Why heat pumps need a different kind of technician
A heat pump both heats and cools your home through the same refrigerant system, switching direction with a reversing valve depending on the season. That makes it meaningfully more complex to diagnose than a standalone furnace or AC unit, and it's a common source of misdiagnosis among generalist technicians who mostly work on one or the other. Our team works on heat pumps year-round, in both their heating and cooling modes, which matters because a problem that only shows up in one mode is easy to miss if you're not looking for it
Signs your heat pump needs attention
Ice building up on the outdoor unit outside of a normal defrost cycle, the system running constantly without reaching the set temperature, blowing noticeably cool air during a heating cycle for more than a few minutes, rising electric bills without a clear reason, new rattling or clicking noises, or the outdoor unit failing to kick on at all. A heat pump that's constantly switching between heating and cooling modes, or one where the auxiliary/backup heat seems to run more than it should, is also worth a diagnostic visit.
What a heat pump service call looks like
We check refrigerant charge, inspect both the indoor and outdoor coils, test the reversing valve, and verify the defrost cycle is functioning correctly — since a stuck defrost cycle is one of the most common reasons a heat pump seems to "blow cold air" in winter. Electrical components, including capacitors and contactors, get tested under load rather than just visually inspected, since some failures only show up once the system is actually running.
Common heat pump repairs
Refrigerant leaks, failed reversing valves, worn contactors and capacitors, frozen outdoor coils, and control board faults are the repairs we see most often. Multi-zone systems add zone controller and damper issues to that list, which is why it helps to have a technician familiar with both single- and multi-zone setups.

Areas we service

Repair or replace?
Heat pumps typically last 12–15 years with regular maintenance. If yours is approaching that range and needs a costly repair — a compressor or reversing valve replacement, for instance — we’ll walk through whether that repair cost makes sense compared to a new, more efficient system.
When your heat pump stops heating, stops cooling, or starts making strange noises, you need answers fast — not a sales pitch. Lynnwood Heating LLC has been repairing heat pumps for homes across Lynnwood and Snohomish County, and every visit starts with a real diagnosis, not an assumption.
