Air source heat pumps (ASHPs) are an eco-friendly, energy-efficient way to heat your home, but like any system, they need regular maintenance to keep performing at their best. At Prestige Services, we offer professional air source heat pump servicing in South Cerney and surrounding villages, helping homeowners get the most from their low-carbon heating.
Whether your system is brand new or several years old, regular servicing ensures it stays efficient, reliable, and covered by manufacturer warranties. We’re a trusted, independent local business, and our customers rely on us for prompt, expert support all year round.
Air source heat pumps are designed for year-round performance — but like any hard-working appliance, they benefit greatly from routine care. Servicing helps protect your system’s performance, efficiency, and reliability over time.
Even a small build-up of dirt or minor faults can reduce your system’s effectiveness. Servicing restores efficiency, helping your pump deliver more heat using less energy.
Regular maintenance means parts stay in better condition for longer. It’s a cost-effective way to get more years out of your investment.
Servicing uncovers wear and potential failures before they disrupt your heating and hot water supply. Prevention is far cheaper than repair.
Manufacturer warranties usually require proof of annual maintenance. Our service includes all the paperwork you need to keep your coverage in place.
We inspect the system to ensure it consistently heats your home and water, no matter the season — essential for comfort and peace of mind.
Lower energy consumption means a smaller carbon footprint. Servicing ensures your system remains an environmentally friendly heating solution.
Heat pumps are durable, but several recurring faults can affect performance — especially if routine servicing is overlooked.
The refrigerant inside the system plays a crucial role in moving heat. If leaks develop, which can happen over time, you may notice reduced heating output or efficiency across your South Cerney property.
Electrical faults in components like the control board, fan, or compressor can lead to irregular operation or unexpected shutdowns. These issues often require diagnostic testing.
Filters that are full of dust or debris restrict airflow. This makes the heat pump less efficient and increases strain on the system — a common issue in both homes and businesses.
Temperature and pressure sensors can fail, leading to improper system responses and heating issues.
In cold conditions, freezing of the heat exchanger can stop the system from working entirely.
Every heat pump service by Prestige Services is detailed and professional. We check, clean, and test key areas, including:
A careful inspection for wear, water ingress, or signs of physical damage to indoor and outdoor units.
Filters are cleaned or replaced to improve airflow and prevent blockages.
e external fan and coils are cleaned to prevent performance issues and maintain heat extraction efficiency.
We measure levels to ensure your system is operating safely and within the correct range.
All user controls and thermostats are tested for response, accuracy and function.
We run the unit through a complete cycle to monitor heating performance and identify any irregularities.
You receive a full summary of the service, including our findings, actions taken, and any recommendations.
For most homes, an annual service is recommended to keep your air source heat pump running efficiently and within the terms of its warranty. A yearly check helps maintain performance and reduce the risk of unexpected faults.
If your system is used heavily — such as in a larger household, or if it supplies both heating and constant hot water — you might benefit from servicing every six months. This can help catch wear and tear earlier and extend the life of the system.
If you’ve recently moved into a property in South Cerney and don’t know the service history, we recommend booking a professional inspection to assess the system and bring it up to standard if needed.
Even if your heat pump seems to be running, these issues could indicate underlying problems:
Banging, buzzing, or rattling from the unit may signal loose components, worn bearings, or airflow obstructions that need attention.
If your system takes longer than usual to reach the desired temperature, it could be due to restricted airflow, low refrigerant, or dirty filters.
A rise in electricity usage without a change in routine often means your heat pump is working harder than it should, reducing efficiency.
Regular freezing on the outdoor unit may suggest poor airflow, blocked drains, or faulty defrost settings — all of which can be resolved during a service.
Rooms that feel too cold or fluctuate throughout the day could mean your system is struggling to regulate temperature properly.
