To DIY or not to DIY?
Should you attempt heat pump repairs yourself? Keep in mind that since these systems require a significant amount of electricity to run, attempting repairs on your own can jeopardize your safety and that of your family. Working on your system could likely void the warranty by doing the heating repairs yourself. However, when your heat pump system isn’t working as it should, there are a few simple steps to do by yourself to troubleshoot the problem.
Unit Won’t Turn On
- Check the circuit breakers – A switch may have been accidentally turned off.
- Don’t try to reset the circuit breaker if it’s tripping frequently or seems burnt.
Outside Unit (Condenser) Won’t Run
- Check for debris blocking the condenser. Make sure this is addressed in your annual maintenance check.
Not Blowing Hot or Cold Air
- Check the air filters – Dirty or clogged filters will impede airflow. Air filters require frequent changing out.
- Check the vents – Make sure they are clean and not covered by furniture or plants.
- Check the outside unit – Ensure the area is free of debris like sticks, stones, leaves, and branches.
- When your heat pump unit is not blowing cold air, it’s possible your refrigerant needs recharging. The refrigerant is a chemical inside the unit that helps cool the air. Typically, this substance never needs recharging unless there is a leak causing the chemical level to decline.
Thermostat Improperly Set
- Check if your unit is on the “fan only” setting.
No Power to the Thermostat
- Check the thermostat batteries and settings.
Unit is Leaking
- While this could be a water leak, it could also be a leaking refrigerant gas, which can be harmful and needs to be inspected immediately.
Strange Noises
- if you notice new banging, buzzing, humming, or similar noises coming from your heat pump, get it checked immediately.
If none of these remedies help, it’s time to call in your nearby HVAC specialists at 212 HVAC.

The reasons can range from your circuit breaker tripping, blowing a fuse, clogged air filter, dirty evaporator coils or condenser lines, refrigerant leak, motor, thermostat failure, or it could be a wiring issue.
Check to make sure your thermostat is set to AUTO. If this is not an issue then the problem may be a more serious one and a professional will need to be called in.
If you hear noises from your compressor or outdoor unit, this normally means your heat pump needs repairing. Electrical heat pump issues can make a popping or buzzing sound. A failing motor can buzz or vibrate. Also, a failing valve or solenoid may make a hissing, whooshing, or vibrating noise.
