- Your Heat Pump Smells When Turned On.
If your Heat Pump has a musty or damp smell, it's usually caused by mould or bacteria growing inside the unit.
This build-up often occurs on the indoor coil and fan where moisture collects. A professional clean removes this contamination and helps improve the air quality in your home.
2.
Reduced Heating Or Cooling Performance.
If your Heat Pump isn't heating or cooling like it used to, dirt build-up could be restricting airflow. When coils and filters become clogged, the system has to work harder and becomes less efficient.
3.
Higher Power Bills.
A dirty heat pump uses
MORE electricity to do the same job. When airflow is restricted, the system runs longer and consumes more power. Regular servicing can help keep your heat pump running efficiently and may reduce your power costs.
4.
Weak Airflow From The Indoor Unit.
If the air coming out feels weaker than usual, the fan barrel inside the unit may be coated in dust and grime. This is a very common issue we see during servicing.
5.
Visible Dust Or Mould Inside Unit.
If you look inside the vents and see
black spots, dust, or grime,
that contamination is likely circulating through your home. A professional clean removes this safely.
6.
Strange Noises.
grinding, rattling, or unusual noises can happen when dirt build-up interferes with the fan or airflow. Cleaning the internal components can often resolve these issues.
7.
It's Been Over A Year Sine Your Last Service.
Most manufacturers recommend servicing your heat pump at least once a year. Regular cleaning helps:
Maintain performance
Improve air quality
Extend the lifespan of your heat pump.
