What Your Neighbors Are Saying About Us

Replaced the old with the new. I got a fantastic price on the new heat pump system. The installation went really smoothly, and it is working great. I like this company.

We’ve been clients of Ellis for 20+ years at our home and office. Yesterday we woke to no heat, of course with the coldest temps of the year just 2 days away, we called Ellis.

Ellis air installed an infinity heat pump system at our home 15 years ago. Best thing we have ever done. It has preformed beautifully over the years and is still going strong thanks to Ellis Air.

Jesse came for my semi annual heating checkup. He was prompt, calling ahead to say he was on his way. He was very thorough and explained everything he did.

I highly recommend Ellis Air & Heat. Larry Hatley service Technician came out and checked the unit out. Larry is one of the most pleasant, delightful person to deal with.

How to Tell Your Heat Pump Needs Repair

Heat pumps often show warning signs before they fail completely. Catching these early can save you from a full breakdown, especially during the hottest and coldest stretches of the year in Dallas. Watch for these signs that something may be off with your system.

Your home is not reaching the temperature you set on the thermostat, even after extended run times.
The heat pump is running constantly without ever shutting off.
You are hearing unusual sounds such as grinding, rattling, or squealing coming from the unit.
Ice has formed on the outdoor unit outside of normal defrost cycles.
Your energy bills have gone up without a clear explanation.
The system is blowing air that is room temperature rather than warm or cool air.
You notice a burning smell or detect any odors coming through your vents.

If any of these sound familiar, it is worth having a technician take a look before the problem gets worse.

Common Heat Pump Issues We Diagnose

Heat pumps are complex systems that handle both heating and cooling, which means there are several components that can wear down or fail over time. Dallas humidity and temperature swings add extra stress to outdoor equipment throughout the year. Some of the most common problems we see include refrigerant leaks that reduce efficiency and put strain on the compressor, faulty reversing valves that prevent the system from switching between heating and cooling modes, failing capacitors or contactors in the outdoor unit, clogged or dirty coils that restrict airflow and cause the system to work harder than it should, thermostat or electrical issues that cause communication errors between components, and compressor problems that require careful diagnosis to determine whether repair or replacement is the right path forward.
