Harness the Power of Home Heat Pumps: A Comprehensive Guide
1-800-Plumber +Air of Shelton County

At 1800 Plumber, we're dedicated to providing reliable, high-quality home plumbing and infrastructure services. One of the areas we excel in is the installation and maintenance of home heat pumps. But what are heat pumps, what benefits do they offer, and how can you ensure they are properly maintained?

Heat pumps, at their core, are devices that transfer heat from one place to another. These ingenious systems work a little like refrigerators, but in reverse. Instead of cooling your space, they draw on the heat from the outdoor air or the ground (depending on the type of heat pump you have) and use it to warm your home. In the summer months, this process can be reversed to cool your home, making heat pumps a versatile solution for year-round climate control.


Benefits of Heat Pumps

Energy Efficiency: One of the primary advantages of heat pumps is their superior energy efficiency. Unlike traditional heating or cooling systems that generate heat, heat pumps simply move existing heat, consuming significantly less energy in the process.

Environmentally Friendly: As a result of their high energy efficiency, heat pumps contribute to reducing your carbon footprint. With no combustion involved, there's no emission of harmful greenhouse gases.

Cost-Effective: While the upfront costs can be higher, the energy savings over time make heat pumps a cost-effective choice. The exact amount you save will depend on your local climate, the size of your home, and your heating and cooling habits.

Heating and Cooling in One: Heat pumps can both heat and cool your home, reducing the need for separate systems and making them a versatile choice for all-season comfort.

Easy to Use and Quiet Operation: Modern heat pumps typically come with user-friendly digital controls and programmable thermostats. They are also quieter than most traditional HVAC systems, providing comfort without the noise.

Heat Pump Maintenance

Regular maintenance is crucial to keep your heat pump running efficiently and prolong its lifespan. Here's what you can do:

Filter Cleaning or Replacement: Filters should be checked monthly and cleaned or replaced when necessary, usually every three months.

Outdoor Unit Maintenance: Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, snow, and other debris to allow for proper airflow.

Regular Servicing: Professional servicing should be conducted at least annually. A professional will check and clean the coils, check the refrigerant level, and inspect the entire system for any potential issues.

At 1800 Plumber, our expert technicians are ready to assist you with all your heat pump needs. From advising on the best heat pump system for your home to carrying out regular maintenance checks and any required repairs, we're committed to ensuring your heat pump runs smoothly and efficiently. With us, you can be confident in a comfortable home environment, whatever the weather.

Investing in a heat pump is a forward-thinking choice for both your comfort and the environment. Embrace the future of home heating and cooling with 1800 Plumber. Contact us today to learn more about how we can support you on your heat pump journey.

Heat Pump Maintenance

Heat pumps are electric systems that require normal upkeep to ensure they run at their highest capability.

To help keep your heating & cooling system running, you need to:

  • Keep your coils clean
  • Monitor refrigerant levels
  • Inspect the electrical components
  • Monitor your operational controls


Fortunately, when you conduct your annual HVAC inspection, your technician will check these components to ensure your heat pump if functional.

Maintaining your heat pump is critical for the operation of your HVAC system, identifying issues early makes it simpler to solve them. Some of the common heat pump issues include:

  • Sudden loss of heat
  • Incorrect cycling
  • Making strange noises


If you let these go on too long, they can break the heat pump. Typically, if you need to replace your heat pump, you must replace the entire system, including both the outdoor condensing unit and the coil in your furnace.

Routine Heat Pump Maintenance is a Must

We had to have someone come out today due to a sink and toilet leak. Swayze McLauglin was our plumber and he did a great job explaining the problem and how we could get it fixed. He was great at explaining price as well as what he was doing. Swayze was friendly and professional while he was here as well as working in these trying times with COVID-19 he followed all procedures and was great. We will be using yall the next time we need someone. Thank you so much Swayze for all your help!

Detailed orientated and honest inspection. Chad took his time and explained everything that was going on very well. The service fee was fair for the small issues he fixed, and he was able to make a referral for water restoration for us, I would use his service again and plan to when our water heater goes out.
