Should You Repair or Replace Your Heat Pump?
Repair usually makes sense if:
- The unit is under 10 years old
- The repair costs well under half the price of a new system
- It has had few breakdowns
Consider replacing if:
- The unit is over 15 years old
- Repairs are frequent or costly
- It uses R-22 refrigerant, which is no longer produced

Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can you repair my heat pump?
What is the typical heat pump repair cost?
Do you repair all heat pump brands?
Can I perform heat pump repairs myself?
What happens during a heat pump repair visit?
A technician inspects the indoor and outdoor units, tests the electrical and refrigerant components, and finds the cause. You get a clear estimate before any repair starts, and many repairs can be completed in one visit when the part is available.
My heat pump isn't heating or cooling. What can I check first?
Confirm the thermostat is set to the right mode and temperature, check that the breaker hasn’t tripped, replace a dirty air filter, and clear leaves or snow from the outdoor unit. If the problem continues, turn the system off and call a technician.
Is ice on my heat pump normal in winter?
Light frost is normal, because heat pumps run defrost cycles in cold weather. Thick ice that stays after a defrost cycle, or ice on the indoor unit, points to a problem such as a failed defrost control, low refrigerant, or restricted airflow and needs a technician.
Should I repair or replace my heat pump?
Heat pumps typically last 10 to 15 years. If your unit is older than that, needs frequent repairs, or the repair would cost close to half the price of a new system, replacement often makes more sense. A technician can compare both options with you.
Why is my heat pump blowing cold air in heating mode?
A short burst of cool air during a defrost cycle is normal. If it keeps blowing cold air, the cause could be the wrong thermostat mode, low refrigerant or a faulty reversing valve. Turn the system off and call us.
Why won't my heat pump defrost?
A failed defrost control or sensor, low refrigerant, or snow blocking airflow are the usual causes. If thick ice builds up and doesn’t clear, switch the system off and book a repair before it damages the coil.
Do heat pumps work in Calgary's winter?
Yes. Many modern cold-climate models are rated to heat at around -25°C, though output drops as it gets colder. Many Calgary homes pair a heat pump with a furnace so backup heat takes over on the coldest days.
Is my heat pump repair covered by warranty?
Many manufacturers cover parts, but not labour, for a set period. Have your model number ready and we’ll check your coverage before you pay for a part that may be covered.
