Heat Pump Repair in West Hanover, PA
Heat Pump Repair in West Hanover, Dauphin County, at any hour. The 17112 area is worked by the nearest crew rather than dispatched from across the state.
A heat pump works all winter in West Hanover, 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.
West Hanover is covered overnight and through holidays. The crew dispatched is the nearest one working Dauphin 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 West Hanover
Heating in West Hanover tends to split between gas furnaces in newer housing and hydronic systems in the older stock. Dauphin 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.
A heat pump leaning on resistance backup costs real money every day it does it. A West Hanover electricity bill that has jumped is usually the first evidence of a fault nobody has noticed.

Heat Pump Repair in West Hanover — questions
Do you cover West Hanover for heat pump repair?
Yes. West Hanover in Dauphin County is inside our service area and the 17112 postal area is worked by the nearest crew. Call (215) 484-0300 at any hour, including nights, weekends and holidays.
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 Dauphin 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.
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.
