Heat pump servicing for Burnley homes

Whoever installed your heat pump, aftercare can be arranged in Burnley. Tell us the make and model and roughly how old it is, and we will set out what the visit involves before you book.

Homes in Burnley and across Lancashire can book servicing at a time of year that suits them, ideally before winter. Service visits in Burnley include unvented cylinder safety checks alongside the heat pump itself.

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

  • Homes where running costs have crept up or rooms feel cooler than before
  • Systems where the manufacturer's warranty requires annual servicing
  • Heat pumps installed by another company that need a new servicing arrangement

What's included

  • Cleaning of the outdoor unit coil, fan area and condensate drain
  • Glycol or antifreeze protection test where fitted
  • A dated service record for your warranty and property files
  • Refrigerant circuit checks on split systems by an F-gas certified engineer
  • Expansion vessel, pressure relief and water quality checks

Heat pumps in Burnley that sit near trees or hedges often need their outdoor coil cleared of leaves at the annual service.

Heat pump servicing in Burnley: questions

Can you work on a heat pump in Burnley that someone else installed?

Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Burnley, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you get in touch.

How much does a visit cost in Burnley?

The rate for a service or fault-finding visit is agreed before anyone attends. Any repair is priced in writing before parts are ordered, so you decide before work goes ahead.

How often should a heat pump in Burnley 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.

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.

How often should a heat pump be serviced?

Once a year is the usual recommendation for air source heat pumps, and many manufacturers require it as a warranty condition. An annual visit cleans filters and strainers, checks pressures and controls, and tests the unvented cylinder's safety devices. If you notice a drop in performance, unusual noises or repeated error codes between services, arrange a visit sooner.
