What factors affect the cost of your heat pump install?
Every heat pump installation has its own unique challenges which affect the cost of the job. The most impactful cost factors for a heat pump installation include:
• System efficiency: Efficiency is an important measurement for heat pumps because it directly impacts a home’s energy bills. More efficient systems cost less to run, but cost more up front to purchase. Your True Home project manager will show you a variety of systems with different efficiency ratings, and let you decide which is best for you and your home.
• System size: Heat pump models vary in size. As size increases, so does the cost of the system. While many companies will just look at your existing heat pump size to determine what you need, True Home looks at additional factors, such as home layout, door- and window-count, insulation type and other factors, to make sure you have the perfect size heat pump for your home.
• Bells and whistles: The latest heat pumps out there have a variety of features which increase comfort, convenience and energy savings. So if you’re looking for a solar-ready, dual-fuel enabled heat pump with silent running capabilities, a variable capacity motor and smart thermostat controls, you just let us know!

No matter who you speak with at JefCo, the result is the same: a successful heat pump repair you won’t soon forget.
What factors affect the cost of your heat pump repair?
Every heat pump repair has its own unique challenges which affect the cost of the job. The most impactful cost factors for a heat pump repair include:
• Part repairs & replacements: Your normal heat pump is comprised of an indoor air handler and outdoor unit. Most of the time the problem is with one or the other, but there’s always the possibility that both are causing issues. Regardless of the cause, a True Home technician will always ask if you’d like to see the damage for yourself, and if possible, offer more than one solution to fix the problem.
• The age of the heat pump: Heat pumps beyond ten years old tend to require more frequent repairs. Oftentimes, those repairs are also more expensive. Critical parts like a compressor or reversing valve are more likely to break and are no longer protected by the manufacturer’s warranty.
• Your heat pump’s warranty status: Replacement parts and labor are covered under separate warranties. Parts warranties tend to last 10 years, while labor warranties in the Orange County area will last anywhere from 1 to 5 years. At True Home, we offer 10-year warranties on parts and labor on most systems, which can save you hundreds of dollars in repairs later on down the line.
Want an accurate estimate? We can help.
A JefCo professional can perform a diagnostic of your heat pump for just $90. We’ll waive the cost of the diagnostic when you choose to repair with us. Best of all, we’ll suggest more than one repair option if possible, to help you find the best possible solution for your home and budget.
Repair Vs Replace
Is your heat pump more than 10 years old?
The decade mark is an important milestone for your heat pump. Beyond the 10-year mark, the cost of keeping that system running smoothly and efficiently becomes more and more expensive. Eventually, you’ll be paying more to repair your existing heat pump than you would by replacing it.
You should consider talking to True Home about a replacement system if:
• Your heat pump’s parts warranty has expired
• The heat pump needs multiple repairs a year
• The system is no longer able to heat or cool the home
• Your energy bills continue to rise year after year
Compare repair vs. replacement pricing:
REPAIR: $150-$800+
INSTALL: Starting at $5,000

Heat Pump Repair/Service Process
Your heat pump repair works like this:
1. We set a date for your repair
Scheduling an appointment with True Home is easy. Simply give us a call and we’ll have an appointment time and date set in minutes. If you have an emergency after hours and need repairs on your heat pump fast, you can call us and we will send an on-call technician to your home to complete the repairs.
2. We ask questions to give you a better experience
Nothing matters more to us than giving you a great repair experience. To ensure that happens, your tech will ask a few service-related questions to get a better idea of your preferences. We may ask about the best way to access your yard or a specific room, how best to reach out to you during the repair or whether you’d like to see any damaged parts we find.
3. We ask you how to proceed, then get to work
We don’t proceed with a repair until we’ve informed you of the issue and provided an unbiased professional opinion on the best way to proceed. Nothing is left unsaid during this process. We want to help you make the most informed decision possible, so you can get the heat pump repair that’s right for you. Once you’re happy with the direction of the repair, we’ll get right to work.
4. We send you a follow-up survey
We want to make sure your experience with JefCo was a great one. That’s why we send you a survey immediately after the technician has left your home. Your honesty is always appreciated, and it gives us a chance to quickly correct any action that wasn’t up to your standards.

Why Is Regular Ductless AC Cleaning Important?
Over time and with repeated use, ductless AC systems can accumulate significant amounts of dust and grime. This isn’t just unsanitary; it also affects the operation and performance of your system. If mold and mildew begin to grow in the drain pan (a fairly common occurrence), it can lead to clogs and unpleasant odors. A dirty, clogged air filter will prevent your ductless mini-system from effectively cooling or heating your home.
With our ductless AC cleaning services, you’ll benefit from:
• Thorough, professional maintenance and system tune-up
• Better air conditioner performance
• Quieter system operation
• Improved energy efficiency
• Reduced utility bills

Heat Pump Maintenance Tips
• Set your thermostat at one temperature. Constant adjusting can cause higher utility costs, especially in the Winter.
• If using your thermostat as a setback type, limit the setbacks to twice a day such as when you are at work and when you are sleeping.
• Only setback the thermostat 6% of desired temperature (approximately five degrees).
• During the heating season, try not to set the thermostat below 65 degrees.
• In the cooling mode, try not to set the thermostat below 70 degrees. Besides higher utility costs, this can cause the indoor coil to freeze and cause condensation in the house.
• Make it a habit to look at the outdoor heat pump during the winter months for signs of excessive ice or snow build-up on or around the heat pump. Especially after bad weather.
• If the unit is covered in ice or snow, it must be removed in order to work properly. Turn the thermostat to Emergency heat or the off position and remove the snow and ice. You can pour warm water over the unit to melt the snow and ice. Even cold water from a hose will help, but do not use hot water.
• Do not use any sharp objects to pick or knock the ice off the coils of the heat pump. This could cause severe damage and personal injury.
• Once the unit is clear of snow and ice turn the thermostat back to normal heating. If the unit ices up again, call for service.
• Do not let the outdoor unit sit underneath a leaking gutter. In the winter months, water will drip on the top of the unit and freeze solid. This will restrict the air flow and cause the whole unit to freeze-up.
• Heat Pumps should be elevated 4 to 8 inches above ground level to keep coils clear of snow and ice and to allow for proper drainage. Contact our Service Department if you would like your unit raised.
