Get answers to common questions about mini-split heat pump cleaning and maintenance. Our goal is to help you understand the importance of regular cleaning and what to expect from our professional service.
How often should I have my mini-split heat pump cleaned?
For optimal performance and air quality, we recommend professional cleaning of your mini-split system every 12-18 months, depending on environmental factors like dust levels, pet ownership, and system usage patterns. More frequent cleaning may be necessary for systems in high-pollution areas or homes with multiple pets.
What are the signs that my mini-split needs cleaning?
Your system likely needs cleaning if you notice reduced airflow, unusual odors when the unit is running, increased energy bills, inconsistent heating or cooling performance, or visible mold and dust accumulation on the unit’s exterior. These symptoms indicate that your system isn’t operating at peak efficiency and could benefit from our professional cleaning service.
How long does a professional heat pump cleaning take?
A typical cleaning service takes between 1-2 hours per unit, though this can vary depending on the unit’s condition and accessibility. We take the time needed to thoroughly clean all components and test the system’s performance, ensuring you get maximum value from our service.
