We service both air-source and ductless heat pump systems.
Auxiliary heat strip issues are checked alongside the heat pump itself.
If you're dealing with a system stuck blowing cold air in heating mode, an outdoor unit that's iced over and won't run its defrost cycle, or a system that switches modes but never actually reaches set temperature, you already know a heat pump that seems to be 'not heating' is often actually a reversing valve or defrost cycle problem, which a technician trained mainly on standard AC systems can easily misdiagnose.

Most heat pump repair problems give some warning before they turn into a system stuck blowing cold air in heating mode, an outdoor unit that's iced over and won't run its defrost cycle, or a system that switches modes but never actually reaches set temperature — catching it early usually means a shorter, cheaper fix.
