Heat Pump Repair in Lima, OH — Book a Visit Today

When a heat pump runs constantly and the house still feels cool, the problem is often a stuck reversing valve, a bad defrost board, or a refrigerant charge that has drifted. Ice on the outdoor coil in January is normal in short cycles and a problem when it never clears. We do heat pump repair for Lima homes, including the ones where auxiliary heat has quietly been carrying the load and running the bill up. Clear leaves and snow away from the outdoor unit, then call us. The quote form works too if you would rather type it out.

Heat Pump Repair in Lima — quick answers

Why is my heat pump blowing cool air in winter?

Usually the reversing valve is stuck in cooling, the charge is low, or the backup heat is not staging in. It can also be a normal defrost cycle, which lasts a few minutes. If it lasts longer, call us for heating repair.

Is ice on the outdoor unit normal?

A light frost that clears every hour or so is normal. A solid block of ice that never melts means the defrost cycle is not working, often a sensor, board or fan motor. Shut the system off at the thermostat and call us.

Can you repair my heat pump or does it need replacing?

Most heat pumps are worth repairing. We look at the age, the failed part, the condition of the compressor and coils, and whether the refrigerant is still available, then give you both options and what we would do.

What is a dual-fuel system and why does mine short cycle?

Dual fuel pairs a heat pump with a gas furnace and switches between them at a set outdoor temperature. Short cycling usually traces to changeover wiring, a failed outdoor sensor, or thermostat settings that do not match the equipment.

How soon can you get to my house in Lima?

Call us and we will give you the next available window rather than a vague promise. No-heat and no-cooling calls get moved up, especially during a cold snap or a humid stretch in July. If you are waiting, check that the thermostat has fresh batteries and is set correctly, look for a tripped breaker, and make sure your filter is not clogged and the vents are open.

How it works

Step 1
Tell us the symptom
Call or fill in the quote form and describe what changed. Warm air, no air, a smell, a noise, a breaker that keeps tripping. Details on the phone shorten the visit considerably.
Step 2
We diagnose on site
A technician checks the thermostat, airflow, electrical connections, the outdoor unit and the heat exchanger side before naming a cause. You get the finding in plain words, not a parts list you cannot read.
Step 3
You approve the repair
We explain what failed, what it takes to fix it, and what happens if you wait. Nothing gets replaced without your say so. Most common repairs are handled the same visit.

Why homeowners call us

Old housing stock is normal hereBasements with converted octopus trunk lines, ducts retrofitted around joists, returns that were never sized right. We work in these houses constantly and we size the repair to the house you actually have.
Long heating seasonsFurnaces in this region run hard from October into April, and lake effect stretches it further. We know what wear looks like at that mileage, from cracked igniters to blower motors that have been dragging for two winters.
Cooling and heating bothOne crew for air conditioning repair and heating repair. The same ductwork moves air in July and January, so a technician who understands both sides catches problems a single-season contractor tends to walk past.
Plain talk about repair versus replaceSometimes a part fixes it for years. Sometimes you are putting money into a system that is done. We tell you which one we think you are looking at and why, then leave the decision with you.
