I had a great experience with Nick and Green Leaf. Upfront with pricing and walked me through everything I needed to know. Absolutely would recommend and will be the first call I make if I ever need anything HVAC again.

GreenLeaf installed our Carrier HVAC system during our reno and we’ve continued to use them for maintenance for 10+ years. Highly recommend! Their technicians are on-time, friendly, and thorough. We even had them replace and install a new HVAC at another property. Loyal to GreenLeaf and can’t thank their techs and office staff for stellar service over the years.

I want to give a shout out to Daniel. He is a technician that serviced my A/C and heating system. He found I had a clog in my primary drain line and worked diligently to solve the problem. I am so thankful for his problem solving skills and taking the time to make sure our A/C is in tip top shape for the summer. I will definitely be using Grenn Leaf again next year for my annual service and I hope Daniel comes to my house again.

We quickly became a bigger customer over the last 2 years with Greenleaf and I can tell you they were a great choice for us! We're now up to 6 HVAC systems and nearly $100K total investment in all Trane equipment. Greenleaf has been just fantastic throughout the entire process. Especially when there were some smaller issues. It's understandable that some smaller things might go haywire, what is important is that service after the sale. THEY ARE FAST! Every single request has been responded to in less than 1hr and service setup for the next day, even on the weekends. If we ever needed extra attention our sales rep Josh left lines of communication open to be extra sure we were taken care of. All they need to do is keep on doing everything the same and you'll be happy. Zero room for improvement from our perspective. Highly Recommended.

They tech was super friendly and explained everything they looked at and what the problem was. Thankfully they were able to get it fixed that day! Thank you guys!

Where to begin? Our Bryant HVAC was 17 – 18 years old and working well. It was a single stage unit – full on and full off. I also knew it was time to research and ask for estimates. I had been thinking about this for a while and definitely did NOT want to have an install during the summer (Central Texas) or the winter. October/November seemed to be the “sweet spot.”I called several local companies and after talking with my wife, reading reviews and thinking about the presentations from the 5 companies, I chose Green Leaf AC, Heating and Plumbing.Well Christmas came early this year. Each Green Leaf person I met, spoke with and watched from the initial discussions about the various units, the pricing and the installation was EXCELLECT.Josh gave the presentation and answered so many questions – with great patience. He also gave me the initial estimate and provided additional information about ductwork and insulation at my request. I could not see installing a new HVAC – with such vast changes in technology without adding the appropriate accessories. Think of purchasing a new car with threadbare tires. My system was over 17 years old. Everything needed updating.This would be a 3-day install – one day for the removal on both the Bryant HVAC, the ductwork and the installation of the new HVAC and new ductwork. I was amazed at the workmanship of Xavier and Carlos who did the removal of the old and install of the new equipment.Up in the attic Victor and Raul were removing the old Ductwork and installing the new ductwork. Mike joined in a bit later that morning and provided extra hands where needed. After the new ductwork was completed, Mike and I went up into the attic. He answered my questions and demonstrated how to adjust the airflow to each room.All this was done between 9 am and 3:30 pm. Josh came by about 2 and asked for my impressions and also to set up the time for the new insulation to be blown into the attic – a day later. Xavier And Carlos did that. Done in 3 hours.Summing up – I spent several summer days watching YouTube videos about HVACs. One of the recurrent points was that the HVAC a person may choose is only as good as the installation. Green Leaf AC, Heating and Plumbing certainly provided an excellent installation. The Trane variable speed HVAC we chose is whisper quiet. My wife and I can feel the difference in the house. A cold front is approaching and we will certainly check out the Trane heat pump as well as note the house warmth with the new insulation.Yes, this was expensive but financing is available. I am a retired teacher living on a fixed income. So spending money wisely and effectively is my mantra.The only aspects of this process I cannot comment on at this time are Green Leaf follow-up and Trane’s durability.I will update this review in a few months.THANK YOU GREEN LEAF AC, HEATING and PLUMBING.

Highly recommend Green Leaf AC Heating and Plumbing. I found out this morning that a very close family friend that is struggling with health problems has not had a functional AC unit for the last 2-3 weeks. I reached out to Darwin Tanksley and he mobilized his team to assess the situation. Bad news is that they need a new system - good news is that it will be installed on Friday (a little over a day after it was inspected). I wont go into all of the details, but what Darwin and his team did for this family shows what a great company this is and how much they care about people.

Clinton and Mark came out to fix our outside AC unit not working. They were fast, friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable. They fixed it in a very reasonable time frame and it was very affordable. They even checked the inside temps and air filter while here. Very happy with their service and will call again in the future.

Aug 24, 2022A few days ago our relatively new upstair's AC unit stopped working suddenly and I called Green Leaf who we had used to replace our downstair's unit in 2018, and to correct some shoddy workmanship from a 2014 upstairs replacement.Chis Reed showed up within the time frame communicated by their outstanding office person Larrissa (I believe I have the name right). She was helpful and tried her best to squeeze us in early and was prompt to inform us when her attempts failed :) Which was ok since she was doing us a favor to begin with.So back to Chris, he was really good at explaning everything he was doing on our system, and what the issue was. I'm an engineer and had already guessed what the problem might be and he confirmed it almost immediately. Without unessessary dilly dallying Chris set to work resolving our issue, and explaining the physics behind the issue which I really appreciated. He also made suggestions as to how we might proactively remedy the situation on our own in the future, but also suggested a design change on the plumbing of the unit which made perfect sense to me. He set up an electronic appointment on the spot for us to have the redesign completed, which we will do at some point in the near future. No other AC repairman had ever made any suggestions to resolve this problem that has been more or less periodic, and ongoing for years.I will definitely request Chris Reed personally the next time we need AC service and recommend him hightly. The man knows his stuff and he doesn't waste time doing what needs to be done.A big shout out to Chris Reed and Green Leaf for a job well done.

Had them out to replace my 25 year old system. They called out many problems with my current system and how the builders originally built the attic system terribly that I already knew about. I knew it was going to be a lot of work to rebuild. That being said the price they quoted was really fair and they used a high quality AC unit with a great SEER rating. Final product was very impressive and they were very professional during installation. Can't say enough good things about greenleaf

Plumbing Issues.7/29/2022 I had a plumbing issue and called Green Leaf as I have used them for all my air conditioning needs in the past. Andre and Damian came out today and were here during the time frame indicated. They were professional and knowledgeable regarding my plumbing issues. They were able to fix the issue very quickly. I will definitely use them again for any plumbing issues. Thank you Damian and Andre.

We woke up to hot air coming out of our ducts and made a call, hoping against hope to get a same day appt during this historic heatwave. Fortunately they were able to schedule someone for that evening. After Jeremy arrived he quickly diagnosed our problems and had the system cooling again in no time. He really went above and beyond for us. Can't thank him enough. An hour later our house was cool enough to sleep comfortably. We were ecstatic! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

From my first contact through their website, Brent was very responsive and helpful in answering all of my questions and providing a competitive quote for a 16 seer system (a/c and heating). Installation was quick and on-time, and Mike and Raul were very professional and safety conscious. They used drop cloths to protect my floors. Installation took about 4.5 hours. Within an hour after the install, my indoor temp had already dropped 6 degrees on a very hot day. I love my new wifi-enabled thermostat (which they installed for free), and I am thrilled to have this new unit as temps are 100+ every day. Even better, I have 18 months to pay off the cost (through Wells Fargo) at 0% interest. I highly recommend Green Leaf A/C and Heating!

The installation crew was here promptly at 9:00 and stayed until both the downstairs and upstairs units were replaced, including replacing the return air ducts that had been improperly installed by the builder. Both units now provide the proper air flow to rooms that never had properly cooled. Brent and his team were extremely professional and easy to work with. Pricing was extremely competitive with other companies and they were able to do the job immediately.

Kind of a mixed review...Mother's Day Weekend the AC went out...called Saturday...they said they'd come out Sunday...EXCELLENT. I was told the cost is normally $109, but weekend rate was $179 for service call and to check the system...fair enough. AND TO BE FAIR....Several other AC Companies said they could not dispatch anyone for 3-5 days...so THANK YOU Green-Leaf for getting someone out QUICKLY...much appreciated.
Edsel came out on Sunday, good communication and texted he'd be here. When he got here, he confirmed my suspicions that it was a capacitor which is a very simple repair/installation (for lack of a better analogy, it is loosely equivalent to replacing a fuse in a car...not too hard)...and he said it would be about $200, but he may be able to discount it for me somewhat. Having suspected it was the capacitor, I had already ordered one the previous night and it was to be delivered to my house via Amazon...it cost $17. So I told him I'd wait for it to arrive and install it myself instead of paying a $180 markup on a $17 part. He said OK, but since he didn't install it and did not have a "sample" or "working' capacator...he could not check the rest of the system...so that was the end of the service call...fair enough I guess, but it would have been nice to have the rest of the system checked. So he then said the service call was $209...so I tried to remember from my original phone call with the dispatcher...and the cost should be $179...so Edsel accepted that and I paid him in cash....but kinda felt like it had been a price negotiation...which I wasn't expecting.
The following day I get an e-mail from Green Leaf with invoice for $179...but it doesn't say paid...so I call them, and the lady who answered at first asked how I'd like to pay...I said I did...and she checked and verified it...and agreed and sent me a e-mail with a "paid" invoice. She also confirmed that the capacitor part is normally priced at between $150-$180...which is still about a 10x markup (remember, you've already paid for a labor/service call), but she did say that it is covered by 1 year parts and service warranty.
Final Analysis: EXCELLENT RESPONSE TIME and Edsel did seem very qualified at his job.
COST/PRICING: Seemed to be always a negotiation that I had to be aware of...and I get that they need to make money...but up to you whether you think the parts 10x markup is excessive or not...for me, I think it was since a service call had already been paid for.

Full disclosure, I almost never do recommendations on any social media, but I feel that I need to regarding Green Leaf. They are awesome! Our HVAC was on its last leg, so I bid out replacing the system and reworking our ducting. I brought in 10 contractors and pick Green Leaf based mainly on the unit I wanted and they had the best bid. Our experience with them on installation day impressed me quite a bit. The ducting work ended up being bigger in scope that initial bid. They brought in another crew, got it done in the time bid and did not attempt to charge any additional amounts. I waited a couple of months to see if the installation had issues and to see if the ducting changes they made worked. Great job guys! We had two rooms that never cooled correctly. Every homeowner with our floor plan complains about them. Well, they cool now! I waited for a day when we would be over 100 degrees and took the thermostat down to 68. System didn't even struggle. Odd wearing sweats on a 100 degree day. I give my highest recommendation to Green Leaf. You can't go wrong.

I have highly recommended Green Leaf to several neighbors and will continue to do so. From the very beginning the whole team was very friendly and professional. A few months after we got our new system a manufacturer's issue caused some problems with the system, but Eddie and his whole team spoke with me almost daily all the way through getting the issues handled and ultimately replacing the unit. Extremely grateful as they were always available and went way above and beyond for us.

Green Leaf team is without a doubt one of the best I have used since living in our house in 20 years. Air ducts from the builder was as no surprise undersized. Explained the issues with our HVAC and totally resolved it. Evaluated the air flow in each rooms adjusted accordingly. Even though we changed our units 8 years ago, no one really addressed the ongoing issues we had in our house. Highly recommend them to anyone in our area.

We are absolutely delighted with the service results Green Leaf a/c and heating provided for our home. The company truly cares about their clients and is extremely professional. Our a/c system started freezing up, and summer is approaching.... We were worried we wouldn’t be able to find anyone that would get to us in a timely manner. We called Green Leaf a/c and heating and they came to our rescue the VERY same day. It made me feel comfortable that before the service technician came to our home we received and email with the technicians name and photo. It’s actually nice to feel like you know them before they arrive, and makes you feel safe. The service technician did a full system check and was able to explain what the issues were. Shortly after the technician left we received a quote. Green Leaf a/c and heating explained the process from start to finish and was able to schedule us on a Saturday and it worked perfect for our household. The installation crew was extremely professional and courteous. We are very pleased and I would recommend this company to anyone! Let’s just say no more hot sleepless nights, things are cooling perfect now! Thank you to everyone @ Green Leaf a/c and heating!

We woke up to hot air coming out of our ducts and made a call, hoping against hope to get a same day appt during this historic heatwave. Fortunately they were able to schedule someone for that evening. After Jeremy arrived he quickly diagnosed our problems and had the system cooling again in no time. He really went above and beyond for us. Can't thank him enough. An hour later our house was cool enough to sleep comfortably. We were ecstatic! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

SUPER RESPONSEIVE. GREAT SERVICE.

From my first contact through their website, Brent was very responsive and helpful in answering all of my questions and providing a competitive quote for a 16 seer system (a/c and heating). Installation was quick and on-time, and Mike and Raul were very professional and safety conscious. They used drop cloths to protect my floors. Installation took about 4.5 hours. Within an hour after the install, my indoor temp had already dropped 6 degrees on a very hot day. I love my new wifi-enabled thermostat (which they installed for free), and I am thrilled to have this new unit as temps are 100+ every day. Even better, I have 18 months to pay off the cost (through Wells Fargo) at 0% interest. I highly recommend Green Leaf A/C and Heating!

The installation crew was here promptly at 9:00 and stayed until both the downstairs and upstairs units were replaced, including replacing the return air ducts that had been improperly installed by the builder. Both units now provide the proper air flow to rooms that never had properly cooled. Brent and his team were extremely professional and easy to work with. Pricing was extremely competitive with other companies and they were able to do the job immediately.

Green Leaf AC Heating and Plumbing

Highly recommend Green Leaf AC Heating and Plumbing. I found out this morning that a very close family friend that is struggling with health problems has not had a functional AC unit for the last 2-3 weeks. I reached out to Darwin Tanksley and he mobilized his team to assess the situation. Bad news is that they need a new system - good news is that it will be installed on Friday (a little over a day after it was inspected). I wont go into all of the details, but what Darwin and his team did for this family shows what a great company this is and how much they care about people.

Kind of a mixed review...Mother's Day Weekend the AC went out...called Saturday...they said they'd come out Sunday...EXCELLENT. I was told the cost is normally $109, but weekend rate was $179 for service call and to check the system...fair enough. AND TO BE FAIR....Several other AC Companies said they could not dispatch anyone for 3-5 days...so THANK YOU Green-Leaf for getting someone out QUICKLY...much appreciated.
Edsel came out on Sunday, good communication and texted he'd be here. When he got here, he confirmed my suspicions that it was a capacitor which is a very simple repair/installation (for lack of a better analogy, it is loosely equivalent to replacing a fuse in a car...not too hard)...and he said it would be about $200, but he may be able to discount it for me somewhat. Having suspected it was the capacitor, I had already ordered one the previous night and it was to be delivered to my house via Amazon...it cost $17. So I told him I'd wait for it to arrive and install it myself instead of paying a $180 markup on a $17 part. He said OK, but since he didn't install it and did not have a "sample" or "working' capacator...he could not check the rest of the system...so that was the end of the service call...fair enough I guess, but it would have been nice to have the rest of the system checked. So he then said the service call was $209...so I tried to remember from my original phone call with the dispatcher...and the cost should be $179...so Edsel accepted that and I paid him in cash....but kinda felt like it had been a price negotiation...which I wasn't expecting.
The following day I get an e-mail from Green Leaf with invoice for $179...but it doesn't say paid...so I call them, and the lady who answered at first asked how I'd like to pay...I said I did...and she checked and verified it...and agreed and sent me a e-mail with a "paid" invoice. She also confirmed that the capacitor part is normally priced at between $150-$180...which is still about a 10x markup (remember, you've already paid for a labor/service call), but she did say that it is covered by 1 year parts and service warranty.
Final Analysis: EXCELLENT RESPONSE TIME and Edsel did seem very qualified at his job.
COST/PRICING: Seemed to be always a negotiation that I had to be aware of...and I get that they need to make money...but up to you whether you think the parts 10x markup is excessive or not...for me, I think it was since a service call had already been paid for.

Came home last night to a non-working AC! Called Green Leaf today…a Sunday…and Mothers Day…and they were here within an hour to fix it! Edsel was fast and friendly and got the house cooling again. Can’t thank Green Leaf enough!
Cheryl Welchon Murphy
Had a heat pump installed today and the installation guys were great. Very friendly, hard working and would recommend them. Can definitely tell a difference in our cooling.
Kathy Huntley
The technician was very friendly and knowledgeable . He explained everything about my service.
Belle Marleen
Not only does Green Leaf AC Heating do HVAC but they do plumbing as well. I would definitely recommend this company. Paul and his guys did awesome work. They explained everything and were very attentive. They repaired the pipes out front that our 18 year old tree finally destroyed. Thank you so much for all the hard work your guys did.
Rich King
Amazing service and very prompt on getting out to get my heater back up and running.
Mel Bee
Always great service! So thankful they were able to come out to service our house the same day with this horrible heat! Will continue to recommend you all to other people.
Michael Waldon
Full disclosure, I almost never do recommendations on any social media, but I feel that I need to regarding Green Leaf. They are awesome! Our HVAC was on its last leg, so I bid out replacing the system and reworking our ducting. I brought in 10 contractors and pick Green Leaf based mainly on the unit I wanted and they had the best bid. Our experience with them on installation day impressed me quite a bit. The ducting work ended up being bigger in scope that initial bid. They brought in another crew, got it done in the time bid and did not attempt to charge any additional amounts. I waited a couple of months to see if the installation had issues and to see if the ducting changes they made worked. Great job guys! We had two rooms that never cooled correctly. Every homeowner with our floor plan complains about them. Well, they cool now! I waited for a day when we would be over 100 degrees and took the thermostat down to 68. System didn't even struggle. Odd wearing sweats on a 100 degree day. I give my highest recommendation to Green Leaf. You can't go wrong.
Joshua Caleb
I have highly recommended Green Leaf to several neighbors and will continue to do so. From the very beginning the whole team was very friendly and professional. A few months after we got our new system a manufacturer's issue caused some problems with the system, but Eddie and his whole team spoke with me almost daily all the way through getting the issues handled and ultimately replacing the unit. Extremely grateful as they were always available and went way above and beyond for us.
John L Strubbe
Green Leaf team is without a doubt one of the best I have used since living in our house in 20 years. Air ducts from the builder was as no surprise undersized. Explained the issues with our HVAC and totally resolved it. Evaluated the air flow in each rooms adjusted accordingly. Even though we changed our units 8 years ago, no one really addressed the ongoing issues we had in our house. Highly recommend them to anyone in our area.
Donna Robison Stanley
We are absolutely delighted with the service results Green Leaf a/c and heating provided for our home. The company truly cares about their clients and is extremely professional. Our a/c system started freezing up, and summer is approaching.... We were worried we wouldn’t be able to find anyone that would get to us in a timely manner. We called Green Leaf a/c and heating and they came to our rescue the VERY same day. It made me feel comfortable that before the service technician came to our home we received and email with the technicians name and photo. It’s actually nice to feel like you know them before they arrive, and makes you feel safe. The service technician did a full system check and was able to explain what the issues were. Shortly after the technician left we received a quote. Green Leaf a/c and heating explained the process from start to finish and was able to schedule us on a Saturday and it worked perfect for our household. The installation crew was extremely professional and courteous. We are very pleased and I would recommend this company to anyone! Let’s just say no more hot sleepless nights, things are cooling perfect now! Thank you to everyone @ Green Leaf a/c and heating!

After recently having our old HVAC units break down, we did some research and decided to give Green Leaf our business because of their combined affordability and great ratings. We are extremely pleased with our choice and have witnessed first-hand the wonderful service Eddie and his team provides. Would definitely recommend Green Leaf to anyone in the market for new AC or heating!

What is a Heat Pump And How Do They Work
Heating pumps are more efficient than traditional air conditioners and furnaces. They pull heat out of a room instead of pushing in the air to cool it down. Some units are even as much as 50 percent more efficient than traditional furnaces and air conditioners.
There are many different kinds of heat pumps on the market right now, and they are not all equal. You want to avoid getting stuck with the wrong unit.
If you are interested in switching over, call a Green Leaf heat pump specialist for your heat pump installation, repair, or maintenance.
Everything You Need To Know About Heat Pump Installation And Repairs
The Advantages and Disadvantages of Switching to a Heat Pump
Heat pump installation can be upwards of thousands of dollars, depending on the size of your home. A figure that does not even include the actual system. That is why it is vital that you know the advantages and disadvantages of switching to a heat pump. Read on to discover why heat pumps are taking the industry by storm.
Advantages
Heat pump installation is one of the best things you can do for your wallet in the long run. Not only do heat pumps last longer than traditional HVAC systems, but they are also infinitely more efficient. It won’t take long to notice that a higher efficiency rating means lower energy bills.
Maintenance is one of the most weighted factors in prolonging your HVAC unit’s life. Failing to maintain it properly will dramatically reduce its life expectancy. One of the most significant advantages of a heat pump is that it does not require as much upkeep. Of course, certain things need to be taken care of once a year, but they are tasks you can easily accomplish yourself.
You will only need a professional heat pump servicer every 3-5 years.
When an HVAC unit generates electricity, CO2 escapes into the atmosphere. Therefore, more CO2 is released into the air when the unit uses more electricity. Heat pumps use minimal amounts of electricity compared to traditional systems.
The average life expectancy of a heat pump is 15 years, but it has gone up as far as 50. Climate and maintenance schedules become significant factors when talking about life expectancy.
Disadvantages
Operating costs for heat pumps are consistently less expensive than central air systems. However, that does not change the fact that the initial price is so steep. Ground source heat pumps can approach $50,000, including installation.
The 30-60% increase in efficiency heat pumps bring to the table explains part of the price tag. The other part comes from the heat pump being two systems in one. It can switch between heating and cooling functions, allowing you to care for one system instead of two.
The heat pump installation process is highly complex. You must understand how heat moves, the local geography, and your home’s heating/cooling needs. DO NOT try to install a heat pump in your home unless you are a licensed professional.
Efficiency ratings start to drop as soon as temperatures dip below 20 degrees Fahrenheit. As you can imagine, this is not a pleasant winter surprise. As a Texas resident, you will be happy to hear that heat pumps do not lose efficiency as temperatures rise. Still, it would be best to consider the Seasonal Performance Factor (SPF) when choosing between heat pumps.
The average life expectancy of a heat pump is 15 years, but it has gone up as far as 50. Climate and maintenance schedules become significant factors when talking about life expectancy.
Texas Weather and Heat Pumps
Is Heat Pump Installation The Right Move For Your Home?
You may be wondering if heat pump installation suits your Central Texas home. Texas weather is often unpredictable.
As soon as you plan for one type of weather, you get hit with something different. Of course, some winter days can get pretty cold, but you never know when you might be wearing shorts. Heat pumps can easily switch between cooling and heating, so you no longer need two different systems.
Pumps can absorb heat in temperatures lower than 20 degrees Fahrenheit, although they begin losing efficiency at 40 degrees. You wouldn’t want a heat pump somewhere it was dropping below 20 degrees consistently, but they are perfect in a place like Texas.
They Are Much More Cost Effective for Texas Winters
A furnace can be overpowering in a place that rarely dips below freezing. Overpowering is never a good thing, especially regarding your heating system. You may struggle to find a comfortable temperature for your home. You will also pay for all the extra energy your furnace uses.
Heat pumps are most efficient in temperatures above 40 degrees Fahrenheit. This makes them highly efficient for Texans all year round. Heating is a big part of heat pumps, but as a Texas resident, you are probably asking, “but what about a/c? “
Heat Pumps Heat AND Cool
With the flip of a switch, you can go from heating your home to cooling it. This kind of flexibility comes in handy here. Your home will always be at a comfortable temperature. It does not matter if it’s a blazing hot summer day, an all too warm winter kind of day, a kind of cold day, or an endless ice storm — heat pumps can take it all.
Heat Pump Repair
Common Problems and Simple Solutions
Heat pumps are expensive, so when problems arise, it is frustrating. Sometimes the solution is simple and something you can fix without help. It is always good to check first, but it can sometimes be more challenging than that. We want to walk you through some of the most basic problems people face with heat pumps.
If you can’t troubleshoot it here, a Green Leaf technician is always standing by for emergency calls and questions.
We want you to use your hard-earned time and money on the things you love. Not a costly heat pump repair. Trying the most straightforward solutions before calling in backup is always a good call:
- Check the thermostat’s power. If it is turned off or, more likely, incorrectly calibrated at installation, you will experience difficulties. If you are able to get the system powered up, you will notice that the air is not at the correct temperature.
- Make sure the outdoor unit did not accidentally get unplugged.
- Remove anything blocking or covering the vents on the outdoor unit. Keep ice and debris from building up and blocking the vents around your outside unit.
Common Problems
Blowing the wrong air into a room is a common problem in heat pumps. This is when you want cold air, and you’re getting hot, or you want hot air, and you are getting cold. This is a problem no matter what time of year it is, especially in the dead of winter or summer.
Your problem could range from low refrigerant to a miscalibrated thermostat. However, faulty parts are also a concern. A trustworthy Heat Pump specialist, like the ones at Green Leaf, can easily find the cause of your problem. As heat pump repair experts, they can also help you solve it.
You should call a professional immediately if your heat pump is making noises you’re unfamiliar with! It could be something as simple as a loose screw but also something out of place or malfunctioning.
It would help if you had someone you’re confident in and know will be able to find the issue. If you hear grinding or squealing noises, call Green Leaf right away. Something minor could be wrong with your heat pump, but it is not worth the risk. It is likely to enter an early grave if left unchecked.
If you are having trouble switching your heat pump from one system to the other, your reversal valve is either stuck or broken. While this sounds bad, this is usually a pretty simple fix for a professional. Just give Green Leaf a call for heat pump repair and we will fix that for you in no time.
New VS Old
Do You Need a Heat Pump Repair Or Should It Be Replaced Entirely?
We don’t always want to admit when it’s time to replace something that cost us a lot. Even if it is something we use every day. We want things repaired by ourselves or a professional, but we rarely want to invest in the future. It’s no different with your heat pump.
An excellent heat pump will last between 10-20 years, depending on how well you take care of it. Around year fifteen, you will begin to notice a drop in efficiency. Fifteen years is a great lifespan, but 20 is even better. It can make it there if maintained well.
Still, signs will begin to appear when the time for a new heat pump is coming.
Old HVAC systems are simply less efficient. It does not matter what kind of system you use. Inefficiency takes many forms.
- It could look like a significant spike in energy bills.
- It could feel like inconsistent temperatures in your home.
- You could experience hot and cold spots in a room.
- It may take longer to reach the correct temperature or be less effective at keeping things hot or cold.
Most heat pump repairs should be straightforward for certified technicians. In most cases, your system is back up and flawlessly running by the end of the day.
For example, if you find you are constantly low on refrigerant, there are bound to be leaks in the sealant. Leaks get more and more common as your system ages. Constantly needing to replace old and worn-out parts is also a bad sign.
A good rule of thumb to follow when trying to determine if you should repair or replace your heat pump is this:
It is worth switching if the total cost of repairs is nearly 50 percent of what a replacement would cost. It is more of an investment upfront but will save you thousands of dollars on heat pump repairs and energy bills.
