From initial contact to final verification — here is how we handle heat pump repair.
KIC Refrigeration begins every heat pump repair in Deerfield, MA with a dual-mode performance test. We measure supply air temperatures in heat and cool, verify the reversing valve energizes and de-energizes properly, and test the defrost control board to confirm it initiates defrost cycles at the correct intervals.
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.
Our Deerfield technician installs the replacement part with proper brazing techniques for sealed-system components, recovers refrigerant before opening the circuit, pulls a 500-micron vacuum on reassembly, and recharges to the manufacturer-specified weight.
KIC Refrigeration does not consider your Deerfield, MA heat pump repair complete until every performance metric checks out. We verify pressures, temperatures, amperage draws, defrost timing, reversing valve switching, and thermostat communication before signing off on the work.
