Heat Pump Repair in South Bend, IN

Signs Your Heat Pump Needs Repairs

Issues with heat pumps don’t go away on their own, and ignoring them for too long can cause worse issues to develop. If you notice any of the following problems, call Goff for heat pump repairs right away. 

Rising Energy Costs

A heat pump is incredibly efficient when working properly, but when something is broken it has to use more energy to effectively heat or cool your home. This will be reflected in your utility bills. 

Not Reaching the Thermostat’s Setting

If the temperature in your home does not match the temperature you set on your thermostat, it could signal an issue with your heat pump. Make sure your thermostat is set to the correct mode, and if it still can’t reach your desired temperature, give the HVAC professionals at Goff a call.

Making Strange Noises

Banging, rattling, hissing, whooshing, or buzzing noises coming from your heat pump are reasons to be concerned. Many times, noises indicate loose parts or connections. Turn off your heat pump to prevent further damage, and then call an HVAC professional to investigate further.

Emitting Strong Odors

Does your home smell like a gym locker room? This odor is often a sign of mold growing on your evaporator cables or within your home’s ducts. Fish, burning, or sewage odors can indicate big problems like a gas leak or a mechanical issue. 

Won’t Turn On

When air filters become clogged with dust, pet hair, debris, and other contaminants, they can prevent fresh air from flowing into your system. If your heat pump won’t turn on and you can’t remember the last time you changed your air filter, try that first. You can buy most air filters at your local hardware store. If you’ve changed the air filter and your unit still won’t kick on, then call the professional HVAC technicians at Goff.
