FAQs
What should I do if my outdoor heat pump unit in Ham Lake has ice buildup?
Ice buildup on your heat pump's outdoor unit is a common issue in our Minnesota climate, often caused by defrost cycle problems or refrigerant issues. First, safely turn the system to 'emergency heat' mode at your thermostat to prevent further damage. Do not attempt to chip away the ice yourself, as this can harm the delicate coils. Call McAlister Mechanical. Our technicians are experienced with this local problem and will diagnose whether it's a simple defrost control issue, low refrigerant, or a airflow obstruction. We provide prompt, effective repairs to restore efficient operation and prevent future freezing.
