Before you book: heat pump servicing in Kirriemuir
Aftercare matters as much as installation. For a heat pump in Kirriemuir the visit checks the outdoor unit, the water circuit and the controls, and the engineer explains any settings that would help the system run more efficiently.
Service visits in Kirriemuir include unvented cylinder safety checks alongside the heat pump itself. We service heat pumps in Kirriemuir whoever installed them, including monobloc and split systems.
An annual service keeps a heat pump running efficiently, catches small faults early and is often a condition of the manufacturer's warranty.

Do I need to do anything between services?
A little. Keep the area around the outdoor unit clear of leaves, snow, plants and stored items so air flows freely. Check the system pressure gauge occasionally if you have one, and note any error codes. Avoid covering the unit or building an enclosure around it without advice, as this can reduce performance.
