Common Signs Your Heat Pump Needs Professional Repair

Heat pumps are complex systems, but they often provide clear warning signs before a complete failure. If you notice any of the following issues, it's time to call Piggies Air Conditioning for a professional diagnosis to prevent minor problems from becoming costly breakdowns.

Inadequate Heating or Cooling

If your system is running but the air coming from your vents isn't hot or cold enough, you could have issues with refrigerant levels, a failing compressor, or a faulty reversing valve.

Unusual and Loud Noises

Your heat pump should operate with a consistent, low hum. Grinding, squealing, or rattling noises often indicate mechanical problems, such as worn-out motor bearings or loose components that require immediate attention.

Constant Short Cycling

Does your heat pump turn on and off every few minutes? This “short cycling” puts excessive strain on the system, drives up energy costs, and can be caused by anything from a clogged filter to an oversized unit or a faulty thermostat.

A Sudden Spike in Energy Bills

A heat pump is designed for efficiency. If your utility bills are suddenly much higher without a change in usage, your system is likely working overtime to compensate for an underlying issue, such as a refrigerant leak or a struggling motor.

Frozen Coils or Outdoor Unit

Finding ice on your outdoor unit, especially during cooler weather, is a classic sign of trouble. This can be caused by low refrigerant, poor airflow due to dirty filters or coils, or a malfunctioning defrost cycle.

Weak or Inconsistent Airflow

If the air pressure from your vents feels weak, the problem could be a failing blower motor, obstructed ductwork, or a severely clogged air filter.

Our certified technician arrives equipped with advanced diagnostic tools to perform a complete inspection of your heat pump. We meticulously test components, check refrigerant pressures, inspect electrical connections, and analyze system performance to pinpoint the exact root cause of the problem.

Clear Explanation and Upfront Assessment

Once we identify the issue, we explain it to you in clear, understandable terms. We’ll show you what’s wrong and present a detailed breakdown of the necessary repairs and the associated costs before any work begins. You’ll have all the information needed to make an informed decision.

Expert Repair with Quality Parts

Final System Testing and Optimization

After completing the repair, we don’t just pack up and leave. We thoroughly test the entire system to ensure it is operating at optimal efficiency and providing the consistent comfort you expect. We calibrate the thermostat, check airflow, and verify that all cycles are running smoothly.

Repair vs. Replacement: Honest Guidance for Bradbury Homeowners

A common question we hear is whether it’s better to repair an aging heat pump or invest in a new one. The right answer depends on several factors, and Piggies Air Conditioning provides honest, expert guidance to help you decide.

Age of the Unit

Most heat pumps have a lifespan of 10–15 years. If your unit is approaching or has surpassed this age, investing in major repairs may not be cost-effective in the long run.

Cost of the Repair

A good rule of thumb is the 50% rule. If the cost of a repair is close to half the cost of a new system, replacement is often the smarter financial choice, especially when considering the improved efficiency of modern units.

Frequency of Breakdowns

If you find yourself calling for repairs every year, those costs are adding up. A new, reliable system can provide peace of mind and save you from the hassle and expense of repeated service calls.

Energy Efficiency

Newer heat pumps are significantly more energy-efficient than models from a decade ago. Upgrading can lead to substantial savings on your monthly utility bills, helping the new system pay for itself over time.

Customer Testimonials

Ruben and team at Piggies Air Conditioning were amazing to work with. They got our AC installed and our old unit removed within 1 day and at a great price. We highly recommend Piggies Air Conditioning!

Ruben from Piggies went above and beyond when he came to provide us with a quote for doing some duct work. He was also able to identify the underlying problem as to why we have been having a major issue with our heat in our office suite. He took photos, explained the issue, what he could and could not do, and what to communicate to our property owner. He spent far longer answering questions and finding the source of an issue that wasn't even the reason why he was onsite. EXCELLENT
CUSTOMER SERVICE!

First of all I NEVER do reviews or rate any company or product. But, Piggies Air Conditioning did an amazing job at a GREAT price! I always get at least 3 estimates, and in this particular situation, I had at least 5. These guys were the most reasonable by several thousand dollars, with BETTER equipment that the others! Our ac and heat package is at least a 17 seer system, which is top of the line! I've been in the construction business my entire life, and dealt with many companies from all the trades. It really doesn't get any better than Piggies! This company and its personnel were on time, and courteous, which is hard to come by these days. Ruben, Luis were very professional, and I was in constant contact with them throughout the job. The Daikin product is one of the best in the world! I'm giving Piggies two thumbs way up!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Piggies Air Conditioning, and I can't recommend them enough! From the moment I contacted Ruben, their team displayed an impressive level of knowledge and experience in the field. They answered all of my MANY questions with ease and friendliness and provided insights that really helped me understand my options and the scope of work as a whole. The communication throughout the process was fantastic. They kept me informed every step of the way, which was especially reassuring as a new homeowner navigating this kind of installation for the first time.

It was clear they respected our home as if it were their own, which is surprisingly rare in certain service fields, and greatly appreciated. Overall, my experience with Piggies Air Conditioning was excellent, and I would gladly recommend them to anyone in need of HVAC services.

Professionalism & Quality work at its utmost best!
1st & foremost, huge shout out to Ruben thank u so so much for reaching out & making things happen SO FAST! I was so surprised since i had reached out to a couple different places who lagged on even answering calls, messages, etc.

Ruben was very responsive and quick to assess. Gave really great advice and cares about the service he provides. Looking forward to using Piggies for HVAC issues and maintenance.

Tran L.

Overall great job replacing our antiquated AC unit. The evaluation and detail is a big deal to us. Rueben explained all the techincal aspects and gave us great
recommendations and feedback. The actual installation was painless and unremarkable, his AC experts got it done, got it cleaned and most importantly got it right. Rueben even went a step further to assure we had
protection from the coming rain, that is service unheard of these days. His price was competitive and a REAL value for the service we recieved. Using anyone else for your AC needs, would be a huge mistake. We thank them again and will recommend to everyone.

Therese F.

I am a realtor in Los Angeles, and while we were getting ready to sell my clients home in Pasadena, an inspector from another company backed into my clients air conditioner. I was referred to Piggies AC by another trusted client so I called them. I talked to Ruben, he answered the phone right away, answered some of my initial questions, and was able to get me an appointment just two days later. On site Ruben was there on time, was extremely knowledgeable, And told us the best course of action to get the AC unit back in good working order. A day or two later he sent us an invoice and his prices were very reasonable. I am happy, Client is happy, thank you Ruben!

Woody M.

Leaving a 5-star review just after the initial inspection because I was blown away by Ruben's professionalism.
Echoing a lot of the other reviews here, Piggies Air Conditioning responds so quickly to requests (even though I actually accidentally sent in multiple requests on my side without responding, oops!)
They were able to come do a FREE energy audit and initial inspection on the same day and Ruben was amazing at explaining his thoughts on our house's situation and what he thought was worth the money and wasn't worth the money.
I truly felt like he was trying to help me find the best solution to our issues instead of just trying to upsell us on everything and anything.
I'm definitely recommending this business to anyone I know if they want a trustworthy and realistic service, value, and quality.
