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 Schuylkill County, not whoever is free back in Plumsteadville.

The usual suspects

A unit encased in ice means defrost is not working. Cooling fine but not heating points squarely at the reversing valve. Auxiliary heat on a mild day means the heat pump is not pulling its weight, and charge is the first thing to check.

Heating and cooling around Union

Schuylkill County runs on a genuine mix: natural gas where the main reaches, oil and propane where it does not. In Union that means a technician has to be equally comfortable with a cad cell and a flame sensor.

This is also anthracite country, and a handful of properties still have the chimney and flue arrangements of much older heating systems, which affects how modern equipment vents.

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.

Heat Pump Repair in Union — questions

Do you cover Union for heat pump repair?

Yes. Union in Schuylkill County is inside our service area and the 17967 postal area is worked by the nearest crew. Call (215) 484-0300 at any hour, including nights, weekends and holidays.

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.

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.

Do heat pumps work through a Schuylkill 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.
