Heat Pump Replacement

Does your heat pump seem to be breaking down more often than you’d like? Are you trying to decide whether you should repair it or have it replaced? This can be a tough decision – heat pump repairs usually have much lower upfront costs; but full on heat pump replacement, if you really need it, usually ends up saving you money in the long run. So how do you decide if you should repair your Maryland or Washington, DC heat pump or just replace it?

You May Need Heat Pump Replacement If…

Your heat pump is more than 10 years old

Heat pumps have a limited lifespan – once your heat pump gets to be 10 years old or older, you should consider replacing it with an ENERGY STAR rated heat pump. A Michael Bonsby Heating and Air Conditioning technician can replace your heat pump with a new, high efficiency model that could save you up to 20% on your heating and cooling costs!

Your heat pump needs frequent repairs, or your energy bills are going up

If you find yourself needing frequent heat pump repair or if you can’t seem to keep your energy bills down, these are both signs that your heat pump is becoming less efficient and you need heat pump replacement.

Some rooms in your home are too hot or too cold

This could be a sign of improper heat pump operation, duct problems or inadequate insulation. Your Michael Bonsby Heating and Air Conditioning technician will be able to tell you if you need heat pump replacement or other repairs made to your home.

Your home has humidity problems

Poor humidity control could be the result of poor heat pump operation, inadequate equipment or leaky ductwork, all of which can cause the air to be too dry in the winter or too sticky and humid in the summer. Your Michael Bonsby Heating and Air Conditioning technician will diagnose the source of your problem and recommend either heat pump replacement or another technique to make your home comfortable all year round.
