We test the handoff between the heat pump and backup strips during genuinely cold conditions.
Because heat pumps run two directions, charge accuracy matters even more.

Common questions before a Heat Pump Repair visit.
Nine times out of ten this points to a reversing valve stuck in the wrong position, though we still check refrigerant charge since it can mimic the same symptom.
A thin layer of frost comes and goes normally; ice that just sits there and builds up means the defrost logic isn't doing its job.
Nine times out of ten it's a wiring or staging problem between the thermostat and the control board, and we check that connection directly.
These two components simply don't exist on a conventional system.
Not just during summer AC demand.
Not just the mode it's currently running in.
Yes, defrost logic and staging vary meaningfully between manufacturers.
Not inherently, though the auxiliary heat strips see more use in harsher climates and are worth checking during maintenance.
Regular tune-ups extend that window meaningfully.
