Common Heat Pump Issues We Fix:

Inadequate Heating or Cooling: If your heat pump is not providing the desired temperature, it may be due to issues such as low refrigerant levels, dirty filters, or malfunctioning thermostats.
Strange Noises: Unusual sounds from your heat pump can indicate problems with the motor, blower, or other internal components.
Frequent Cycling: If your heat pump turns on and off too frequently, it could be a sign of an electrical issue or a problem with the thermostat.
Ice Buildup: Ice accumulation on the heat pump coils can hinder its efficiency and is often caused by restricted airflow or refrigerant leaks.
High Energy Bills: An inefficient heat pump can lead to increased energy consumption and higher utility bills.

Benefits of Installing a Heat Pump

Energy Efficiency: Heat pumps are highly energy-efficient, using less electricity to provide the same level of heating and cooling compared to traditional systems.
Year-Round Comfort: Heat pumps provide both heating and cooling, making them an all-in-one solution for maintaining a comfortable home environment in any season.
Environmentally Friendly: By using electricity and transferring heat rather than generating it, heat pumps reduce your carbon footprint.
Cost Savings: The energy efficiency of heat pumps can lead to significant savings on your utility bills over time.

Heat up the productivity indoors, no matter how cold it gets outside.

Are Some Heat Pumps Better Than Others?

Naturally, energy efficiency is important. However, when you make your selection, remember low operating costs are little comfort if service and repair bills are high. Don’t be sold on energy efficiency alone.

Ruud is the only manufacturer to install the Compliant Scroll® Compressor, the industry best, in its entire residential heat pump line.

What Should I Know About SEER and HSPF?

The Department of Energy requires all air-conditioning and heating equipment manufacturers to evaluate and rate the efficiency of their equipment on a seasonal basis. These ratings are known as the SEER or, Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating, for air conditioners, and the HSPF or, Heating Seasonal Performance Factor, for heating equipment.

Heat pumps use both numbers. The higher the SEER or HSPF rating, the more efficient the heat pump. High-efficiency units generally cost more. But since operating costs are lower, the payback period may be shorter than you realize. A high SEER/HSPF heat pump can also add value to your home, which is important to today’s energy-conscious home buyers.

Are Exterior Features Important?

Absolutely. Look for features such as a louvered, galvanized steel cabinet to protect the condensing unit from outdoor hazards. And make sure the cabinet is powder-painted with a high-quality enamel for improved durability and appearance.

Are Some Brands Quieter Than Others?

With some units, the outdoor fan can be a bothersome source of noise. Ruud units have a grille design that minimizes air restriction which allows the fan to operate more quietly. Additionally, the fan is mounted on the underside of the grille. This protects it from the elements and it directs airflow upward, away from plants and shrubbery.
