What Causes Heat Pumps To Break?
Heat pumps are complex systems that can fail due to improper installation, lack of maintenance, and normal wear and tear. Common problems include refrigerant leaks, electrical issues, and compressor malfunctions.
We recommend heat pump maintenance twice a year to catch problems early and prevent them from becoming costly repairs. Read these helpful heat pump tips, or contact our team with any questions.

Common Signs of Heat Pump Problems
We expect our heaters to work without fail. Even if your heat pump is a trusty workhorse, it’s not immune to breakdowns. If you notice any of these issues, your heat pump may need repairs:
- You hear banging, rattling, or squealing sounds.
- Your home doesn’t feel as comfortable as it should.
- The heat pump turns on and off repeatedly in a short period.
- Your energy bills are higher than usual.
- You notice water leaking from the heat pump or around it.
- You smell a burning or musty odor coming from the heat pump.
The Importance of Prompt Heat Pump Repairs
Routine heat pump services can help your unit run efficiently and last longer, lowering your energy bills and CO2 emissions. Scheduling heat pump maintenance twice a year can also help identify problems early and prevent damage, such as worn components, obstructions, or system fatigue.
No matter the issue, it’s vital you schedule heat pump repairs the moment you notice a problem.

Heat Pump Repair vs. Replacement
If your heat pump has issues, you’ll need to decide whether to repair or replace it. Here’s a quick guide to help you make the best choice for your home and budget:
Repair your heat pump if:
- It’s less than 10 years old.
- The repair cost is significantly lower than the price of a new system.
- The issue is minor or common, such as a thermostat malfunction or a refrigerant leak.
- Your system’s performance and efficiency are generally good.
Replace your heat pump if:
- Your heat pump is older than 10 years and frequently needs repairs.
- The cost of repair is more than half the cost of a new heat pump.
- You’re experiencing a significant decrease in efficiency, leading to higher energy bills.
- The system uses R-22 refrigerant, which is being phased out and is expensive.

FAQs
Are heat pumps an energy-efficient heating source?
Heat pumps are very energy-efficient, reducing electricity use and utility bills. Modern air-source heat pumps can reduce electricity use by 50% compared to furnaces and baseboard heaters, while geothermal heat pumps can reduce energy use by 30%–60%.
Do you need a backup heat source if you have a heat pump in Maryland?
Heat pumps can be adequate for Maryland winters, but their efficiency may decrease when temperatures are extremely low. If the temperature drops below 25°F frequently, a heat pump may not be economical, as a backup heating system may be required.
In these cases, backup electrical resistance heat strips can be installed, or a gas furnace can be used to provide additional heating.
