How often should I have my heat pump serviced?

You should have your heat pump serviced at least once a year. If you use your heat pump for heating and cooling, you should service it twice annually, in the fall and the spring.

What is the life span of a heat pump?

The average life span of a heat pump is 10-15 years. Because heat pumps run year-round to heat and cool your home, they don’t always last as long as a typical heating or cooling system. However, you can extend the life span by ensuring that your unit is routinely maintained by an HVAC professional.

Great company that stands behind their work.
They put in a new furnace & AC 13 years ago for us and they come out each summer and fall to do a maintenance check. They are always on time, very courteous and knowledgeable. Very reasonably on the cost. Great company that stands behind their work.

We will certainly continue having Sharp Long monitor and service our new system!
We first had Sharp-Long replace our furnace and air conditioning system in our Lee’s Summit, MO house back 2010. We had a maintenance contract with them since then. We bought and moved to another house in Lone Jack, MO and continued our maintenance contract with S-L. At the last two service calls, the service tech noticed slightly elevated CO2 levels (not enough to be dangerous, yet) and that a fan motor was drawing too many amps (meaning it was going to fail). A member of their sales team came out and presented three different proposals. We opted for the middle one. Four days later an installation team came out and replaced the entire heating and air conditioning system in one day. The techs were very friendly and professional and went about their work very efficiently. They were very protective of our walls, floors and carpeting. We were very pleased with the work they did and the clean-up afterwards was better than expected. We will certainly continue having Sharp Long monitor and service our new system. Thanks guys!
