Before you book: heat pump servicing in Tring

A heat pump that is serviced and set up properly keeps running efficiently for many years. Many heat pump faults trace back to settings, low pressure or a worn part rather than the heat pump itself, and those can usually be put right.

Heat pumps in Tring that sit near trees or hedges often need their outdoor coil cleared of leaves at the annual service. Homes in Tring and across Hertfordshire can book servicing at a time of year that suits them, ideally before winter.

An annual service keeps a heat pump running efficiently, catches small faults early and is often a condition of the manufacturer's warranty.

  • Heat pumps installed by another company that need a new servicing arrangement
  • Systems where the manufacturer's warranty requires annual servicing
  • Heat pumps a year or more past installation

What's included

  • Magnetic filter and strainer clean, with system pressure topped up
  • Refrigerant circuit checks on split systems by an F-gas certified engineer
  • Glycol or antifreeze protection test where fitted
  • Expansion vessel, pressure relief and water quality checks
  • Unvented cylinder safety checks and legionella cycle check

If a heat pump in Tring has not been serviced for a while, the first visit includes a full check of settings and pressures.
