Akways a pleasure talking with you Matt
We were able to get an appointment next day with lakeshore on the week of a holiday. Matt B came out and was thorough and efficient. Will use lakeshore again in the future
So Happy we called. Matt came out within a couple hours of our call because our 22 year old furnace had died. He offered us different options and prices immediately, and had a scheduled date for a new furnace/ac install the very next day. The entire team was excellent. They kept us informed throughout the entire process and did everything they said they would. They were polite, respected our property, completed the job as scheduled and were all around a pleasure to work with.

How Do You Know If Your Heat Pump Needs To Be Repaired?
There are several signs that may indicate your heat pump is in need of repair:
Unusual Noises: If you hear banging, rattling, or grinding sounds coming from your heat pump, it could signal issues with the motor, fan, or other internal components.
Poor Heating or Cooling Performance: If your heat pump is struggling to maintain the set temperature or is blowing warm air in cooling mode or cool air in heating mode, it may require professional repairs.
Short Cycling: When your heat pump frequently turns on and off in short bursts without completing a full cycle, this could point to a malfunctioning thermostat, refrigerant issues, or a failing compressor.
Increased Energy Bills: A sudden spike in your energy costs can be a sign that your heat pump is working harder than it should due to underlying problems like dirty filters, refrigerant leaks, or a faulty compressor.
Ice Buildup on Coils: If you notice ice forming on the outdoor unit or evaporator coils, it could indicate a refrigerant leak or airflow issue that needs to be addressed promptly.
Unresponsive Thermostat: If adjusting the thermostat doesn’t change the temperature or your system won’t turn on, this could be a sign of a faulty thermostat or electrical problem.
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms with your heat pump, it’s essential to have your heat pump inspected and repaired by a professional to avoid more costly damage.

What Should You Do Before Calling Us To Repair Your Heat Pump?
Before contacting us for heat pump repairs, there are a few simple checks and troubleshooting steps you can try to potentially resolve the issue yourself:
-
- Check the Thermostat: Ensure your thermostat is set to the correct mode (heating or cooling) and that the temperature setting is accurate. Sometimes a quick adjustment or battery replacement is all it takes.
- Inspect the Power Supply: Make sure your heat pump is receiving power by checking your circuit breaker or fuse box for any tripped breakers. Resetting a tripped breaker may restore your system’s function.
- Change or Clean Filters: Dirty or clogged air filters can cause your heat pump to underperform. Check your filters and either clean or replace them if they are dirty, as this can improve airflow and system efficiency.
- Clear Debris Around the Outdoor Unit: Ensure there’s no debris, such as leaves or branches, obstructing the outdoor unit, as this can affect airflow and cause the system to overheat or shut down.
- Check for Ice Buildup: If you notice ice on the outdoor unit, turn off the heat pump and switch it to fan mode to defrost. Ice buildup could be caused by restricted airflow or refrigerant issues, so if it persists, call for professional assistance.
- Listen for Unusual Noises: If you hear any strange noises like rattling or squeaking, try to pinpoint the source. While some sounds can indicate a mechanical issue, others may just be something minor, like loose screws or panels.
If these steps don’t resolve the problem, or if you’re unsure about anything, don’t hesitate to call us for professional heat pump repairs. Our expert technicians are ready to help!

What Are The Most Common Heat Pump Problems We Repair?
The most common heat pump problems we encounter in the field include issues such as refrigerant leaks, frozen coils, malfunctioning thermostats, clogged filters, and broken fan motors, all of which can impact the efficiency and performance of your system.
Blower Motor Repair or Replacement: The blower motor is a component that circulates air throughout your home. If it malfunctions, the heat pump may fail to distribute warm or cool air evenly, requiring repair or replacement.
Capacitor Replacement: Capacitors are used to store energy and provide the jolt to start the motor and keep it running. If a capacitor fails, the motor can't start, and the heat pump may not operate.
Compressor Repair or Replacement: The compressor pressurizes the refrigerant to release heat. If it fails, the heat pump will not heat or cool effectively, and the compressor may need to be repaired or replaced.
Condenser Coil Cleaning or Replacement: The condenser coil expels heat from the refrigerant. If it becomes dirty or damaged, the heat pump may lose efficiency and require cleaning or replacement of the coil.
Fan Motor Repair or Replacement: The fan motor helps dissipate heat during the cooling process and gather heat during the heating process. If it fails, the heat pump's ability to transfer heat is compromised.
Refrigerant Leak Repair: Refrigerant is the substance that heat pumps use to transfer heat. Leaks can reduce the system’s efficiency and output, causing the heat pump to work harder. These leaks need to be repaired, and the system should be refilled with the correct amount of refrigerant.
Reversing Valve Repair or Replacement: The reversing valve is what allows a heat pump to work as both a heater and an air conditioner by reversing the flow of refrigerant. If it malfunctions, the heat pump may be stuck in one mode.
Thermostat Repair or Replacement: The thermostat controls the operation of the heat pump. If it malfunctions, the heat pump might not turn on or might run continuously.
Defrost Control Repair or Replacement: The defrost control board commands the heat pump to enter defrost mode to prevent the outdoor coil from freezing in winter. If it malfunctions, the heat pump may freeze up, requiring repair or replacement of the control.
We can repair all makes and models of heat pumps, including Trane, Carrier, Lennox, Rheem, Mitsubishi, Daikin, York, Goodman, American Standard, Bryant, and Ruud.

Should You Replace Or Repair Your Heat Pump If It's Failing?
This is a very common predicament that home and building owners find themselves in when their heat pump fails. Do you repair the heat pump or replace it? The following points to consider might help you make a better decision.
Age of the Heat Pump: The average lifespan of a heat pump is typically around 10 to 15 years. If your heat pump is nearing or has exceeded this age range, it might be more cost-effective to replace it with a more efficient model rather than paying for frequent repairs.
Frequency and Cost of Repairs: If your heat pump requires frequent repairs, or if the cost of a necessary repair is significant (a good rule of thumb is if the repair cost is more than 50% of the cost of a new system), it may be more economical in the long run to replace it.
Energy Efficiency: Older heat pumps often have lower efficiency ratings than newer models. If your energy bills have been rising without a clear explanation, it could be that your heat pump is not operating efficiently and might need to be replaced.
Inconsistent Temperatures: If you're noticing inconsistent temperatures or inadequate heating or cooling, your heat pump might be failing. If a repair doesn't resolve the issue, replacement may be the best option.
Excessive Noise or Unusual Sounds: Heat pumps should operate fairly quietly. If your system is making excessive noise or strange sounds even after a repair, it could indicate a serious issue that might warrant replacement.
Frequent Cycling: If your heat pump is constantly turning on and off (a process known as cycling), this could be a sign that your system is not correctly sized for your home or is struggling to maintain the desired temperature. If the issue persists after checking for simpler issues (like a dirty filter) and performing necessary repairs, replacement might be necessary.
