Heat Pump Repair & Installationin Hialeah, FL
Heat pumps that cool in summer and heat efficiently on South Florida's few cold nights.
Heat Pump Repair & Installation for Hialeah buildings
A typical Hialeah house has a low-slope roof with almost no attic, so the air handler sits in a hallway closet or the garage and the ducts run through a shallow space that reaches very high temperatures in summer. Additions and converted garages are common too, and they are often served by an undersized system or a window unit. We size equipment for the house as it is lived in today, and mini splits are usually the cleanest answer for an added room.
A heat pump is an air conditioner that can run in reverse. In summer it cools exactly like a standard system, and on a cold morning it moves heat indoors using a fraction of the electricity an electric heat strip needs.
South Florida's mild winters are the ideal conditions for a heat pump, which is why they are the most common system type in the region.
Heat pump problems we repair
- Cools normally but will not heat, or the reverse
- Stuck in one mode because of a failed reversing valve
- Outdoor unit iced over in heating mode
- Auxiliary heat running constantly
- Loud noise when the system changes mode
Our approach
- We test the system in both cooling and heating modes.
- We check the reversing valve, defrost control, sensors and refrigerant charge.
- You receive a fixed repair price, or replacement options if the unit is at the end of its life.
Heat Pump Repair & Installation in Hialeah: questions
Is a heat pump better than a straight-cool AC with electric heat in Miami?
For most homes, yes. Cooling performance is the same, and heating costs roughly a third as much as resistance heat strips. The price difference between the two types is small.
Is a permit required for HVAC work in Hialeah?
Installing or replacing air conditioning equipment in Hialeah requires a mechanical permit and a final inspection. Permits here are issued by the City of Hialeah Building Department. Repairs, maintenance and cleaning do not need one. We file the paperwork and attend the inspection.
Do your technicians speak Spanish?
Yes. You can book, get your diagnosis and receive your written quote in Spanish or English.
My Hialeah home has an addition that never cools properly. What can you do?
Additions and enclosed garages are usually connected to a system that was sized for the original house. We calculate the load of the added space and either rebalance the ductwork or install a dedicated ductless mini split, which is typically the more reliable fix. New equipment is permitted through the City of Hialeah Building Department.
