Typically, heat pumps have a lifespan of approximately 15 years. Sometimes, we see systems fail sooner than this, and sometimes they last longer. There are a number of factors that impact a heat pump’s longevity, such as the brand and model, whether regular maintenance has been performed, the quality of the installation, etc. Even usage patterns and local climate will impact the duration of a system’s life.
The most obvious clue your heat pump is malfunctioning is you don’t have any heating or cooling in the home. Some problems can be more subtle, though, such as increased system noise, less heating or cooling than normal, higher utility costs, etc. If anything seems out of the ordinary, it’s probably a good idea to have the system looked at.
Deciding whether to repair an existing heat pump or replace it with a new system comes down to factors such as the unit’s age, the repair vs. new system cost, and what your budget allows. If your heat pump is near it’s expected lifespan and you’re facing an expensive repair, then it often makes more sense to invest in a new system.
Most HVAC contractors and manufacturers recommend yearly maintenance. We believe every two to three years is sufficient but are happy to perform the service as frequently as you’d like. It is important to ensure the system’s air filter is being changed routinely to avoid any system malfunctions that can arise from a plugged filtration system.
Our maintenance service includes a comprehensive inspection as well as a cleaning of the system. We clean the outdoor unit, the indoor coil (if needed), clear the system’s drain line, and change or clean the filtration system.
Typically, heat pump maintenance takes around 60-90 minutes. The duration can vary based on your heat pump’s condition and if there’s any additional required services.
