Heat Pump Maintenance
Like all heating and cooling systems, proper maintenance is key to efficient operation. The difference between the energy consumption of a well-maintained heat pump and a severely neglected one ranges from 10% to 25%.
Most manufacturers recommend an annual maintenance check from a qualified technical for warranty purposes. At Bens, our standard heat pump maintenance includes:
- Inspection of ducts, filters, blower, and indoor coil for dirt and other obstructions
- Diagnosis and sealing of any duct leakage
- Verification of adequate airflow by measurement
- Verification and correction of refrigerant charge by measurement
- Check for refrigerant leaks
- Inspection of electric terminals, and, if necessary, cleaning and tightening of connections, and application nonconductive coating
- Lubrication of motors, and inspect belts for tightness and wear
- Verification of correct electric control, making sure that heating is locked out when the thermostat calls for cooling and vice versa
- Verification and correction of thermostat operation.
