Heat Pump Repair in South Whitehall, PA
Heat Pump Repair for South Whitehall properties, on call around the clock. Call (215) 484-0300 and describe what the system is doing.
If your South Whitehall 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.
Round-the-clock availability is standard marketing in this trade and usually means a message taken until morning. In South Whitehall it means somebody answers and somebody comes.
Common faults around South Whitehall
Snow and meltwater are the local complication. An outdoor unit under a roofline that drips will refreeze into a block of ice, and chipping at it damages the coil fins and turns a control repair into a sealed-system repair.
Heating and cooling around South Whitehall
Around South Whitehall the fuel is usually natural gas, though propane turns up wherever the main stops short. What makes Lehigh 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.
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.

Heat Pump Repair in South Whitehall — questions
Do you cover South Whitehall for heat pump repair?
Yes. South Whitehall in Lehigh County is inside our service area and the 18104 postal area is worked by the nearest crew. Call (215) 484-0300 at any hour, including nights, weekends and holidays.
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.
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.
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.
