Missouri winters bring snow, ice, and freezing temperatures. Missouri summers are sunny, hot, and humid. With weather on both ends of the spectrum, if a heat pump is how you heat and cool your home or commercial building, it would benefit you to learn the signs of a failing heat pump. If you need heat pump repair in Kirkwood, MO, or the surrounding area, our experts at Scott-Lee Heating Company are here to deliver industry-leading heat pump service.

    Our Heat Pump Repair Service in Kirkwood, MO

    If you currently have a heat pump in your home or office building, you likely enjoy comfortable temperatures throughout the year. However, if you notice temperatures becoming inconsistent, your heat pump may be in trouble. If your heat pump is no longer functioning like it once did, it may be time to contact an expert to repair it.

    Here are several prominent signs that indicate your heat pump’s ability to function is beginning to deteriorate.
    • Temperatures becoming inconsistent
    • Moldy or burning odors when the heat pump is on
    • A sudden spike in your electric bill without a corresponding increase in usage
    • Unusual banging and clanging sounds

    Heat pumps may last many years before needing anything more than preventive maintenance. On the other hand, a heat pump is like any other mechanical system in that, at some point, it will need repairs. A heat pump can be as old as 10 to 15 years before it begins to show signs of needing help. Once it reaches that age range, you will likely start to notice your heat pump showing significant signs of deterioration creeping in.

    If you suspect you need heat pump service, you need to contact a professional as soon as the signs present themselves. If you seek help from an HVAC technician shortly after you notice the key signs of a failing heat pump, the repair cost is likely to be significantly lower than if you were to wait. The longer you wait, the greater the possibility that a minor issue will become a major problem. Or one issue could lead to another until the heat pump fails completely.

    There are times when a heat pump doesn’t present any warning that something is wrong. In some instances, your heat pump can suddenly stop working without warning. When this happens, our technicians at Scott-Lee Heating Company are here to deliver emergency pump repair services. We offer emergency repair services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for all our residential and commercial customers.
