Heat Pump Not Heating? Emergency Repair Service
When your heat pump fails to produce adequate heat, your home becomes uncomfortable quickly. Heat pump heating failures require specific diagnostic knowledge to identify and repair.
Heat Pump Heating Failures
Heat pumps can fail to heat properly for several reasons: refrigerant leaks, a failed reversing valve, a faulty defrost board, compressor issues, or frozen outdoor coils. Because heat pumps operate differently in heating mode than cooling mode, specialized diagnostic skills are required.
When Your Heat Pump Runs but Does Not Heat
If the indoor unit is running but the air is cool or lukewarm, the heat pump may be stuck in cooling mode due to a reversing valve failure, or the system may have lost its refrigerant charge. In either case, professional diagnosis is needed.

Safety Reminder
If you smell gas, suspect carbon monoxide or believe there is an immediate danger, leave the property and contact emergency services or the appropriate gas emergency authority. Do not remain inside — exit the building immediately and call for help from outside.
