Fast, Reliable Heat Pump Repair — Year-Round Comfort, Restored
When your heat pump struggles, cycles incorrectly, or stops heating or cooling altogether, Dave’s Heating & Air is ready to help with prompt, precise repairs that get your home comfortable again.
When Your Heat Pump Goes Down, You Feel It Fast
Heat pumps carry more responsibility than standard HVAC systems — they’re your heater and your air conditioner. That means when something goes wrong, it affects comfort in every season.
Whether your heat pump is blowing cold air in winter, failing to cool in summer, freezing over, or running nonstop, you need more than a quick reset. You need a technician who understands how these systems operate in both modes in our Northern Virginia climate and how to pinpoint the root problem — not just the symptom.
That’s exactly what we do at Dave’s.
Our Repair Approach: Fix the Cause, Not Just the Component
Before we ever reach for a replacement part, we take the time to understand why your heat pump isn’t performing correctly. Heat pumps are complex systems with electrical, refrigerant, airflow, and control components that all interact — and a surface-level fix can miss the real issue.
Here’s how a typical repair visit in Reston goes:
Full System Diagnostic — including pressures, electrical checks, reversing valve performance, airflow, and thermostat communication
Clear Explanation — we review the findings with you in plain English
Upfront Pricing — no surprises, no guesswork
Lasting Repair Work — completed cleanly and safely
Performance Verification — ensuring your heat pump heats, cools, and defrosts exactly as it should
This approach prevents repeat breakdowns and helps extend your system’s lifespan.
Specialized Repairs for All Heat Pump Types
Different systems require different knowledge. Our technicians are trained to repair:
Traditional split-system heat pumps
High-efficiency inverter/variable-speed systems
Ducted and ductless heat pump setups
Dual-fuel systems (heat pump + gas backup)
No matter the brand or model — Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Goodman, Mitsubishi, Rheem, Bryant — we’ve got you covered.
When Repair Isn’t the Best Option
We never push replacements, but we’re honest when a repair isn’t cost-effective.
We may recommend replacement when:
The system is older and facing multiple component failures
The compressor is failing or out of warranty
A repair would exceed the long-term value of the system
The unit is oversized, undersized, or inefficient for your home
If replacement makes more sense, we’ll walk you through your options clearly — without pressure.
