Expert heat pump repair, installation, and maintenance. Year-round comfort with energy-efficient technology — serving Clayton, Raleigh, and Durham.
Heat pumps are one of the most energy-efficient ways to heat and cool your home, and North Carolina's moderate climate makes them an ideal choice for homeowners throughout the Triangle. Frost Fire Heating and Cooling provides comprehensive heat pump services including repair, installation, and maintenance for all types of heat pump systems — air-source, dual-fuel, and geothermal.
Unlike traditional HVAC systems that generate heat by burning fuel, heat pumps work by transferring heat between your home and the outdoor air. In summer, they move heat out of your home to cool it. In winter, they extract heat from the outdoor air and bring it inside. This process uses significantly less energy than conventional heating methods, which means lower utility bills for you and a smaller carbon footprint for the environment.
Whether your existing heat pump needs repair, you're considering upgrading to a new high-efficiency model, or you want to switch from a traditional furnace/AC combo to a heat pump system, Frost Fire has the expertise to help. Our licensed technicians are trained on all major heat pump brands and models, and we stay current with the latest heat pump technology including variable-speed compressors and cold-climate heat pumps that perform efficiently even in sub-freezing temperatures.
While some frost is normal in heating mode, excessive ice buildup indicates defrost cycle issues, low refrigerant, or airflow problems.
Reversing valve failures, refrigerant leaks, compressor issues, or thermostat problems can prevent proper mode switching.
A heat pump that never shuts off may be undersized, have low refrigerant, or be struggling with a dirty outdoor coil.
Grinding, squealing, or buzzing from your heat pump can indicate compressor wear, fan motor issues, or loose components.
If your heat pump is relying too heavily on auxiliary/emergency heat strips, something is wrong. This can triple your electricity costs.
Reduced airflow from your vents can stem from dirty filters, duct problems, or a failing blower motor in the air handler.
