Common problems
Heat pump problems we help with in Invercargill
If your heat pump is doing any of these, get it checked before it gets worse.
Not heating or cooling
Blowing air that is lukewarm or not changing temperature. Often a blocked filter, a low refrigerant charge or a sensor fault.
Water leaking inside
Drips from the indoor unit usually mean a blocked or poorly graded drain line. Turn it off if water is near power.
Error code or flashing light
Most units show a code when something is wrong. Note it down and put it on the form. It helps the technician come prepared.
Strange noises
Rattling, grinding, squealing or loud clicking from either unit can point to a loose panel, a failing fan or a compressor issue.
Bad smell
A musty smell when it starts usually means mould or dirt on the coil and filters. A proper clean normally sorts it.
Won't turn on
Check the remote batteries and the switch at the board first. If it still won't start, it needs a licensed technician.
Servicing in Invercargill
Heat pump servicing in Invercargill
Ask for heating capacity at −7 °C or lower. A unit that only looks good at 7 °C will disappoint you. Wind and rain make outdoor placement and a decent drain part of the job. A yearly service keeps your heat pump running efficiently through the Invercargill winter.
Most manufacturers recommend a service once a year, and it can be a condition of the warranty.

Heat pump repairs in Invercargill: questions
Can I get a heat pump repaired in Invercargill?

Who does the repair?
A local heat pump business in your area. We pass your request to them. They contact you, visit, and do the work.
Can you repair any brand?
Most local heat pump businesses work on all the common brands, including Mitsubishi, Daikin, Panasonic, Fujitsu and Samsung. Put your brand on the form so the technician knows before they call.
How often should a heat pump be serviced?
Once a year is a good rule, or every six months if it runs most of the day or you live near the coast. Clean the indoor filters yourself every few weeks in winter.
Is it safe to keep using it?
If it is leaking water near power, tripping the switchboard or smells of burning, turn it off at the switch and leave it off until it has been checked.
Can I top up the gas myself?
No. Refrigerant work must be done by someone with a refrigerant handling licence. A unit that is low on gas also has a leak that needs finding.
What does a repair cost?
It depends on the fault. The technician will tell you what they find and what the fix involves before they do the work.
