Can I service my heat pump myself safely and effectively?

You can safely do simple tasks like changing or cleaning your heat pump’s air filters. For full, effective maintenance in Brownsburg and Pittsboro, schedule a professional tune-up twice a year because heat pumps run year-round. A technician will clean coils, check refrigerant, tighten electrical connections, calibrate the thermostat, clear the condensate drain, and test the defrost and reversing valve. DIY work on refrigerant or electrical parts is not safe.

Quick checks:

  • Change or clean filters.
  • Watch for unusual noises, poor airflow, or frequent cycling.
