What Is a Heat Pump?
Contrary to what its name might indicate, a heat pump both heats and cools. This type of heating and air conditioning system is installed outside of your home. Unlike central heaters and ACs, heat pumps do not generate heat, they simply transfer it. Equipped with advanced technology, these systems absorb heat from the outside air and bring it inside to warm a home and absorb heat from inside and transfer it outside to cool a home.
Signs You Need Heat Pump Repair
As we all know, the weather in Las Vegas can be quite extreme. The last thing you need is for your heat pump to break down in the middle of a heatwave, leaving your family to suffer through it. In order to avoid a full-blown system breakdown, it is important to be able to recognize when your heat pump needs to be repaired.
You need to schedule heat pump repair if:
- Your system is cycling on and off constantly - This usually happens when one of two things happens, if your heat pump is too big for your home, it will do its job and turn off. But if something is wrong with your compressor then it will short-cycle like this and require heat pump repair.

Benefits of Replacing Your Old, Inefficient Heat Pump
If your existing heat pump is old, inefficient, and ineffective, you need to consider replacing it. Old systems break down over time and tend to waste tons of energy in an effort to function properly.
Some of the many benefits of replacing your inefficient heat pump include:
- Energy efficiency: Rather than producing heat, heat pumps transfer it, which means they use much less energy while operating. It is common for homeowners to experience a significant reduction in energy consumption when they install a new heat pump.
- Eco-friendliness: Because heat pumps are so energy efficient, they produce far fewer carbon emissions than other HVAC systems.
- Long lifespan: New heat pump systems last as long as 15 years with proper maintenance.
Lower utility bills: Because they use far less energy than older systems, you can expect to see a significant drop in your utility bills each month when you install a brand-new heat pump. - Year-round operation: These systems provide both heating and cooling, which means they are designed to provide year-round comfort.
