Signs You Need Heat Pump Repairs:

Inconsistent Temperatures

If your system isn’t heating or cooling effectively, or certain rooms aren’t reaching the desired temperature.

Unusual sounds like grinding, hissing, or banging could indicate an issue with the compressor, fan, or other components.

If the system turns on and off too often, it may be a sign of a malfunctioning thermostat, low refrigerant, or electrical problems.

Excessive ice or frost on the coils during winter, especially when it’s not in heating mode, can point to refrigerant leaks or airflow issues.

A sudden spike in energy costs could indicate your heat pump is working harder than necessary, possibly due to an efficiency issue.

If air isn’t circulating properly, it may be a sign of a clogged filter, a damaged blower, or ductwork issues.

Refrigerant Leaks

Identifying and sealing leaks in the refrigerant lines, followed by recharging the system with the appropriate refrigerant.

Peter was an absolute lifesaver. My A/C decided it had officially had enough around midnight during one of the hottest days of the year, with a heat advisory and temperatures reaching around 115° with the heat index. By the next morning, parts of my house had climbed into the 90-95° range, so I was incredibly relieved when a colleague recommended Peter. He was able to fit me in the very same day and gave me a 4:00-7:00 PM arrival window. Around 2:00 PM, he even called to touch base, gather a little more information about what was happening, and let me know we were still on schedule. That level of communication alone was greatly appreciated. Peter arrived around 5:30 PM and was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient from start to finish. I showed him how the outdoor unit would fail to start when I flipped the breaker back on, ending with a large spark from the lower portion of the unit. Rather than simply replacing parts, he took the time to explain exactly what he found, showed me the failed component, and walked me through his diagnosis so I understood what had happened. Before performing any work, he clearly explained the cost of both the replacement blower motor and the installation. Fortunately, he already had the correct blower motor stocked in his truck, which meant there was no waiting on parts. Within about an hour to an hour and a half, everything was repaired and my vents were blowing cold air again. It’s hard to overstate how grateful I was. During a brutal heat wave, same-day service like this is worth its weight in gold. Peter’s professionalism, honesty, communication, and efficiency made an incredibly stressful situation so much easier. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for an HVAC technician they can trust.

I highly recommend Peter and his team at Elite Degrees Cooling for any heating and cooling needs in the tri-county area. I am a senior homeowner who purchased a new furnace in 2022 through an Oakland County–sponsored program. Unfortunately, the furnace has been a nightmare from the start, breaking down repeatedly year after year. On January 20, 2026, during 20-degree weather, the furnace failed for the fifth time this year, leaving me without heat for 13 days. The original contractor and subcontractor did not respond. I contacted Condor directly and received a call back from Peter at Elite Degrees Cooling. He was blindsided by the situation but stepped in immediately and went above and beyond to help. Peter made two service visits, accurately diagnosed the issue, and replaced both the motherboard and the motor (for the fourth time). Peter was professional, kind, knowledgeable, and respectful throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain everything and treated me with dignity during a very stressful situation. After years of ongoing problems, Peter was the first person who truly made a difference. If you want honest, skilled, and compassionate service, I highly recommend Peter and Elite Degrees Cooling. — Ki H.

I’m super impressed with this company despite not having any work completed at my home yet. My friend’s AC stopped working the other day when it was blazing hot outside. She called a different company and was told she would hear back from them the next day. Per my friend’s medical situation, it was important to get this fixed ASAP. I did some research online and came across this company and its impressive reviews. I called and talked to Peter and explained the situation. He agreed to extend his work day, which I can only imagine had been extra long already, to go to my friend’s house right away. Her air conditioner was fixed in record time and she was charged a fair price for the repair. I know who I’ll be calling the next time I have any HVAC issues! Thank you, Peter. Looking forward to meeting you when the time comes. 😄

No AC in heat spell. Peter was very courteous and professional. Elite heating and cooling was able to come fix my air conditioner on the day it stopped working. Amazing since every company I called could not come out until Monday. Today is Thursday. Thank you Elite and thanks a whole bunch Peter

Ask for Frank A!!!! He came out to check my air conditioning and was fantastic from start to finish. He was on time, professional, and clearly explained what was going on and what he was doing to fix it. He worked efficiently, respected my home, and made sure everything was running properly before he left. I feel a lot safer going into this hot week thanks to him. Highly recommend Frank A and this company. - Melissa

Our FAQ

What should I do if my heat pump isn’t heating or cooling?

If your heat pump isn’t providing heat or cool air:

  • Check the Thermostat Settings: Ensure it’s set to the right mode (heating or cooling) and temperature.
  • Inspect the Air Filter: A clogged filter can restrict airflow and affect performance.
  • Verify the Power Supply: Ensure the heat pump is properly connected to the power source and check for tripped circuit breakers.

 

If these steps don’t resolve the issue, contact a technician for further diagnostics and repair.

Can I continue using my heat pump if it’s not working properly?

It’s not advisable to continue using a malfunctioning heat pump, as doing so can lead to:

  • Further Damage: A small issue can escalate into a larger, more expensive problem if not addressed.
  • Inefficiency: The system may struggle to maintain the desired temperature, leading to higher energy bills.
  • Complete Breakdown: Running the system when it’s not functioning properly can cause a full system failure, requiring more extensive repairs or replacement.

 

It’s best to call for repair service as soon as you notice issues to prevent further complications.

Why is my heat pump constantly turning on and off?

Frequent cycling, also known as short cycling, can be caused by:

  • Dirty Air Filters: Clogged filters restrict airflow and cause the system to overheat.
  • Thermostat Issues: A malfunctioning or improperly calibrated thermostat can cause incorrect readings and erratic cycling.
  • Low Refrigerant: Insufficient refrigerant can make the heat pump overheat and shut off prematurely.
  • Electrical Problems: Faulty wiring or connections can cause intermittent operation.

 

Our technicians can inspect and repair your system to restore normal cycling and efficiency.

Can I repair my heat pump myself?

While simple tasks, such as changing filters or checking the thermostat settings, can be done by homeowners, most heat pump repairs should be handled by a professional.

  • Safety Risks: Heat pumps operate under high voltage, and improper repairs can lead to electrical hazards.
  • Warranty Concerns: DIY repairs may void your warranty.
  • Complexity: Heat pumps involve complicated components like refrigerant lines and compressors that require specialized knowledge and tools.

 

It’s always best to leave repairs to a trained technician to ensure the job is done correctly and safely.

How much does it cost to repair a heat pump?

The cost of repairing a heat pump depends on:

  • The nature of the problem: Simple fixes (like replacing a capacitor or cleaning coils) are usually less expensive than major repairs (like fixing refrigerant leaks or replacing the compressor).
  • The age of the system: Older units may require more expensive parts or labor.
  • Labor costs: Prices may vary based on location and the technician’s hourly rate.

 

Our technicians will provide a detailed estimate before starting the repair, so you know what to expect.
