Heat pumps are highly effective in keeping a home warm during the winter months. In order to ensure that your heat pump is efficient, you will need to conduct heat pumps maintenance service items. Here are a few maintenance tips to adhere to and to keep your heat pump in working order.
-Air Filters
You will want to replace your air filters on a regular basis when the heat pump is in use. If the air filter is dirty, it can affect the efficiency of the heat pump and it can even damage the heating system over time.

Programmable thermostats can save electricity when you program them to keep the heat lower when you are not home. Using the thermostat can save the heat pump from working too hard.
