Heat pumps are an incredibly energy-efficient and cost-effective way to heat and cool your home. However, like any other major home appliance, your heat pump needs regular care and maintenance to operate efficiently and effectively. A problem with your heat pump doesn’t need to cause inconvenience or discomfort. At Aire Serv of Jefferson City, we are a locally owned and operated heat pump service company specializing in heavy pump installation and heat pump replacement. Our service technicians have years of experience providing quality, reliable heat pump service in Jefferson City, MO and surrounding areas. We can help you determine whether a heat pump is right for your home compared to other heating and cooling systems. We can also replace heat pumps that are old, faulty, or inefficient.
Heat Pumps We Service
Our experienced service technicians can inspect, diagnose, maintain, repair, install, and replace all major brands and models of heat pumps. We service these two primary types of heat pumps:
Air-source heat pumps
Ducted air-source heat pumps are the most common types used. They transfer heat from between your home and the outside air. They require ductwork to operate, or you can choose a ductless model.
Geothermal heat pumps
Geothermal heat pumps are even more energy efficient and transfer heat between your house and the ground or a water source. They are more complicated and expensive to install but have much lower operating costs.
The Benefits of Professional Heat Pump Installation
A heat pump is a heating and cooling system for your home that is very cost-effective and energy-efficient. During the summer, the heat pump uses the same type of technology as an air conditioner. It uses electricity to extract heat from the surrounding air or in the ground around your home and then transfers the heat elsewhere, typically outdoors, so the air in your home is cooler. During the winter, it moves heat from warmer areas into the colder areas of your home. Heat pumps use refrigerant to cool or heat this air to the optimal temperature. Because heat pumps move heat from one area to another instead of generating heat using a fuel source, they use much lower levels of energy to operate. Installing an air-source heat pump can lower your energy bills by 65% compared to other heating and cooling systems. Installing a geothermal heat pump can lower energy bills by 70-80%. Heat pumps also offer superior dehumidification than central air conditioners, which results in further energy savings.
Warning Signs You Need Heat Pump Replacement
Scheduling routine heat pump maintenance will extend the lifespan of your heat pump and reduce the risk of needing heat pump replacement. However, most heat pumps last around 15 years before they start operating less efficiently. Call our team of service technicians for an inspection and diagnosis if you notice any of these signs you need heat pump replacement:
- Strange noises from your vents or heat pump
- Strange smells in your home or coming from your vents
- Increased heating or cooling bills for no reason
