Common Problems We Solve
Heat Pump Won't Heat
If your heat pump blows cold air in winter or won't switch to heating mode, it could be a reversing valve issue, low refrigerant, or defrost cycle problem. Our technicians diagnose heating failures quickly.
Heat Pump Won't Cool
When your heat pump fails to cool in summer, the issue could be refrigerant leaks, compressor problems, or dirty coils. We restore cooling performance efficiently.
Frozen Coils
Ice buildup on outdoor or indoor coils indicates airflow problems, refrigerant issues, or defrost control failures. We identify and fix the root cause.
Strange Noises
Grinding, squealing, or banging noises signal mechanical problems like worn bearings, loose components, or compressor issues requiring immediate attention.
High Energy Bills
Reduced efficiency causes heat pumps to run longer and consume more energy. We diagnose efficiency losses from dirty filters, refrigerant leaks, or aging components.
Short Cycling
If your heat pump turns on and off frequently, it could be thermostat issues, refrigerant problems, or oversized equipment. We fix cycling problems to restore efficiency.
Won't Turn On
Electrical issues, thermostat problems, or safety switch trips prevent heat pumps from starting. Our diagnostic service identifies why your heat pump won't run.
Blowing Lukewarm Air
When your heat pump produces lukewarm air instead of hot or cold, it indicates refrigerant issues, reversing valve problems, or low airflow needing professional repair.

How much does heat pump repair cost in Ottawa?
Heat pump repair costs vary depending on the problem.

Can you repair my heat pump the same day?
Yes, we offer same-day heat pump repair service for most calls in the Ottawa area. When you call before noon, we can usually schedule a technician visit the same day. For emergency heating or cooling failures, our 24/7 service ensures you get help when you need it most, regardless of the time or day.
Should I repair or replace my heat pump?
This depends on the age of your heat pump, repair cost, and efficiency. Generally, if your heat pump is under 10 years old and the repair costs less than 50% of replacement, repair is more economical. For heat pumps over 12-15 years old with major component failures, replacement with a modern, efficient model may be the better investment. Our technicians will provide honest recommendations based on your situation.
Why is my heat pump not heating in winter?
Common causes include frozen outdoor coils (normal in cold weather, but the defrost cycle should clear them), low refrigerant levels, faulty reversing valves that prevent switching to heating mode, or backup heat not activating. In extreme cold below -15°C to -25°C (depending on the model), older heat pumps may struggle. Our technicians diagnose heating problems quickly and restore warmth to your home.
Do you repair all heat pump brands?
Yes, our certified technicians repair all major heat pump brands including Carrier, Bryant, Lennox, Trane, Mitsubishi, Daikin, Fujitsu, Goodman, Amana, and more. We stock common parts and can order specialized components quickly. Whether you have a ducted central heat pump or ductless mini-split system, we have the expertise to repair it properly.
Is there a warranty on heat pump repairs?
Yes, all our heat pump repairs come with warranties on both parts and labor. Parts warranties vary by manufacturer (typically 1-5 years), and our labor warranty covers the workmanship. We stand behind our repairs with 100% satisfaction guaranteed. If you experience issues after our repair, we'll make it right.
Why is my heat pump making loud noises?
Different noises indicate different problems. Squealing often means worn bearings or belt issues. Grinding suggests motor problems. Banging or clanking indicates loose components or debris in the unit. Hissing could be a refrigerant leak. Any unusual noise warrants professional inspection to prevent further damage. Contact us for diagnostic service to identify and fix the source of the noise.
How can I prevent heat pump breakdowns?
Regular maintenance is key to preventing heat pump failures. Schedule annual tune-ups, change air filters monthly during heavy use, keep outdoor units clear of debris and snow, and address small issues before they become major problems. Our maintenance plans include comprehensive inspections, cleaning, and adjustments that extend heat pump life and reduce breakdowns by up to 95%.
