How often should I have my Carrier heat pump serviced?

Heat pumps should receive professional maintenance at least once per year, ideally in spring or autumn before the peak heating or cooling seasons. Between professional visits, clean or replace filters every 1-3 months.

Is it normal for my Carrier heat pump to run constantly in cold weather?

Yes, it is completely normal for a heat pump to run continuously during very cold weather. Because heat pumps extract heat from outdoor air, they must work harder when temperatures are low. If the unit runs constantly in mild weather or cannot maintain temperature, contact a qualified technician.

How often should I change the air filter on my Carrier air conditioner?

Air filters should be changed or cleaned every 1 to 3 months, depending on usage, environmental conditions, and the type of filter installed. Homes with pets, high dust levels, or allergy sufferers may need more frequent filter changes.

What do COP and SCOP ratings mean for heat pumps?

COP (Coefficient of Performance) shows how much heat a system produces per unit of electricity at a specific temperature. SCOP (Seasonal COP) averages this over an entire heating season, providing a more realistic efficiency measure. A SCOP of 3.5 means the system produces 3.5 kWh of heat for every 1 kWh of electricity consumed.

Why is my Carrier heat pump blowing cold air when set to heat?

This could be caused by incorrect thermostat settings, the system being in defrost mode, or a fault requiring investigation. Check the thermostat is set to heating mode. During defrost cycles, the outdoor unit temporarily stops heating - this is normal operation.
