Heat Pump Repairs
Heat pumps are a durable and practical approach to heating and cooling, working by extracting warmth from outside to move indoors or by removing the heat inside your home. Scheduling regular repairs and maintenance can keep your system running year-round. If you notice heating and cooling interruptions or other heat pump problems, Aire Serv of the Central Shenandoah Valley can help. We’ll inspect the unit and its accompanying parts, including providing duct cleaning and thermostat repair and installation service, and determine the source of the issue. Once identified, we’ll make heat pump repairs to restore your building to a comfortable temperature. If your filter, refrigerant, valves, or other heat pump components require replacement, we’ll make sure to arrive with replacement parts and ready to find a solution for your broken system. In some cases, repair costs or breakages are high enough that we recommend heat pump replacement to ensure better performance over time and a longer lifespan. Our experts are also available anytime when you need emergency heat pump repairs.

Heat Pump Replacement and Installation
Our service professionals offer heat pump replacement services, offering a solution to remove old, outdated units and installing a brand-new one. Upgrading your system can vary in time based on what type of unit you choose. Since an air-source pump is similar to installing a central air conditioner, it can be a reasonably straightforward process, sometimes taking as little as an afternoon to install properly. A geothermal unit can be a bit more tricky due to its dependency on groundwork around the home. If you are replacing or installing a geothermal system, we will examine your plot of land and subsoil, checking that everything is in order before we proceed.
What is The Difference Between a Heat Pump & a Furnace?
A furnace depends on a burner to heat your property, whereas a heat pump functions using existing temperature. In warm summer months, your furnace is not used as frequently, lying dormant for months of the year. A heat pump, however, can be of use year-round, changing its needs based on the season and occupants of the home. Heat pumps are highly functional and eco-friendly since they don’t rely on wood, oil, or natural gas. Most heat pumps include a dehumidifier function to lower indoor humidity levels, a process that can be useful during Virginia’s warmer months.
Types of Heat Pumps
Air-Source Heat Pumps
Air-source pumps do not burn fuel while generating their warmth. They depend on the temperatures outside to warm and cool a home. Due to their ability to distribute hot and cold air, they can double as central air conditioners and furnaces in one unit.
Geothermal Heat Pumps
Geothermal heat pumps work by harnessing warmth from the ground to produce heat. They are the cheapest, most efficient form of HVAC system currently available. Although geothermal systems are usually more expensive to purchase and install, they are inexpensive to run and last for decades, making them a long-lasting investment. The most common types of geothermal systems use horizontal, vertical, or lake ground loops.
