A technician working on an opened heat pump outdoor unit with the fan exposed, at a rural Pennsylvania property.

A heat pump works all winter in Walker, which means its outdoor unit has to stay clear of snow and meltwater in a way an air conditioner never does. A good share of our winter calls here start there.

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.

Common faults around Walker

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 Walker

Heating in Walker tends to split between gas furnaces in newer housing and hydronic systems in the older stock. Juniata 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.

Refrigerant is not consumed. If a Walker system is low, it is leaking, and topping it up without finding the leak means paying for the same repair next season.

Heat Pump Repair in Walker — questions

Do you cover Walker for heat pump repair?

Yes. Walker in Juniata County is inside our service area and the 17059 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.

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.
