If you have a heat pump, the approaching weather has the potential to cause issues for your system. Freezing rain, mix, and sleet can all accumulate on your outdoor unit, sometimes overwhelming the defrost system, freezing the fan blade to the shroud, and other unexpected problems. Systems that have total coverage emergency heat can be set until the storm passes, but many systems out there have partial emergency heat coverage. This means when outdoor temperatures are below design temperature (generally 17-19F here in Surry) emergency heat may not hold 72F in your house. If you keep your heat pump online throughout the storm, keep an eye on the outdoor unit. If it starts to become a giant block of ice, you should turn it off until the precipitation ends and give us a call. The lows expected over the coming week are going to get close to 10F, so nothing is going to thaw on its own. It’s always a good idea to have a plan B such as space heaters lined up. Stay safe and warm folks.

Hello Surry! I wanted to take a moment and talk about our services, and our approach to them. We have to navigate a lot of scheduling challenges every day, so it’s good to know how that works. Our top priority is outages. If you’ve ever lost your heat or air conditioning during extreme weather, or lose hot water, or if you own a business that depends on refrigeration and it breaks, then you know it becomes a crisis fast. We live in this crisis world every day and we give every available effort to restore service when it is lost. Our second priority is critical system replacement. If a system goes down and is deemed unfixable or a bad investment to repair, this then becomes a similar crisis. This work dominates our schedule.

We have performed some complete duct system replacements and total system replacements (including duct system installations) since doing business here. As an important update, we will not be offering any total duct system replacements or installations until further notice. We regret any inconveniences this may cause, but at this time trying to blend this work into the other work while delivering the quality that we demand is untenable for our small crew.

We remain very grateful for everyone’s support. Thank you!

Attention heat pump owners: Due to the weather, we are fielding calls for heavily frosted or iced heat pump outdoor units today. Is your outdoor unit starting to look like a snowball or an ice sculpture?

Your heat pump normally develops frost as it runs in the heating mode below 50F outdoor temperature, and it has an automatic defrost feature that thaws it periodically. When the outdoor temperature is at or slightly above freezing, AND there is borderline frozen precipitation (snow or sleet), the “perfect storm” conditions are present to freeze up any heat pump depending on factors such as how long run-cycles are, which way the wind is blowing, etc. These conditions can develop frost and ice faster than the defrost system can remove it. Freezing rain and sleet can freeze the fan blade to the shroud in some cases. In a nutshell, your heat pump will not heat if it is frozen, and running when frozen can damage your heat pump.

If your indoor temperature starts dropping today, take a look at your outdoor unit to see if it is frozen. If it is, go to your thermostat and switch the system setting to ‘emergency heat’. This will turn off the outdoor unit and rely solely on backup resistance heat.

Once the borderline frozen/wet weather passes and your outdoor unit thaws, change the system setting back to the normal ‘heat’ setting.

This scenario isn’t necessarily a reason for a service call, but if your outdoor unit freezes during normal operation, then you may have an issue requiring service.

Stay warm!

Thanks to everyone for their support as we get back on track after losing the primary Airheadz service van to an unfortunate auto accident. No one was seriously injured and while we are still working to get back to 100% and a little behind, we are still handling calls. Huge thanks to Knecht Trucking for loaning us a vehicle and others that have kindly offered vehicles and support. We hope to be back at full speed within a couple weeks.

Local work - We handle many specialty applications. Here we replaced an oil-fired boiler with a propane boiler, integrated with an existing outdoor wood boiler. We added plate heat exchangers to keep the water systems separate.
