Heat Pump Maintenance & Tune-Ups in Des Plaines, IL

What's Included in a Heat Pump Tune-Up

Our comprehensive heat pump maintenance visit covers both the indoor and outdoor components that affect your system's performance. We clean the outdoor coils and fins to maximize heat transfer, inspect refrigerant levels and check for leaks, clean or replace air filters, and examine electrical connections and capacitors for safe operation. A dirty or neglected heat pump works harder, uses more energy, and can develop costly failures — a tune-up prevents all of that.

We also test the reversing valve that switches between heating and cooling, verify defrost cycle operation, lubricate the blower motor, measure airflow across your supply vents, and confirm that your system starts, runs, and shuts down properly in both modes. After the visit, you'll receive a clear summary of your system's condition and honest recommendations for any repairs or improvements — no pressure, just straightforward guidance to protect your home and your investment.
