What Maple Shade heat pump owners ask most.
We don't assume, we test both possibilities.
If it never melts back on its own, that's the signal something's wrong.
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.
A heat pump tune-up covers ground a standard AC visit never touches, namely the defrost cycle and the reversing valve.
Not just during summer AC demand.
Not just the mode it's currently running in.
Yes, defrost logic and staging vary meaningfully between manufacturers.
Climate affects wear patterns more than it affects overall lifespan.
Most units run reliably for a decade or more with proper maintenance, though usage and climate affect the timeline.
