Fast, Accurate Heat Pump Repairs That Restore Heating and Cooling Quickly
Earlier this year we helped a homeowner in Cornelius who noticed their heat pump was constantly switching between heating and cooling on its own. The system had been reliable for years, but recently the house felt drafty, the thermostat readings were inconsistent, and the outdoor unit seemed louder than normal.
When our technician arrived, he checked the reversing valve operation, tested the thermostat communication, inspected refrigerant pressures, and evaluated the outdoor defrost cycle. The cause turned out to be a failing sensor that was sending mixed signals to the system. After showing the homeowner the readings and explaining what the sensor was doing behind the scenes, he replaced the part, recalibrated the system, and confirmed everything was switching modes correctly again.
A few days later the homeowner said the house felt stable and comfortable in every room, with no more sudden temperature swings. Heat pumps rely on precise sensors and controls, so a clear diagnostic is the key to fast, effective repairs. Our goal is always to explain the issue in simple terms and make the system dependable again.

Frequently Asked Questions About Heat Pump Repair
Heat pumps are efficient, but when they develop issues, they often show symptoms that differ from traditional heating and cooling systems. Below are the questions we hear most often about heat pump repair from homeowners throughout Hillsboro, Beaverton, Multnomah Village, and nearby communities.
Why is my heat pump blowing cold air in heat mode?
This often happens when the reversing valve is stuck, refrigerant levels are low, or the outdoor unit is in defrost mode. A technician can determine the exact cause with a diagnostic visit.
What causes a heat pump to switch modes unexpectedly?
Failing sensors, thermostat communication issues, or control board problems can cause a heat pump to switch between heating and cooling without warning.
Can most heat pump repairs be completed in one visit?
Yes. Many common issues such as sensors, capacitors, and communication components can be repaired on the same day since our service vehicles carry the most frequently needed parts.
Why is my outdoor heat pump unit freezing over?
A frozen outdoor unit can result from airflow restrictions, low refrigerant, a failing defrost cycle, or dirty coils. Turning the system off and scheduling service helps prevent additional strain.
Should I turn off my heat pump if it starts making unusual noises?
Yes. Noises like buzzing, grinding, or rattling may indicate electrical issues or failing mechanical components. Turning it off prevents further damage until a technician can inspect it.
