In the last few years, thousands of homeowners in Vermont have trusted the co-op to clean their mini split heat pumps. Heat pumps are very resilient and stand up well to Vermont winters but they must be maintained regularly to keep them functioning efficiently and safely. There are two main reasons for deep cleaning your heat pump on an annual basis.
- For indoor air quality – Your heat pump is constantly working to purify the air in your home by capturing dust and debris. These particles over time clog up your filters and gum up the blower that is circulating the air. Cleaning the dust and debris restores your heat pump to full cooling & heating capacity.
- For your Health – One of the most often occurring problems is mold growth inside the heat pump. Heat pumps can easily be exposed to moisture and high humidity levels. Mold loves moisture and if it starts to grow in your heat pump it can easily spread throughout the home.
