033 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 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.

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.

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.
