Heat Pump Repair in Union, PA
We handle heat pump repair throughout Union and the surrounding 17004 area, every day of the year including holidays.
If your Union 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.
Union is covered overnight and through holidays. The crew dispatched is the nearest one working Mifflin County, not whoever is free back in Plumsteadville.
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 Union
Heating in Union tends to split between gas furnaces in newer housing and hydronic systems in the older stock. Mifflin County has a good deal of nineteenth-century building still in daily use, and much of it is heated by boilers that reward proper servicing.
Propane is common enough here that tank level and regulator faults are worth ruling out before anything else on a no-heat call.
Modern cold-climate heat pumps hold useful capacity well below freezing. If yours is struggling in Union, rule out a fault before concluding the technology is at fault — low charge looks exactly like an undersized system.
What happens when you call
If the honest answer is that the repair is not worth doing, we say so, including when a replacement would pay us considerably better. That is how the Union work has grown by recommendation.

Heat Pump Repair in Union — questions
Do you cover Union for heat pump repair?
Yes. Union in Mifflin County is inside our service area and the 17004 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 Mifflin 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.
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.
