Before you book: heat pump repairs in Glasgow
Whoever installed your heat pump, aftercare can be arranged in Glasgow. Tell us the make and model and roughly how old it is, and we will set out what the visit involves before you book.
Across Glasgow and Glasgow and Dunbartonshire, refrigerant repairs on split systems are carried out by an F-gas certified engineer. For repeated faults in Glasgow, the engineer looks at the system design as well as the failed part.
When a heat pump shows an error, loses pressure or stops heating, an engineer diagnoses the cause and explains the repair and its cost before fixing it.
- Systems losing pressure or needing frequent topping up
- Heat pumps showing an error code or fault light
- Heat pumps installed by another company that need a second opinion
What's included
- Supply and fitting of replacement parts
- Reading of error history and operating data
- Testing of sensors, pumps, valves, pressures and electrics
- Refrigerant repairs by an F-gas certified engineer where needed
- System refill, venting and recommissioning after the repair
We repair heat pumps in Glasgow whoever installed them, including older monobloc and split systems.

Heat pump repairs in Glasgow: questions
How often should a heat pump in Glasgow be serviced?
Once a year is the usual recommendation, and many manufacturers make annual servicing a condition of the warranty. Check your warranty terms for the exact requirement.
Will the engineer need access indoors as well as outside?
Usually yes. The outdoor unit, the hot water cylinder, the controls and the pipework and valves indoors are all part of the visit, so allow access to each.
Can you work on a heat pump in Glasgow that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Glasgow, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you get in touch.
Why is my heat pump showing an error code?
An error code is the heat pump's way of reporting a problem it has detected, such as low water flow, a sensor reading out of range or a communication fault between units. Note the code and check the manual, as some codes clear after a simple reset or pressure top-up. If it returns, an engineer can trace the underlying cause.
Can you repair a heat pump installed by another company?
Yes. We carry out fault-finding and repairs on heat pumps installed by other companies, including monobloc and split systems. Tell us the make, model and approximate age when you get in touch, plus any error code shown. If the system is still under the manufacturer's warranty, it may be quicker to contact the original installer or manufacturer first.
