Heat Pump Maintenance in Asheville, NC
Because heat pumps run year-round, they need maintenance twice a year. Ledbetter Temperature Control's biannual tune-ups keep your system efficient, reliable, and ready for every season in Asheville.
Why Heat Pumps Need Twice-Yearly Maintenance
Unlike a furnace or AC that runs one season, a heat pump works all year — heating in winter, cooling in summer. That means twice the wear, so we recommend maintenance in spring (before cooling) and fall (before heating). Regular service keeps efficiency high and catches wear before it becomes a breakdown.

Frequently Asked Questions
Twice a year — once before cooling season and once before heating season. Because heat pumps run year-round, biannual maintenance is more important than for single-season systems.
