Heat Pump Repair in Union, PA
Plumsteadville HVAC Pros covers Union for heat pump repair, 218 miles from the original Plumsteadville shop and a good deal closer than that in practice.
Defrost cycles, long run times and air that feels cool at the register are all normal. Ice encasing the outdoor unit and auxiliary heat running on a mild day are not. We sort out which is which for Union homeowners.
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 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 Union
Properties around Union are spread out, often on propane or oil, and frequently a long way from the nearest supplier. Reliability counts for more than efficiency ratings when a cold snap settles over Jefferson County for a fortnight.
We see a lot of wood and pellet backup here too, which changes how the primary system is used and how it wears.
A heat pump leaning on resistance backup costs real money every day it does it. A Union electricity bill that has jumped is usually the first evidence of a fault nobody has noticed.
What happens when you call
Diagnosis first, price second, work third. Most Union 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.
Union sits in Jefferson County, and we cover all of it: the built-up streets near Oaks School and the outlying properties on unmarked lanes alike.

Heat Pump Repair in Union — questions
Do you cover Union for heat pump repair?
Yes. Union in Jefferson County is inside our service area and the 15825 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.
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.
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.
