They are good at their job and always nice, but I just got a sick heater. Have to call them more than I'd like
We had Shayne come out to do our lighting in our living room, kitchen and dining room. He was an awesome one man show. I’m so beyond amazed at the outcome. And will be calling them to do all future work. I highly recommend Minuteman!! Sincerely an extremely happy customer.
This company was fantastic to work with from start to finish. I first had Ted come over to look at the work I needed done. He was very knowledgeable and professional! Matthew came over to complete four various electrical projects around the house. He added an RV outlet, replaced the doorbell, changed out light switches, and added a new outlet in my basement. He even kindly helped with an additional outlet problem on the spot that I forgot to initially mention. Each area he went to in my home was greatly cared for and he left it spotless. I asked for two business cards to tape to my breaker boxes. If I ever need help in the future, I will happily have them back! Thank you so much Ted and Matthew!
The young lady I talked to this morning was very helpful and took care of me quickly. Jordan, who came today was very kind and fixed this right away very pleased and happy with a service and will use you again. I hope I don’t need to, but now I know where to go.i thought the was a bit much he was only there 15 mins
The whole crew at MinuteMan has been great to work with. Everyone from estimating, install, service calls and billing. I've had them do an upgrade to a heat pump and new furnace as well as a propane heater and 50 amp plugs in the garage. I'm looking forward to having them do work for me in the future.
Excellent service, replied to texts on a weekend night with advice and a few things to try before coming out and fixing the issue! Travis indicated that it could be symptomatic of a failing heat exchanger, which was correct. We ended up having them come and replace the furnace 6mo later, working great! Price was as quoted and competitive with the others.
Shayne did a ton of work on our existing home. Things that needed fixed for years and splitting off a breaker box for a backup generator. Very happy with his work and was a great person to chat with as well! Minuteman will definitely be our first call for any other electrical needs.
Such an incredible company! Responded right away and got us scheduled same day! Thank you for keeping us warm all winter.
Prompt and respectful! They keep you well informed and show up when they say they will. Great experience!
Jordan did an awesome job! Fixed it right up! Always a pleasure to deal with, very fair prices and professional service!
Great service! Super responsive. Will definitely be using them on future projects.
Jordan, Jason and Drace added a humidifier to my furnace in about 2 hours. Settling in for a nice, comfortable winter. Solid work guys, thank you!
I would recommend Minuteman without hesitation. Easy to work with, stand by their products and very knowledgeable.
Minuteman is the only HVAC service I call. They are always trustworthy, great price, and come out quickly. My furnace went out the day before Thanksgiving Eve and they answered my call requeat immediately and had my furnace fixed that day. I was so grateful and will not call anybody else for any future repairs. They are awesome!
Our tech Jordan was absolutely amazing. He was professional and well spoken. He was able to diagnose our furnace very quickly and had it fixed with in 20 minutes. We are very grateful to have heat again. I would recommend them and Jordan for all your HVAC needs.
We had our furnace replaced. They had reasonable price, showed up when they said they would, did a good job.
We had a full HVAC system replacement. Jason and the guys were great. We were trying to integrate the system with a 55 year old venting system that ended up causing problems and failing inspection, but the team solved the problem with a great solution. In all the team was great to work with
Called them up and they were very prompt and personable. The estimate was reasonable and they answered all of my questions. I don’t usually leave reviews, but these guys are where it’s at. Highly recommend using them. I tried another company prior and they were not as easy to work with.
This is best I've worked with. Affordable, knowledgeable, friendly and professional! I will definitely call on them again. Thank you guys.
Minuteman was great to work with. our furnace went out in the cooler time of year, and they were able to fit us in promptly. They always showed up on time, communicated very well, super friendly staff. Would highly recommend.
Minuteman installed a new vent for an overhead heater that was a difficult situation when needed, professionally and at a reasonable cost. They have my recommendation.
These guys are quick and professional at all times. I would definitely recommend them for any of your HVAC needs.
Shayne was quick and efficient installing our Tesla charger. Would use them again for future electrical needs.
I’ve been on the hunt for a good HVAC company that is quick on their service calls and reasonably priced - very happy with their tech Jordan who was thorough and very friendly - I will be using you again in the future for any of my HVAC needs!
Jordan was awesome. He gave our furnace an annual check up, tuned up what needed tuned and left us ready for winter. Very happy I called Minute Man… excellent service and work.
After an inspection on our home during the selling process, we needed a quick maintenance job on our furnace. They were able to fit us into their schedule to accommodate our deadline. Travis was the technician that came out and he was very friendly and professional. I appreciated that he was timely and called to let me know he was headed my way. Job was completed and I was charged a fair and reasonable price. Very pleased with Minuteman and would recommend to anyone.
Jordan did a great job repairing my furnace. Left two space heaters while waiting for the control board to arrive, when the part arrived he had it installed and had the furnace up and running in 20 minutes. Will use minuteman services for all future repairs.
I had a very good experience. The price was fair and the service was professional.
Jordan was amazing. He came and diagnosed our heating system and was very thorough. He had great communication and was able to get a good part and have it fixed quickly. The price was very fair and the work was great quality. He answered all of my questions and made sure to test that each component was working as should after the initial fix. I would recommend them to anyone. They do work for us at my place of employment as well and have always provided great service for the best price.
Being a realtor, I deal with a lot of companies, I do not hesitate to recommend MinuteMan to my clients. They are reliable, do great work, and really do respond in a ‘Minute’ !!! 😊
Jordan was phenomenal! He went above and beyond to make sure that everything on my ancient furnace was taken care of and prepped for winter. If I could give more than five stars, I would. Minuteman is amazing!
These guys were great. Showed up on time, work was flawless, and great customer service from Shayne Baldwin.
Jordan and the office was great to work. Jordan was very knowledgeable in his work.
Very conscientious, friendly and appeared knowledgeable. Appreciated the helpful communications with Travis!
Minuteman services were awesome to work with, Fair and Honest. Upfront about charges and quick response. Jordan was professional and knowledgeable. Thank you!!! Will definitely be using them for our home needs here on out.
Matt came to change the lights timer and when he finished he took the time to clean up really good after all the insulation fell from the ceiling
Minute Man was quick to come out, gave a free estimate and fixed our fire place without any hassles. From start to finish was a great experience. Will call again!
Jordan at Minuteman Services was fantastic! He came out quickly to fix my mom’s furnace and had it running again in no time. He took the time to explain everything clearly so we knew exactly what was going on and what to expect. Super professional, friendly, and efficient — couldn’t ask for better service. Highly recommend!
We had issues with one of the lights in our office building. I googled places to repair them, and was impressed with the reviews this company had. They were scheduled to come give us a quote on a Wednesday and to our surprise the light was fixed before they were scheduled to come take a look. The repair was done quickly and I was impressed with everyone in the company. So happy with the repair that was Made!
My furnace is getting old and had some issues this year. Minuteman has done maintenance for me since we bought our home. Contacted Jarrod and he sent Jordan out to check things out. They said they could fix it if they needed to, and would recommend to repair it over a replacement, but my preference was just fix it once and for all and get a new one. They gave me a quote including about $6,000 in optional upgrades. After speaking to them, they helped me decide that only a small upgrade of $800 was the best choice for me and my family and my home. I am willing to pay top dollar for the best system available, but they said that a lower price system was actually better for me in my situation. These guys are honest to a fault and absolutely the best at what they do.
I want to give a HUGE SHOUTOUT to Minuteman Services LLC - While my mother was getting her yearly checkup/service on her furnace, she mentioned an issue she was having with her main power connection to her house to the service tech Jordan. Jordan immediately recognized the danger as last winter's ice had completely disconnected ground and also left the main power dangling by a thread. Minuteman Services LLC not only recognized the issue, but got it taken care of both quickly (and correctly) making my Mom's house safe again - and at an ABSOLUTELLY unbeatable price. The honesty, empathy and compassion shown by this company is one that is SECOND to NONE!! I want to personally thank them for the superior job well done!! I highly recommend Minuteman Services LLC for all your HVAC and Electrical service needs!! Thank you again!!
Great to work with and great on follow-up! I had limited time when I did the one-liner above and am now coming back to add more detail. Minuteman did a full HVAC replacement at our home. They did not suggest the full replacement, but I requested it due to the age of our system and the upgrades I wanted. The new system has more functionality with better efficiency and includes a humidifier and an electronic filter. The installers were very professional and respectful in our home. And Travis oversaw the entire process from start to finish including a follow-up software upgrade on our new thermostat. We could not be happier with our new system.
Excellent service!!! Jordan did an amazing job troubleshooting and repairing my furnace. He was timely, professional, and courteous. All of my questions were answered and he took the time to listen to and address all concerns. Very pleased.
Fast response, EXCELLENT service and very affordable pricing 100% recommend!
Jordan came and got our furnace up and running in no time! Professional and knowledgeable. We just started using these guys at the property management company I work for too. Definitely recommend!
Such an awesome team! The promise of great service is easy to get- actually achieving great service - hard to come by these days. FOUND IT! We will be toasty warm this winter THANKS MINUTE MAN TEAM!
Amazing customer service, great to work with! No hidden fees! And very very helpful! Thank you for installing my range hood and gas line!! 🥰🥰🥰
Excellent experience with Minuteman! So happy with my new system. Ultimate professionals. Don’t hesitate!
Very prompt service, extremely knowledgeable staff and courteous interaction.
The employees showed up earlier than scheduled and got right to work. Everything is working wonderfully and they explained everything so I wasn't lost on using new equipment. Definitely would use again. Top recommendations for them. Thanks to all
These guys are great! They respond quickly and are professional. Travis and Jordan were very friendly and informative helping us fix both a blocked drain for the hvac and a gas leak. I would definitely recommend them!
The full experience was exceptional from the beginning starting with them coming out to do an inspection on the furnace for us. They were honest with me letting me know that I could get a little more life out of it but that honesty sold me which led us to an install today. I could not be happier and say enough of how wonderful Minute Man Service is to deal with. Thanks to everyone who was involved!
Had furnace serviced, plus Jordan repaired a gas stove in our basement, one that probably hadn't been running for some time. That took a lot of work, as it had a few problems, thus the reason it hadn't been used in quite a while. Jordan kept us informed as to his schedule and what was needed to get everything up and running. Thanks Jordan!
The men showed up on time and were very courteous. Went straight to work and had the problem fixed in 20 minutes. I was very happy with their work.
Jordan was super friendly and efficient! He did great work and explained everything. Would definitely recommend! We are so thankful for Minute Man services to have found a replacement coil for the AC so we didn’t have to buy a whole new unit yet. Trevor came out quickly after we called asking for a second opinion. He was able to find the leak and helped map out the options we had. He was super friendly and very knowledgeable. I never felt pressure with choosing what option we were given to fix the unit. I was also impress with Jasmine in the office.
Jordan, Matt and Trevor, were great. They were courteous and very professional. They completed needed ducting repair and installed a safety switch. We highly recommend MinuteMan for any HVAC service.
Big shout out to Minuteman Service for installing my new HVAC / heat pump. They were very professional, on time, answered all my questions, and best of all did a fantastic job. I would highly recommend them for any of your heating and cooling needs.
Matt and Matt#2 Aaron and Trevor all did awesome job. They are some real "cool" guys
Minute Man Service installed some mini air conditioning and heating units for us in our addition. They were friendly and professional and performed the work quickly. They also made sure they protected our new carpet from getting dirty which I really appreciate. I would totally recommend them!
Very professional and amazing clean installation, Great job guys, I highly recommend Minueman services to all
Jordan was fabulous! Explained what was going on, fixed the problem with a smile and was just very helpful. Strongly recommend Minuteman Services and I hope your lucky to get Jordan (though I'm sure all the workers are equally as great). Today, Matt and Trevor came out and put in a new filter system for me and they were fabulous! Very nice guys and great work done!
Jordan was super easy to deal with! Listened well to my concerns and was super helpful! Great customer service and quick service as well!
These guys are awesome!! I was having an issue after hours on a Friday evening, and couldn't get anyone out til Monday, but we talked on the phone, and I was able to fix my problem with some " coaching" over the phone. I kept my appointment for Monday, and I was more than pleased with their tech!! He is awesome, and now I am on a bi-annual service plan!! thank you Minuteman
Great experience from start to finish, from initial phone call scheduled for Tuesday, received call back with opening end of day Friday. Travis was great, very familiar with our unit, diagnosed and fixed the problem quickly. I highly recommend them!
I had a mini split heating and a/c system installed. Travis, Trenton and Alisa were great! The system was installed, tested and running in just a day and a half. They were neat and careful and answered any questions I had. I would recommend them highly!
Jordan was professional. He was able to get to our AC unit quickly and get it back up and running and we will definitely be using him in the future with our HVAC maintenance and repair needs.
I was able to get a solid hvac system for a great price. They also worked hard and got me scheduled quickly. Jordan made sure everything was perfect on the installation.
Absolutely amazing service. Travis did a great job in fixing our water heater. Went above and beyond. Great communication
If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. Jordan was awesome and had the problem diagnosed and fixed ASAP. we will call them every time for HVAC questions and repairs. Vince Wray
Jordan did an amazing job. I got my gas line in record time, in my opinion, with very little sheet rock disturbance. He cleaned up as appropriate. I now have a fully functioning gas cooktop thanks to Jordan. 👍 Side note, Travis fixed a minor thermostat wiring issue, my bad, during consultation for the gas line, free of charge. Win win for me.
Heat Pump Maintenance in Idaho Falls, ID
Minuteman Services provides heat pump maintenance in Idaho Falls, ID to help homeowners and small businesses keep their systems running at full efficiency. Regular maintenance reduces wear, improves energy efficiency, and helps prevent emergency breakdowns. Our technicians inspect both the indoor and outdoor units, test refrigerant pressure, and clean coils for better heat transfer. We also check fan motors, capacitors, contactors, and control boards to confirm each component is operating correctly. Air filters are inspected and replaced if needed, and thermostat settings are verified for proper operation. Drain lines are flushed to prevent water damage, and the defrost cycle is tested for proper winter function. With routine maintenance, your heat pump performs better, lasts longer, and uses less energy throughout the year.
Each maintenance visit from Minuteman Services includes a complete system performance test. We verify that your heat pump is heating and cooling within manufacturer specifications. If we detect early signs of failure, we explain the issue clearly and recommend the next steps. Routine maintenance also helps protect your warranty and keeps your system compliant with safety codes. Our team keeps detailed records of each visit so you can track service history and system performance over time. Customers who schedule seasonal maintenance avoid surprise issues during extreme weather. With expert service and clear communication, Minuteman Services makes heat pump maintenance simple and effective.
Heat pump maintenance is important for keeping your HVAC system running efficiently in all seasons. These systems provide both heating and cooling, which means they work year-round and require consistent care. Minuteman Services provides heat pump maintenance in Idaho Falls, ID that includes full inspections, safety checks, and system cleaning. Regular service helps prevent breakdowns during extreme weather and reduces your energy bill. We clean indoor and outdoor coils, clear debris from the unit, and make sure airflow is unrestricted. Our technicians check for early signs of wear or component failure and recommend repairs before a breakdown happens. Routine maintenance keeps your heat pump in top condition and avoids costly emergency service calls.
One of the most important parts of heat pump maintenance is checking the refrigerant charge. Low refrigerant levels can reduce system efficiency, cause longer run times, and lead to poor heating or cooling. Our technician uses precise gauges to measure refrigerant pressure and verify that it matches manufacturer specifications. If we detect a leak, we recommend immediate repair to prevent further damage to the system. We also inspect the reversing valve, which controls the switch between heating and cooling modes. If the valve sticks or malfunctions, your system can fail to heat or cool properly. Minuteman Services makes sure all critical components are operating correctly during each maintenance visit. Proper refrigerant levels protect your system and improve performance.
Electrical system testing is also a key part of our heat pump maintenance service. We inspect the capacitor, contactor, control board, and wiring to confirm each component functions safely. Electrical failures can cause short cycling, fan motor problems, or complete system shutdown. We measure voltage and amperage under load and identify weak or failing parts before they cause a breakdown. Our technicians also tighten loose connections and check for heat damage or corrosion inside the unit. These inspections help avoid electrical fires, blown fuses, and costly repairs. Every part of the system is tested and verified during the maintenance process. You get a heat pump that runs safer, smoother, and more reliably.
Airflow and filter maintenance are also included in our heat pump service. We inspect ductwork, supply vents, and air returns to confirm your system is receiving balanced airflow. Clogged filters and dirty coils reduce airflow, which can cause the system to overheat or freeze. Our team checks filter condition and recommends a replacement schedule based on system use and household conditions. We also clean the blower fan and inspect the indoor coil for dirt and debris buildup. Clear airflow ensures your heat pump maintains consistent temperature control and reduces stress on internal parts. Better airflow means lower energy use and improved indoor comfort throughout the year. Minuteman Services keeps every part of your system clean and running efficiently.
Minuteman Services recommends scheduling heat pump maintenance twice a year for the best results. We perform one visit before cooling season and another before heating season to make sure the system is ready for the temperature changes. Seasonal maintenance improves system efficiency, reduces operating costs, and extends the life of your equipment. It also protects your warranty and ensures compliance with building safety codes. We offer flexible scheduling and service plan options for ongoing care. Our licensed technicians provide honest feedback, detailed reports, and high-quality work every visit. With regular maintenance, you avoid breakdowns, improve comfort, and protect your investment. Heat pump maintenance is one of the most cost-effective ways to keep your home running smoothly year-round.

During heat pump maintenance, our technician performs a full inspection and system test to ensure safe, efficient operation. We check refrigerant pressure, clean the indoor and outdoor coils, and test the reversing valve. We also verify the blower motor function, check air filters, and inspect the duct system for airflow restrictions. Electrical components are tested for voltage, resistance, and amperage to confirm proper operation. Thermostat function is checked, and we make sure it communicates with the system as it should. If any safety switches or sensors are out of range, we make the necessary adjustments. Every part of the system is reviewed during the maintenance visit.
Minuteman Services starts each appointment with a checklist based on the manufacturer’s service recommendations. We test the system in both heating and cooling modes to catch any switching or timing issues. If there is debris around the outdoor unit, we remove it to restore airflow and improve system efficiency. We also flush the condensate line to prevent water backups that can lead to damage or mold. Each test result is recorded, and we compare readings to factory specifications. If a part is failing or showing early signs of wear, we let you know and offer a repair plan.
We also clean key components to reduce strain on the system and improve performance. Our goal is to find small issues before they become major problems. With proper maintenance, your heat pump runs better, lasts longer, and provides more consistent comfort. Our technician explains each step clearly and answers any questions you have. We also give tips on filter replacement and other steps you can take between visits. Minuteman Services makes sure your heat pump gets the care it needs. With routine maintenance, you stay comfortable while avoiding surprise breakdowns.
Yes, Minuteman Services provides emergency heat pump service when your system stops working and fast repairs are needed. Heat pumps can fail at the worst times, especially during extreme heat or cold. A system failure can leave your home without heating or cooling when you need it most. Our technician responds quickly with the tools and training to identify the issue and restore safe operation. Emergency service includes full diagnostics, system testing, and on-the-spot repairs when possible. We carry common replacement parts to fix many problems during the same visit. Our goal is to get your heat pump running again with minimal downtime.
When you call for emergency heat pump service, we begin by asking questions about what the system is doing or not doing. This helps our technician arrive prepared to handle the problem. We check for electrical issues, refrigerant loss, and failed components such as the capacitor, thermostat, or control board. Once the issue is identified, we complete repairs using approved materials and test the system under load. After the repair, we check airflow, temperature output, and cycle timing to confirm full system recovery. We also provide clear recommendations if additional service is needed.

Emergency repairs are completed with safety, speed, and full attention to detail. We make sure the heat pump is running safely and efficiently before restoring operation. If replacement parts are required, we explain your options and help you choose the right path forward. Minuteman Services is committed to fast, reliable emergency service with full transparency. You receive honest pricing, expert repair, and a clear explanation of what went wrong. When your heat pump breaks down, we are ready to help restore comfort fast.
Routine maintenance improves heat pump efficiency by cleaning and testing all major system components. Dust, dirt, and debris can block airflow and reduce heat transfer, which forces the system to work harder. During maintenance, Minuteman Services cleans the indoor and outdoor coils to restore full heat exchange. We also inspect and replace dirty air filters, which can restrict airflow and lead to short cycling. Proper refrigerant levels are essential for efficient heating and cooling, so we check pressure and recharge the system if needed. We test electrical parts to make sure everything runs at the correct voltage and amperage. All of this helps reduce energy use and improve overall system performance.
A well-maintained heat pump runs more efficiently and delivers better comfort with fewer cycle starts and stops. Short cycling wastes energy and causes wear on the compressor and fan motors. Our technician checks cycle timing, airflow, and temperature output to verify the system is operating within design limits. We also check the thermostat settings and recalibrate them if needed. These small adjustments help the system run more smoothly and avoid overworking. When the system runs as it should, your energy bill goes down. You also reduce the risk of unexpected breakdowns and early system failure.
Minuteman Services focuses on long-term performance and efficiency with every maintenance visit. We do more than just inspect the system—we fine-tune it for better operation. You benefit from lower energy costs, better comfort, and a longer-lasting heat pump. We also help you understand how your system works and what steps you can take to maintain efficiency between visits. Our team is committed to helping you get the best results from your heat pump. Maintenance is the key to performance, and we are here to make it simple. Trust Minuteman Services to keep your system running at peak efficiency all year.
Skipping heat pump maintenance for even one year can lead to several long-term problems. The system will collect dust, dirt, and debris that reduce airflow and force the unit to work harder. Coils may become clogged, and electrical components can wear out faster due to overheating or poor contact. Refrigerant levels may drop without notice, which can lead to poor temperature control and compressor damage. Air filters will clog, increasing energy use and decreasing air quality in your home. Minor issues that could have been corrected during a routine service may develop into major breakdowns that require expensive repairs. Minuteman Services sees many repair calls that could have been prevented with regular maintenance.
Without service, your system also loses efficiency each year, which increases your energy bills. You may notice uneven heating or cooling, longer run times, and rising monthly costs. If a control board, capacitor, or contactor fails during peak season, it can leave your home without comfort until repairs are made. Skipping maintenance also puts your system at higher risk of early failure. Most manufacturers require annual maintenance to keep warranties valid, so missed visits could also leave you without warranty coverage. Our technician helps you avoid these problems with affordable service plans and seasonal checkups. Routine care protects your equipment and your budget.
Minuteman Services helps homeowners avoid these risks by providing consistent, thorough maintenance. We catch small problems early, clean key parts, and keep your system running like it should. The cost of maintenance is small compared to the cost of major repairs or early system replacement. With regular service, your heat pump lasts longer, works better, and saves you money every month. You do not have to deal with breakdowns and high bills when your system is cared for properly. Let us help you stay on track with simple, reliable service. One visit now can prevent many problems later.
A heat pump may still run even if there are maintenance issues because many problems do not cause total failure right away. The system may still turn on and move air, but the performance will drop over time. You may not notice a refrigerant leak, a clogged coil, or an electrical issue until it causes a larger failure. Some components, like a capacitor or reversing valve, can function poorly for months before causing a full breakdown. When this happens, the system becomes less efficient and more expensive to operate. It also places more wear on the compressor and fan motors, which are costly to replace. Minuteman Services inspects these components before they fail to keep your system protected.
Our technician checks every performance metric during maintenance to detect issues you may not notice. We test airflow, temperature output, cycle length, and voltage under load to verify each component is working correctly. If we find signs of failure, we let you know right away and explain the repair options. Running a system with problems does not just increase energy use, it increases the risk of a complete failure. Delaying service can cause more damage and lead to higher repair costs in the future. Our maintenance appointments are designed to prevent these issues before they affect your comfort. We help you stay ahead of breakdowns with accurate testing and professional care.
Minuteman Services keeps your heat pump in good condition by finding hidden problems early. Systems can run with performance issues for a while, but the damage builds over time. We focus on solving problems before they cause more serious failures. Your comfort, energy bill, and equipment lifespan all depend on proactive service. Let our team help you protect your system with detailed inspections and honest feedback. We do not wait for failure to act—we stop it before it starts. Routine maintenance is the key to a heat pump that works the way it should.
A heat pump tune-up includes a complete inspection, cleaning, and performance check of the entire system. Minuteman Services checks refrigerant levels, tests pressure, and verifies that the reversing valve operates correctly. We inspect and tighten all electrical connections, test the capacitor and contactor, and check thermostat calibration. The indoor and outdoor coils are cleaned to improve efficiency and prevent system strain. We inspect and flush the drain line, clean the blower motor, and make sure all safety switches are functional. Our technician also replaces the air filter if needed and checks that airflow is balanced across the system. Every part is tested and recorded to confirm safe, efficient performance.
We also run the system in both heating and cooling modes to test operation under load. Cycle timing is checked to verify that the unit is not short cycling or running too long. Voltage and amperage readings are taken to ensure all components are drawing proper power. If we detect parts that are weak, failing, or out of spec, we recommend replacement before a failure occurs. A full report is provided with each tune-up so you can see what was done and what was found. These visits help your heat pump operate at its highest efficiency. Regular tune-ups reduce energy use and prevent sudden breakdowns.
Minuteman Services performs every tune-up with attention to detail and care for your equipment. We use a checklist based on manufacturer recommendations and field experience. Every part of the service is designed to help your heat pump last longer and run better. With a seasonal tune-up, your system is ready to handle extreme temperatures without fail. We help you keep comfort consistent, costs low, and breakdowns rare. Let us take care of your heat pump with professional service you can trust. Schedule your tune-up today and see the difference expert maintenance makes.
Yes, routine maintenance is one of the most important factors in extending the life of a heat pump. Systems that are not serviced regularly experience more wear, run longer, and develop problems that lead to early failure. By cleaning coils, replacing filters, testing electrical parts, and checking refrigerant levels, Minuteman Services helps reduce stress on every part of the system. Less stress means fewer breakdowns, lower repair costs, and longer overall service life. Most heat pumps last 10 to 15 years, but well-maintained systems can often exceed that range. Small problems caught early prevent larger issues that could shorten the life of your equipment. Maintenance protects both performance and durability.
Our technician checks every major system function to verify that your heat pump is operating within the correct range. We test start-up and shutdown cycles, listen for noise from the compressor or fan, and check airflow across all registers. When components are worn or dirty, they make the system work harder, which increases the risk of part failure. Clean coils and correct refrigerant pressure improve heat transfer, which reduces cycle time and electrical demand. This also helps the system recover more quickly in extreme weather. By reducing workload and improving balance, the system runs more efficiently and lasts longer. We help you avoid early replacement by keeping every part in good shape.
