Fessenden HVAC Repair | Frozen Heat Pump & Uneven Heating Experts | Weigelt Refrigeration & Heating

Frozen heat pump components are a common issue here due to our extreme cold, often caused by refrigerant leaks, airflow blockages, or defrost cycle problems. Don't try to chip away the ice, as this can damage the coils. First, check and replace any clogged air filters, then switch the system to 'emergency heat' mode on your thermostat and call us. Our technicians will safely thaw the unit, diagnose the root cause, and make the necessary repairs to prevent it from happening again.

Uneven heating often stems from issues like poorly balanced ductwork, leaky or uninsulated ducts in crawl spaces or attics, or a furnace that's incorrectly sized for your home's layout. As local experts, we start with a comprehensive heating system evaluation. We'll inspect your ductwork for leaks and imbalances, check insulation, and assess your furnace's output. Solutions can include duct sealing, rebalancing the system, or adding zoning controls to ensure consistent comfort in every room.

Proactive maintenance is key to reliability in our climate. We recommend a professional tune-up twice a year: in the fall for your heating system and in the spring for your cooling. This includes checking refrigerant levels, cleaning coils, inspecting electrical components, testing the defrost cycle on heat pumps, and ensuring your ductwork is sealed. This preventative care helps avoid winter emergencies like frozen components, improves efficiency to combat uneven heating, and extends the life of your entire system.
