B & R Heating & Air Conditioning | Certified HVAC Repair in Lexington, KY

This is often caused by a faulty reversing valve, a common issue with our local heat pumps. This valve switches the system between heating and cooling. When it sticks or fails, it can't direct refrigerant properly, leaving you with cool air when you need heat. Our technicians can diagnose the valve issue and perform the precise repair to restore your home's comfort.

High bills often stem from an aging system working too hard, dirty coils, low refrigerant, or inadequate insulation. We start with a comprehensive energy audit of your HVAC system, checking for these inefficiencies. Based on our findings, we might recommend a professional tune-up, specific repairs, or discuss if a newer, more efficient model could provide significant long-term savings on your utility costs.

To prevent issues like reversing valve failure and high energy use, we recommend bi-annual maintenance. In the spring, we'll prepare your cooling system by cleaning coils, checking refrigerant, and ensuring electrical connections are tight. In the fall, we focus on your heating, inspecting heat exchangers, testing safety controls, and verifying the reversing valve cycles correctly. This proactive care improves reliability and efficiency.
