What to know about Heat pump repair
Heat pump repair is mostly a winter story in Canada. The same outdoor unit that cools the house in July has to pull heat out of freezing air in January, clear its own coil of frost several times a day and hand over to backup heat when it runs out of capacity. When any of those steps goes wrong, the result is an iced-up unit, cold air at the registers or a backup system that never seems to shut off.

How to choose HVAC technicians in Strathcona County
- Hire a technician who is licensed for heating, cooling and gas work in your province.
- For a new system, ask for a load calculation for your home rather than a size based on the old unit.
- Get written quotes that list the equipment, ductwork changes, removal of the old unit and any electrical work.
- Ask how they handle service calls and repairs after installation, including in the middle of winter.
- Compare the full scope of each quote, not only the equipment on it.

No. Requesting quotes doesn’t commit you to anything. Compare your options and hire only if someone is the right fit.
