Call it Murphy’s Law, or maybe just a little misfortune, but we sometimes see heat pump issues in Northglenn during the cooler months, when they’re necessary to keep you toasty. While you know the team at Northglenn Heating & Air Conditioning, Inc. will forever be there ASAP when you require us for a heat pump repair, there are some things you can do to double check a repair is necessary and save yourself some cash if it’s not. We’ve gathered this checklist of things to try before you give us a call.
- It may sound ridiculous, but make sure everything is set to “on”. We’ve been to numerous calls only to realize the thermostat or the heat pump itself is turned off.
- Is the thermostat turned to heat? If yes, increase the temperature by five degrees to see if it kicks on.
- If everything looks right, inspect your heat pump switch (if it has one) and check the fuses and circuit breaker that guard the extra heating element (if it has one).
- If the heat pump still hasn’t turned on, return to your thermostat.
- Try replacing the battery, if it has one.
- Is an impasse causing your heat pump to not work?
- Inspect your air filters inside your air handler to ensure they’re not jamming things up.
- Are your room heating registers open and unobstructed?
If you’ve worked through this checklist and you still need a heat pump fix, call Northglenn Heating & Air Conditioning, Inc. at 303-452-4146 and we’ll return your home back to the warm and cozy place you expect this time of year.
