If you already use a heat pump to heat and cool your Maryland, Virginia or Washington, DC home, you already know that they efficiently and effectively keep your home comfortable all year long. Of course, nothing is designed to last forever (heat pumps come close, however, clocking it at an impressive 15 year lifespan!). If your heat pump is getting up there in age and you’re worried it’s about to give up the ghost, don’t worry – just call Magnolia Heating & Air Conditioning for heat pump replacement!
When should you get heat pump replacement?
If you’ve had your heat pump inspected and tuned up every year and it’s still working fine, keep using it! There’s no reason to replace a working heat pump. However, if you notice some of the following warning signs, it might be time to start thinking about heat pump replacement:
Your heat pump is more than 10 years old – again, age by itself isn’t a sure sign that you need heat pump replacement. If your heat pump still works fine, by all means keep using it! However, if you’re starting to notice less efficient heat pump operation or increasing heating bills, it may be time to call Magnolia to upgrade your heat pump to a more efficient model.
You need frequent repair or your energy bills are going up – if you find yourself needing to constantly needing heat pump repair, or if your heating bills are starting to go up, it might be time for heat pump replacement. If your heat pump breaks down more than twice a season, several seasons in a row, it might be more cost-effective to have heat pump replacement to take care of the problem completely.
You have uneven heating and cooling in your home – uneven heating in your home could be the result of a few different things, including faulty ductwork, inadequate insulation or, most commonly, heat pump failure. If your home has uneven heating and cooling and you think you need heat pump replacement, call Magnolia Heating & Cooling today!
Your home has humidity problems – uncomfortable humidity levels in your home are usually indicative of either leaky ductwork or poor heat pump operation. If you call Magnolia, we can recommend heat pump replacement or another procedure to help get your home comfortable again.
