Our Detailed Heat Pump Maintenance Process

A heat pump tune-up is a meticulous process that addresses both the indoor and outdoor components of your system. Because it functions as both an air conditioner and a heater, a thorough maintenance check is crucial to verify that all parts are working correctly for both cooling and heating cycles.

• Outdoor Unit (Condenser) Cleaning: The technician will thoroughly clean the outdoor coil, removing dirt, leaves, and debris that can obstruct airflow and drastically reduce efficiency. The unit's base pan will also be cleared to ensure proper drainage.
• Refrigerant Level Check: An incorrect refrigerant charge is a primary cause of poor performance and system strain. The technician will check the refrigerant levels and pressures to ensure they meet the manufacturer's exact specifications for optimal operation.
• Electrical and Mechanical Inspection: All electrical connections will be tightened, and capacitors, relays, and contacts will be inspected for wear. The motors and bearings for both the indoor and outdoor fans will be lubricated as needed to reduce friction.
• Thermostat and Reversing Valve Test: The thermostat will be calibrated to ensure it is communicating properly with the system. Critically, the technician will test the reversing valve to confirm the unit can switch seamlessly between its heating and cooling modes.
• Indoor Unit (Air Handler) Inspection: The indoor coil will be inspected for cleanliness, and the condensate drain line will be flushed to prevent clogs that can cause water damage and shut down the system. The air filter will also be inspected and replaced.

This comprehensive inspection and tune-up ensures every aspect of your hard-working heat pump is ready to perform efficiently and reliably, no matter what the Florida weather brings.

Why Year-Round Maintenance is Crucial for Your Heat Pump

At Spartan Air Solutions, we emphasize proactive care because your heat pump is the single hardest-working appliance in your home. Unlike separate AC units and furnaces, it never gets a season off. Our professional maintenance service is specifically designed to address the unique demands of this year-round operation.

• Lower Energy Bills All Year: An efficient heat pump saves you money every month. Our tune-ups ensure coils are clean and refrigerant levels are perfect, which can lower your energy consumption by up to 25%, providing significant savings on both cooling and heating costs.
• Prevent Unexpected Breakdowns: System failures are always inconvenient and expensive. By inspecting and tuning up all electrical and mechanical parts, we can identify and fix worn components before they fail, saving you from a system breakdown on the hottest summer day or a chilly winter night.
