Heat Pump Maintenance Services in Northern Colorado

Your Heat Pump Works 12 Months a Year — It Needs Attention Twice

Unlike a furnace that rests all summer or an AC that sits idle all winter, your heat pump operates year-round. That means twice the wear, twice the stress on components, and twice the importance of regular maintenance. Compass Heating & Cooling recommends twice-yearly heat pump maintenance — once before heating season and once before cooling.

We maintain heat pump systems across Northern Colorado, including Fort Collins, Greeley, and Loveland.

What Maintenance Includes

Outdoor unit — coil cleaning, fan inspection, defrost system testing. Indoor unit — evaporator inspection, blower testing, condensate clearing. Refrigerant — level verification and leak inspection. Reversing valve — testing proper mode switching. Electrical — connection tightening, capacitor testing, amp draw measurement. Thermostat — calibration in both modes.

Why Defrost Cycle Testing Matters Here

When outdoor temperatures drop below about 35 degrees, frost forms on the outdoor coil. The defrost cycle melts it. If the defrost sensor or control fails, ice builds until the coil is completely blocked and heating drops dramatically. Our technicians test the defrost system during every pre-winter visit.

Homeowners in Johnstown and Evans with heat pumps should be especially attentive to pre-winter maintenance, as these areas can experience sustained cold earlier in the season. Our local maintenance team ensures your defrost system is ready before the first hard freeze.

Whether you have an air-source system in Windsor or a ductless configuration in Berthoud, we service all major brands.

The Compass Club for Heat Pump Owners

At $11.99/month, the Compass Club covers both your pre-winter and pre-summer maintenance visits. Members also get priority service, 10% off repairs, and up to $1,000 off replacement. For heat pump owners, this is the best value because you need twice the service visits.
