Common Heat Pump Repairs in Lombard
We repair ducted heat pumps, dual-fuel systems and ductless mini-split heat pumps across Lombard. The fixes we make most are capacitors, contactors, defrost sensors, defrost control boards and crankcase heaters, plus refrigerant leaks found with a nitrogen pressure test. Reversing valves and compressors are less common but we replace those too.
Our Heat Pump Repair Process in Lombard
We diagnose in the failing mode, measure before replacing anything and explain what we find. Most heat pump repairs are electrical or control parts we carry on the truck. Refrigerant leaks are found with a nitrogen pressure test, and you get a written price for each step.
Is Your Lombard Heat Pump Worth Fixing?
A heat pump usually lasts 12 to 15 years here, a bit less than a furnace because it runs in both seasons. Repair makes sense when the failure is isolated, like a capacitor, contactor, defrost sensor or defrost board. Consider replacement when an older unit needs a compressor ($2,935) or a reversing valve ($1,470), or keeps leaking refrigerant. Replacement estimates are free.

Heat Pump Questions From Lombard
Is heat pump repair priced by the hour?
No. Every repair is flat-rate with parts and labor included. Most cost $275 to $765 in Lombard.
My heat pump runs but the house stays cold. What is wrong?
It could be low refrigerant, a defrost problem, a dirty filter or backup heat that is not staging on. In very cold weather, a heat pump alone may also fall behind, which is what backup heat is for.
How far is Pure Comfort from Lombard?
About 30 minutes from our shop in Streamwood. We cover Lombard homes in 60148.
How does a heat pump defrost cycle work?
The system briefly runs in cooling mode to warm the outdoor coil and melt frost. If ice keeps building, a sensor, control board or reversing valve is often the cause.
What heat pump brands do you service?
All major brands, including Lennox, Carrier, Trane, Goodman, Rheem, Mitsubishi and Bosch.
Should I repair or replace a 12-year-old heat pump?
Small repairs are usually worth it. A compressor or reversing valve on a heat pump that old usually is not, so we price both.
What does a heat pump tune-up include?
Electrical tests, refrigerant check, coil and drain cleaning, defrost and reversing valve checks and a look at the backup heat.
