Not necessarily! Often, a lack of cooling is a repairable issue, like a refrigerant leak or a faulty capacitor—common problems we see in our area.

If your system is old, inefficient, and constantly breaking down, we'll discuss replacement options that can improve your comfort and lower your energy bills for the long term.

The reversing valve is the crucial component that allows your heat pump to switch between heating and cooling modes. In our Maryland climate, with frequent season changes, this valve cycles constantly, which can lead to wear. Common signs of failure include the system being stuck in one mode or reduced efficiency. Elite's technicians are highly skilled at diagnosing and repairing or replacing faulty reversing valves to restore your system's full functionality for both summer and winter.

Our tailored maintenance plans are the best defense against the specific issues we see in Pasadena. A seasonal tune-up includes cleaning coils, checking refrigerant levels, inspecting electrical components, and testing the reversing valve operation. This proactive care helps your system run more efficiently, prevents minor issues from becoming major summer breakdowns, and extends the lifespan of your equipment, saving you money and stress during our most extreme weather.
