What to know about heat pump servicing in Knighton
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.
Service visits in Knighton include unvented cylinder safety checks alongside the heat pump itself. If a heat pump in Knighton 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.
- Systems where the manufacturer's warranty requires annual servicing

Heat pump servicing in Knighton: questions
How often should a heat pump in Knighton 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.
Can you work on a heat pump in Knighton that someone else installed?
Yes. We arrange servicing and repairs for most air source heat pumps in Knighton, whoever fitted them. Tell us the make and model when you get in touch.
Do you also cover Newtown?
Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Newtown, which is about 16 miles north-west of Knighton, and across Powys.
Can you service a split system?
Yes. Split systems have refrigerant pipes running between the outdoor unit and an indoor unit, and checks on that refrigerant circuit must be done by an F-gas certified engineer. We arrange the service so a suitably certified engineer attends. The water side, controls and cylinder are checked in the same visit, just as on a monobloc system.
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.
