Heat pump maintenance: is it necessary and how often?

A heat pump is reliable, but maintenance keeps efficiency and warranty levels up. We explain what is involved.

A heat pump lasts a long time, but like any installation, it benefits from periodic attention. Proper maintenance keeps your efficiency, lifespan and warranty at the right level.

In short
  • Maintenance keeps your efficiency high
  • Often a condition for the warranty
  • Filters, pressure and refrigerant are checked
  • Once every 1–2 years is standard

What do we check?

During maintenance, we check, among other things, the operating pressure, filters, the refrigerant and the electrical connection, and we clean where necessary. This ensures your heat pump continues to work efficiently and reliably.

How often is it needed?

For most heat pumps, a check is once every one to two years standard. Manufacturers often set this as a condition for the warranty. With a maintenance contract, we schedule it automatically.

Worry-free with a contract

Don't want to think about anything? A maintenance contract takes care of the service, gives priority in case of malfunctions and maintains your warranty.

Frequently asked questions

Can I perform maintenance myself?

You can keep filters clean yourself to some extent; work on refrigerant and the technical side must be done by a certified engineer. We take it completely off your hands.

What if I don't do maintenance?

Then efficiency drops, the risk of malfunction increases and your warranty may be voided. Periodic maintenance often pays for itself.
