Templar Heating and Air - Port Richey's Local HVAC Repair

This is a frequent sign of a failing heat pump reversing valve, a common issue in Port Richey due to our system's year-round use switching between heating and cooling. The valve directs refrigerant flow to change modes. If it's stuck, malfunctioning, or has lost charge, your system can't produce heat. Our technicians can test the valve's solenoid and pressure to diagnose the problem and perform the necessary repair or replacement to restore proper heating.

A humming sound without the compressor and fan starting often points to a failed electrical capacitor. These components provide the necessary jolt of electricity to start the motors, and Florida's heat and humidity can cause them to weaken and fail over time. This is a very common repair we handle. Replacing a faulty capacitor is typically a quick fix for our technicians to get your cooling system running smoothly again.

Regular preventative maintenance is key. For our local climate, we recommend a bi-annual tune-up—once before the cooling season and once before heating season. This allows our experts to check critical components like capacitors for bulging or leakage, test the reversing valve operation, clean coils affected by local pollen and humidity, and ensure your system is running efficiently. This proactive care can prevent most common breakdowns and extend your system's lifespan.
