Heat pumps make a soft humming noise under normal operation. If you’ve been using yours in the past few months, you probably barely notice when it’s running. This makes loud noises hard to ignore — which you shouldn’t. In today’s post, the local HVAC contractors at Perfect Degree HVAC discuss the common causes of such noises.
If your heat pump is making a racket when turned on, it could be caused by one or more of the following:
If you’ve just started noticing loud noises from your heat pump, it’s best to turn it off and call your HVAC technician immediately. Continued use may cause more wear or even damage to internal parts — this is particularly important if the noise is caused by loose components in the heat pump.
Taking the preventative route can help save you from the costs and stress of unexpected heating repair appointments. Having your heat pump cleaned by professionals at least once a year can help prevent damage caused by accumulated dirt on the outdoor unit. Lastly, keeping up with scheduled maintenance appointments can help ensure peak efficiency and continued performance.
