Pump Only :: Perfect Pump Only Recommendations

What's wrong with my heat pump? It is freezing outside and only cold air is blowing.?
I have a 2-story townhouse (3 BR, 1330 sq. ft.). The indoor part of the unit is upstairs. When it is cold out (probably 35F or less) the heat pump only blows air without heat and it's freezing in my house, especially downstairs. The unit and house are only 11 years old. The volts say 208/230 and horsepower is 1/2. How can I get it to be warm again? My living room/kitchen are unbearable to be in. I am planning to have the ductwork cleaned and the heat pump coils cleaned next week. But I know that can't be all. Help! My heat pump is electric.

Have your thermostat checked, it could be malfunctioning. Next have a tech check your entire system.

I dont know about your heat pump but mine is good down to 32 degrees. I live in Indiana and that is why i have a furnace backup. You may also want to change the filter.

With a heat pump you always have a backup heat source since the pump cant heat in colder temps. Check your breakers. If one is tripped it may be hard to see so look carefully. Reset all breakers marked heat, furnace, heat pump or A/C. Other than that, you need to wait for the Tech to get there. Good luck.

Set the thermostat to "em. heat" if there is no heat, check the breakers, and if there is still no heat and If it hasn't been serviced in a few years, you will need to call a service company, the aux/em heat is not energizing during the defrost cycle or for the second stage heating

Get the gas level of the unit checked. We had a similar problem 2 weeks ago . It turned out to be a small hole in the pipe which had leaked all the gas out and needed a weld before filling in more gas. Good luck!

Heat pumps start to loose efficiency at 47 deg. When it gets that cold there is no heat to bring inside. Try the auxillary switch. If you still don't have any heat call for service.

Lower pump prices drive holiday plans
The Spokesman Review
While drivers may feel relief at the pump, gas still isn't cheap. Besides last year, the only other time gas was more expensive on Memorial Day was 2008, when it eventually climbed to a record of $4.11 per gallon. This year, gas shot up by 66 cents ...
