Heat Pump Maintenance 

Yes, heat pumps require regular maintenance. HVAC systems that are properly maintained professionally by Holt Plumbing & Heating are reported to consume 10% to 25% less energy than those that are not properly maintained. Having preventative maintenance done on your heat pump will ensure that it is working properly and prevent future problems. It will also help extend the lifespan of your heat pump.

You should have your heat pump serviced at least once a year. If your heat pump is the only source of heating and cooling for your house, then it is recommended to get it serviced twice a year.

Things that you can do to best maintain your heat pump and make sure it’s always running well include dusting and cleaning around your pump, cleaning and changing your air filters every 30 to 60 days, and keeping your outdoor unit clear of any leaves, dirt, and debris while maintaining about a two-feet radius around your heat pump clutter-free
