Heat Pump Repair in Swatara, PA
Plumsteadville HVAC Pros covers Swatara for heat pump repair, 70 miles from the original Plumsteadville shop and a good deal closer than that in practice.
If your Swatara 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 Swatara it means somebody answers and somebody comes.
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 Swatara
south-central Pennsylvania sits on a fuel boundary. Around Swatara natural gas serves the built-up areas while propane and oil cover the farms and the properties between them, so we stock for all three.
Agricultural buildings and farmhouses in Lebanon County often run oversized equipment installed when the building was far draughtier than it is now, which causes short cycling and uneven heat.

Diagnosis first, price second, work third. Most Swatara 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.

Heat Pump Repair in Swatara — questions
Do you cover Swatara for heat pump repair?
Yes. Swatara in Lebanon County is inside our service area and the 17038 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.
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.
