A clear, step-by-step approach to every heat pump repair project we take on.
Our Newnan technician evaluates your heat pump by running it through a complete heating cycle and cooling cycle. We verify reversing valve solenoid operation, check defrost board timing, and measure output temperatures to determine if the system is switching modes correctly.
We connect manifold gauges to check suction and discharge pressures, calculate superheat and subcooling, and compare readings to the manufacturer charge chart. Incorrect pressures reveal leaks, restrictions, or compressor issues.
KIC Refrigeration repairs your Newnan, GA heat pump with precision. For sealed-system work, we recover refrigerant with a certified recovery machine, braze with nitrogen flowing to prevent scale, pressure test with dry nitrogen to 300 PSI, evacuate to below 500 microns, and weigh in the exact factory charge.
Our Newnan crew verifies the repair by running the system in both modes. We confirm superheat and subcooling are within 2 degrees of target, the defrost cycle initiates and terminates properly, and the temperature split across the air handler is 15 to 20 degrees in cooling and 20 to 30 degrees in heating.
Common questions about heat pump repair costs, timelines, and what to expect.
Heat pump repair in Newnan typically ranges from $150 to $600 for common component failures like run capacitors, contactors, defrost timers, and condenser fan motors. Reversing valve replacement is a more involved job that runs $800 to $2,000 including refrigerant recovery and recharge. Compressor replacement costs $1,500 to $3,000 depending on the unit tonnage, refrigerant type — whether R-410A or older R-22 — and whether a hard-start kit is needed. KIC Refrigeration provides a detailed written estimate with parts and labor itemized before any work begins at your Newnan property, so you know exactly what the repair will cost.
The general rule is to repair if the system is under 10 years old and the repair costs less than 50 percent of a replacement. Heat pumps over 12 to 15 years old — especially units still running on R-22 refrigerant — are often better replaced with a new R-410A system that offers higher SEER2 and HSPF2 efficiency ratings and lower operating costs. A new variable-speed heat pump can reduce your Newnan energy bills by 30 to 40 percent compared to an aging single-stage unit. KIC Refrigeration gives honest repair-versus-replace advice based on your specific equipment age, condition, and repair history rather than pushing unnecessary replacements.
Heat pump icing is caused by conditions that prevent the defrost cycle from working correctly. The most common culprits are low refrigerant charge from a slow leak, a dirty or blocked outdoor coil that restricts airflow, a failed defrost control board or timer that does not initiate the defrost sequence, a stuck defrost relay, or a malfunctioning outdoor fan motor. In normal operation, the defrost cycle activates every 30 to 90 minutes during cold weather, reversing the system briefly to melt accumulated frost. When any component in this chain fails, ice builds up until the unit shuts down on high-pressure safety. KIC Refrigeration tests the complete defrost circuit and refrigerant charge at your Newnan, GA home to identify and fix the root cause.
