What heat pump repair involves
A heat pump works year-round — heating in winter and cooling in summer — so it runs far more than a standard AC and tends to wear sooner. A proper repair starts with a full diagnostic, not a guess: we test the refrigerant charge, the reversing valve that switches the system between heating and cooling, the compressor, capacitors and contactors, the defrost control, sensors, and airflow. Once we pinpoint the fault, we explain it in plain English and fix it.
Common heat pump problems we fix
- ✓Heat pump not heating or not cooling — often a refrigerant leak, reversing valve, or compressor issue
- ✓Outdoor unit iced over in winter beyond a normal defrost cycle
- ✓Short-cycling or running constantly — thermostat, sensor, low charge, or airflow
- ✓Failed capacitor or contactor — a common, affordable fix
- ✓Strange noises, a tripping breaker, or weak airflow
- ✓All brands serviced, with honest repair-vs-replace advice if the system is old
How it works
We start with a full diagnostic to find the real cause, give you a clear upfront quote before any work, complete the repair, then test the system in both heating and cooling modes to confirm it is fixed. If your heat pump is old or the repair is major, we show you the numbers so you can make an informed repair-or-replace decision — no pressure.

What your neighbors say
I cannot thank South County Air Services enough for impeccable customer service. Behshad came out on a Saturday to check my heating unit (failing motor). He was professional, knowledgeable, courteous and thorough – extremely fair pricing, with open and honest communication. Highly recommend. Five star plus!
Super impressed with our experience. We needed to replace our 40+ year old furnace, and from the first call everything was easy and clearly explained. Responsive, great follow-up, great pricing, timely booking, installers on time and prepared, clean install, no mess left.
I am grateful to the technician who inspected my HVAC system today. I feel he did a thorough inspection and told me the truth about my unit. I had two other companies beforehand – the first gave me a report that would call for major expenditure.
You will not find a more honest and knowledgeable HVAC tech. They show up on time and are very professional, but most of all will not try to upcharge you. He could have charged me significantly more but cares about diagnosing the actual problem. I found my HVAC tech – 10 star review if I could!
It’s not often you find an honest business willing to give suggestions over the phone to troubleshoot why my HVAC wasn’t working – without charging me. After a couple minutes we determined my breaker popped and all I needed was to reset it. I appreciate Behshad and will definitely use him in the future.
I spoke with the owner on a Saturday morning and he was at my house within 45 minutes. Another company wanted $3,000 in repairs; Behshad recommended a simple $250 repair that fixed the issue. Very honest, thorough, and reliable!
