Why It’s Important To Replace Your Heat Pump Every 10 Years
On average, most heat pumps perform at peak efficiency for 10 years. Beyond that, their efficiency tends to decrease, leading to increased energy bills. Reduced comfort levels may follow as parts age and wear becomes more prevalent. Repairs are needed more often, adding even more cost.
Know the Difference Between Repair & Replacement
Heat pumps are built to last and are used extensively year-round. When they malfunction, a repair may be all that’s needed. Keep an eye out for these signs that it may be time to replace your heat pump:
- The unit is 10 years or older.
- Costs for repairing the unit approach half the cost of replacing it.
- You’re noticing significantly higher fuel bills.
Common heat pump repair issues include:
- Clogged or dirty filters
- Malfunctioning thermostat
- A new unit with one bad component
For whatever heat pump issues you may have, call the pros at Green Air Care. We’ll help identify the cause and work with you to determine whether only repairs are needed or if replacement is a better choice.
Tax Credits & Incentives for Heat Pump Replacement in the Chicago Area
In Illinois, replacing a heat pump may qualify you for multiple incentives or tax credits, including:

Importance of Hiring a Professional
For some things, a do-it-yourself attitude can save you money. That’s not the case when it comes to replacing your heat pump. Few DIYers have the comprehensive knowledge and experience needed to install a heat pump for optimal performance, safety, and code compliance.
In many such cases, outcomes have included damage to the heat pump itself, hazardous wiring problems, and the need for expensive professional follow-up visits. Qualified professionals like those at Green Air Care are highly skilled and well-trained in heat pump installation.
