Our Comprehensive Heat Pump Tune-Up Checklist

We believe in complete transparency. When you schedule a tune-up, our certified technicians perform a meticulous, multi-point service that covers every critical component of your system. This systematic approach ensures nothing is overlooked, providing you with total peace of mind.

Indoor Unit Inspection & Cleaning:

  • Thermostat Calibration: We test and calibrate your thermostat to ensure accurate temperature readings and proper system cycling, preventing energy waste.
  • Air Filter Inspection: Your air filter is checked and cleaned or replaced to promote healthy airflow and protect internal components from damaging dust and debris.
  • Blower Assembly: The blower motor, wheel, and housing are inspected for proper function and cleaned to ensure efficient air circulation throughout your home.
  • Evaporator Coil Inspection: We inspect the indoor coil for buildup of dust and grime that can restrict airflow and reduce cooling efficiency, recommending cleaning when necessary.
  • Condensate Drain System: The condensate drain line, pan, and pump are thoroughly flushed and cleaned to prevent clogs, water damage, and potential mold growth.
  • Electrical Connections: All indoor electrical connections are inspected and tightened to ensure safe, reliable operation and prevent electrical hazards.

Outdoor Unit Inspection & Cleaning:

  • Condenser Coil Cleaning: The outdoor coil is professionally cleaned to remove accumulated dirt, leaves, and grass clippings that impede heat transfer and strain the compressor.
  • Refrigerant Level Check: We accurately measure refrigerant levels. An incorrect charge can drastically reduce efficiency and cause severe damage to the compressor.
  • Compressor Analysis: The compressor's amperage draw and wiring are checked to verify it is operating within the manufacturer's specifications.
  • Fan Motor and Blades: The outdoor fan motor and blades are inspected for wear and damage and cleaned to ensure proper heat dispersal.
  • Reversing Valve Test: We test the reversing valve-the component that switches between heating and cooling modes—to confirm it is functioning correctly.

System-Wide Performance & Safety Checks:

  • Voltage and Amperage Measurement: We measure the voltage and amperage on all critical motors to identify any potential for component failure.
  • Capacitor Testing: Start and run capacitors are tested to ensure they provide the necessary power to start the motors, preventing hard starts that can lead to system failure.
  • Safety Control Verification: All system controls and safety switches are tested to ensure they will function correctly in an emergency, protecting your system and your home.
  • Ductwork Inspection: We perform a visual inspection of accessible ductwork for signs of leaks, disconnections, or inadequate insulation that could be wasting energy.
  • Lubrication of Moving Parts: All applicable moving parts are lubricated to reduce friction, minimize noise, and extend their operational lifespan.

Key Benefits of Regular Heat Pump Maintenance

Investing in an annual or bi-annual tune-up delivers significant returns in performance, savings, and reliability.

  • Enhanced Energy Efficiency: A clean, well-calibrated system doesn't have to work as hard to heat or cool your home. This translates directly into lower monthly utility bills and reduced energy consumption.
  • Extended System Lifespan: Proactive maintenance prevents the excessive wear and tear that leads to premature system failure. A properly maintained heat pump can last years longer than a neglected one, delaying the high cost of replacement.
  • Improved Home Comfort: By optimizing airflow, calibrating the thermostat, and ensuring proper refrigerant levels, a tune-up eliminates hot and cold spots, providing consistent, reliable comfort throughout your home.
  • Prevention of Costly Breakdowns: Our technicians can identify and resolve small issues, like a weakening capacitor or a loose wire, before they cause a catastrophic failure, saving you from the stress and expense of an emergency service call.
  • Maintained Warranty Compliance: Most manufacturer warranties require proof of regular professional maintenance. A tune-up ensures your system’s warranty remains valid, protecting you from out-of-pocket expenses for covered repairs.
  • Safer Operation: Inspecting electrical components and safety controls is a critical part of our tune-up process. This helps prevent potential fire hazards and ensures your system operates safely.

"I am so impressed with Burnside!!! I will never even consider using anyone else. I was u def a lot of pressure and the heating system was not working correctly and they found a minor inexpensive solution. Another local vendor charged way more for a similar situation. I immediately sighed up for their annual program. God bless them."
