Before you book: heat pump servicing in Lichfield

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

Heat pumps in Lichfield that sit near trees or hedges often need their outdoor coil cleared of leaves at the annual service. Landlords in Lichfield can arrange servicing for several properties, with a dated record for each.

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
  • Landlords who need dated service records for each property
  • Heat pumps a year or more past installation

What's included

  • Glycol or antifreeze protection test where fitted
  • Cleaning of the outdoor unit coil, fan area and condensate drain
  • Magnetic filter and strainer clean, with system pressure topped up
  • Expansion vessel, pressure relief and water quality checks
  • Refrigerant circuit checks on split systems by an F-gas certified engineer

We service heat pumps in Lichfield whoever installed them, including monobloc and split systems.

Heat pump servicing in Lichfield: questions

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

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

How often should a heat pump in Lichfield 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 you also cover Burntwood?

Yes. We arrange heat pump servicing and repairs in Burntwood, which is about 4 miles west of Lichfield, and across Staffordshire.

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.

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.
