Common Heat Pump Problems We Fix

Here are some typical heat pump issues we deal with:

Heat Pump Not Heating Properly

If your heat pump is running but not producing enough heat, we’ll diagnose the issue and restore proper heating performance.

Unusual Noises or Vibrations

While heat pumps do make some noise, loud rattling, grinding, or excessive vibration usually indicates a problem.

Error Codes Showing

Modern heat pumps display error codes when something’s wrong, but decoding what they mean and fixing the underlying problem requires specialist knowledge.

Ice Build-Up on Outdoor Unit

Some ice formation in cold weather is normal, but excessive ice build-up can indicate defrost cycle problems, refrigerant issues, or airflow restrictions.

High Energy Consumption

If your electricity bills have shot up and your heat pump seems to be working harder than it should, there’s usually an underlying efficiency problem.

Loss of Pressure

Heat pumps operate on a sealed refrigerant circuit, but pressure loss can occur due to leaks or system faults.

What’s Included in Our Heat Pump Service?

Our heat pump maintenance in Bognor Regis is comprehensive and follows manufacturer guidelines. Here’s what we check during a standard service:

Visual Inspection

We inspect both indoor and outdoor units for signs of damage, corrosion, leaks, or wear. We also check mounting brackets and connections.

Electrical Connection Testing

We test all electrical connections, measure voltage and current draw, and ensure everything is safe and within specification.

Filter Cleaning

We clean or replace filters in both indoor and outdoor units to maintain proper airflow, which is critical for efficiency.

Coil Inspection & Cleaning

We inspect heat exchanger coils for dirt, debris, or damage, and clean them where necessary to maintain heat transfer efficiency.

Fan & Motor Checks

We inspect fans, check for wear or damage, and verify that motors are running smoothly without excessive noise or vibration.

Controls & Sensor Testing

We verify that the defrost cycle is working correctly – essential for preventing ice build-up in cold weather.

Condensate Drain Check

We inspect and clear condensate drains to prevent water damage and ensure proper drainage.

Performance Testing

We run the system under normal operating conditions and verify that it’s achieving target temperatures and operating efficiently.

System Pressure & Flow Checks

We measure system pressures and flow rates to ensure the heat pump is operating within design parameters.

After the service, we’ll provide you with a detailed report and let you know if we’ve identified anything that needs attention. If any work is required beyond the standard service, we’ll explain what’s needed and provide a quote before proceeding.

Why Regular Heat Pump Maintenance Matters

Maintains Efficiency & Performance

Heat pumps gradually lose efficiency if they’re not maintained. Regular servicing keeps everything working optimally, which means lower running costs and better heating performance.

Protects Your Warranty

All heat pump manufacturers require annual servicing as a condition of their warranty. Our servicing keeps your warranty valid and provides documentation if you ever need to make a claim.

Prevents Costly Breakdowns

Many heat pump problems start small and get worse over time. Fixing these problems during routine maintenance is much cheaper than dealing with a complete breakdown.

Extends System Lifespan

A well-maintained heat pump can last 20 years or more. Neglected systems fail much sooner. Annual servicing protects your investment and ensures you get the full lifespan from your heat pump system.

Real homes. Real projects. Real feedback. Here’s what our customers genuinely appreciate about working with WellPlumbed.

James came over to my mother in laws on Friday and replaced her kitchen taps, bit of a tricky job due to corrosion and an awkward level of access!. I’ve nothing but praise for James’s work, very efficient, tidy and made a first rate job. I would strongly recommend James for any plumbing and heating work.

Michael Burns

I have been using James for over ten years for many jobs including moving and replacing a boiler. He is very good communicator and is always prompt in turning up on time. Couldn’t recommend him more highly.

Nigel Hasted

James fitted a complete gas central system, after removing old storage heaters. He completed the work efficiently and worked extremely hard to complete the project on time. His expert advice and knowledge of heating systems help guide us in giving us a lovely warm home, which is now much more energy efficient.

FAQs

How often should I service my heat pump?

Heat pumps should be serviced annually, ideally before winter when you’ll be relying on them most. Annual servicing is typically required by manufacturers to keep your warranty valid, and it’s essential for maintaining efficiency and preventing problems.

How much does heat pump servicing cost?

Heat pump servicing typically costs between £150-£250 depending on the system type and complexity. This is more than a boiler service because heat pumps are more complex and the servicing process is more involved – it includes checking refrigerant levels, testing multiple components in both indoor and outdoor units, and verifying system performance.

Regular servicing is a worthwhile investment that protects your system and keeps it running efficiently.

What if my heat pump is still under warranty?

If your heat pump is still under manufacturer warranty, that’s great – but you still need to keep up with annual servicing to keep the warranty valid. We provide the service documentation you need to maintain your warranty.

If we discover a fault during servicing that might be covered under warranty, we’ll let you know and can help you navigate the warranty claim process with the manufacturer. Some repairs might be covered by warranty, while routine maintenance and wear-and-tear items typically aren’t.

Can you service all heat pump brands?

Yes, we service all major heat pump brands including Vaillant, Daikin, Mitsubishi, Samsung, LG, Grant, and others. Our Heat Geek training covers the fundamentals that apply across all brands, and we have experience with the specific control systems and technologies used by different manufacturers. Whether you have a well-known brand or something more unusual, we can service it properly.
