Heat pump servicing

Keep your heat pump running at its best

An annual service keeps your heat pump efficient, catches small faults before they become winter breakdowns, and keeps your manufacturer warranty valid.

Why it matters

Why service a heat pump every year?

Heat pumps are sealed, reliable systems with a long life, but they are not fit-and-forget.

  • Your warranty. Most manufacturers recommend annual servicing, and regular servicing is usually needed to keep the warranty valid.
  • Running costs. Blocked filters, a dirty outdoor coil or flow temperatures set too high still keep the house warm, just less efficiently. You pay for that on every bill.
  • Breakdowns. Most faults give some warning. An autumn service finds them before the first cold snap, not during it.

Signs your heat pump needs attention now

Bills creeping up

Higher running costs without an obvious reason usually mean the system has drifted from its best settings.

Lukewarm heating

Radiators or underfloor heating that never quite get warm enough.

Ice that stays

A short defrost cycle is normal. An outdoor unit that stays iced up is not.

Codes, noises or pressure drops

Error codes on the controller, new noises, or water pressure that keeps falling.

If any of those sound familiar, get in touch and we will take a look.

Systems we work with

Installed and looked after across South and West Wales

We have installed air source and ground source heat pumps from Mitsubishi Ecodan, Stiebel Eltron and Nibe, among others. If your heat pump was installed by another company, send us the make and model and we will tell you whether we can service it.

Book before the cold weather

Autumn is the best time for a service

The system is about to work its hardest, and it is far easier to book in October than in January when everyone else’s has stopped. We cover Swansea, Carmarthenshire, Neath Port Talbot, Bridgend, Pembrokeshire and the surrounding areas.
