Keep Your Heat Pump Running at Peak Efficiency

A neglected heat pump can lose significant efficiency, leading to higher electricity costs and uneven temperatures. Routine maintenance ensures your system can effectively pull heat from the air even on cold days, reducing reliance on expensive auxiliary heating. Learn more about operating and maintaining your heat pump for maximum savings. CTI Mechanical solves critical home needs by keeping your system clean and calibrated for peak year-round performance.

Prevent Costly Heat Pump Issues

Regular maintenance is the best way to avoid expensive repairs and keep your heat pump running smoothly in every season. CTI Mechanical is your partner in proactive home comfort. Call (269) 441-1900 to book your appointment.

The compressor is the heart of your heat pump and expensive to replace. Regular maintenance ensures refrigerant levels and oil pressures are correct, protecting this vital component from premature failure and the need for major heat pump repair.

If your heat pump is dirty or low on refrigerant, it may rely too heavily on expensive electric resistance backup heat. Our tune-up optimizes the primary system to keep your energy bills as low as possible.

Faulty defrost controls can lead to a block of ice encasing your outdoor unit, crushing fan blades and coils. We test these controls annually to ensure your system can melt frost effectively, or recommend heat pump installation if the unit is beyond repair.

The Local Heat Pump Maintenance Experts

CTI Mechanical is Battle Creek’s trusted source for heat pump maintenance. As a locally owned, family-operated business with over two decades of experience, we understand the specific needs of homeowners in Michigan. Count on our experts to keep your system running efficiently year-round.

How often does a heat pump need maintenance?

Since heat pumps operate year-round, we recommend scheduling maintenance twice a year: once in the spring before cooling season and once in the fall before heating season. This ensures optimal performance for both functions.

Why is my heat pump icing up?

Light frost is normal in winter, but heavy ice indicates a problem with the defrost cycle or airflow. Our maintenance service includes testing these components to prevent ice buildup that can damage your compressor.

Does maintenance lower my electric bill?

Absolutely. A clean, well-charged heat pump moves heat much more efficiently than a dirty one. Regular maintenance keeps your system operating at its intended SEER/HSPF ratings, saving you money every month.

Do you service all brands?

Yes, CTI Mechanical technicians are trained to maintain all major heat pump brands and models, ensuring expert care regardless of who installed your system.

Heat pumps are sophisticated systems that require a different approach than standard furnaces or air conditioners. CTI Mechanical understands the intricacies of the reversing valve, defrost boards, and refrigerant pressures critical to their operation.Our maintenance checklist covers:

• Inspecting the reversing valve for proper switching

• Cleaning condensate drains to prevent water damage

• Checking auxiliary heat strips for emergency warmth

• Measuring airflow and static pressure

• Verifying thermostat settings for efficient staging

• The unit is stuck in one mode (heating or cooling)

• You hear grinding or clicking noises from the outdoor unit

• Your auxiliary/emergency heat is coming on too frequently

If you notice these symptoms, don’t wait for a breakdown. Contact CTI Mechanical to schedule a comprehensive tune-up.
