When my 25+ year old furnace quit running, I placed phone calls to a few local HVAC contractors. Shortly after leaving a message with Spurk, Lisa promptly returned my call and told me a technician (Chuck) would arrive within a few hours to diagnose the problem. Chuck discussed my options and recommended a furnace replacement.

Nick was awesome. He was very thorough and explained everything to me about my furnace repair. I will have him back soon to do my furnace maintenance. I called in the morning and early that afternoon the same day, Nick my technician was here. Minor issue but he got our furnace running quickly.

Charlie was at my home for a maintenance visit, and he was great!! I did not feel pressured to complete any work or repairs on my system. He gave me a full report of my system and talked me through the findings. He even talked me into a membership so I can be more diligent with my system. Great service, great company!!

Spurk replaced our old original heating and air conditioning systems. The Techs did a great job both the attic (it had to be hot up there) and basement systems over several days. Everyone was very polite, prompt and professional. We have used them for previous services, so surprises there. Thank you to the whole Spurk team!

We moved in here about a year ago and had not had AC checked. Spurk servicemen showed up and worked diligently (on likely the hottest day of the year) their whole time here. They found some issues that would have led to system shut down. Fixed that.

Top to bottom Spurk HVAC, LLC gets the job done to your satisfaction. The quote process was easy and simple, and Ethan in the front office was very helpful when it came to explanation and suggestion. Because they’re in the upper echelon of mini split installers, he was able to model out my basement to find the perfect sizing for the job.

Common Heat Pump Problems

Defrost problems are one of the most common issues we see during Warrendale winters. When temperatures drop near freezing, frost naturally forms on the outdoor coil, and your heat pump runs a defrost cycle to clear it. If the defrost control, sensor, or reversing valve fails, ice keeps building up until the system can’t move heat anymore. Snow, sleet, and freezing rain piling up around the outdoor unit can make this even worse.

Refrigerant leaks are another frequent problem. Your heat pump relies on refrigerant to move heat in and out of your home, so even a small leak can significantly reduce its heating and cooling capacity. You might notice the system running longer, struggling to reach your set temperature, or icing up in the summer. We also repair failed capacitors, worn contactors, bad compressors, faulty thermostats, and blower motors that have quit.

Our humid summers put extra demand on heat pumps, too. In cooling mode, your system pulls moisture from the air, and that water has to drain properly. Clogged condensate lines can cause leaks, water damage, and a sticky, muggy feel inside your home. Dirty coils and filters also make your system work harder in both seasons, which shortens the life of key parts.

Our Heat Pump Repair Services

Every heat pump repair starts with a full diagnostic. Our technician checks the outdoor and indoor units, refrigerant levels, electrical parts, reversing valve, defrost controls, and thermostat. We find the actual cause of the problem rather than guessing or swapping parts until something works.

Once we know what’s wrong, we explain it to you in plain terms. You’ll hear what needs fixing, what it will cost, and whether repair makes sense for your system’s age and condition. If your heat pump is near the end of its life and a repair won’t hold up, we’ll tell you that honestly. You always make the final call.

We use proven, high-quality parts so your repair lasts. Before we leave, we run your heat pump in both heating and cooling modes to ensure everything is working as it should. If we notice anything else that could cause trouble down the road, we’ll point it out so you’re not caught off guard later.

Emergency Heat Pump Repair

Some heat pump problems can’t wait. Losing heat during a Western Pennsylvania cold snap can lead to frozen pipes and put kids, older family members, and pets at risk. A total breakdown during a hot, humid stretch in summer can make your home uncomfortable fast, too.

Spurk offers emergency heat pump repair when your system fails unexpectedly. Call us and we’ll respond promptly to get your heating or cooling back on. If your heat pump is running on emergency heat only, it may still keep you warm, but it’s using much more energy and needs to be checked soon.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is my heat pump blowing cold air in winter?

It may be in a normal defrost cycle, which only lasts a few minutes. If cold air keeps blowing, the reversing valve, refrigerant level, or defrost controls may need repair.

A light layer of frost in cold weather is normal and should clear during defrost. If the unit stays covered in ice, call us for heat pump repair.

Heat pumps naturally run longer than furnaces in cold weather. But if it never shuts off in mild temperatures, it may be low on refrigerant or have a faulty part.

Yes. Many heat pumps work well in our climate, and most have backup heat for the coldest days. Regular maintenance helps them perform their best.

If your heat pump is older and needs frequent or expensive repairs, replacement may make more sense. We’ll give you an honest recommendation either way.
