Why Is My Heat Pump Running But Not Cooling Properly?

Your heat pump can run without cooling due to poor airflow, incorrect thermostat settings, a dirty filter or coil, low refrigerant, or a duct/zone issue. In coastal areas, corrosion can also reduce performance. Our nationally trained and certified technicians can diagnose and repair heat pump issues with upfront pricing. Regular tune-ups (heat pump maintenance) help prevent these problems and keep inverter/variable-speed systems operating efficiently.

Quick checks:

• Set thermostat to Cool and lower the setpoint.
• Replace a dirty air filter.
• Ensure outdoor unit has clear airflow.
• If ice is present, turn system off and call for service.
