Before you book: heat pump servicing in Alderley Edge
Aftercare matters as much as installation. For a heat pump in Alderley Edge 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.
Heat pumps in Alderley Edge that sit near trees or hedges often need their outdoor coil cleared of leaves at the annual service. If a heat pump in Alderley Edge has not been serviced for a while, the first visit includes a full check of settings and pressures.
An annual service keeps a heat pump running efficiently, catches small faults early and is often a condition of the manufacturer's warranty.
