How Much Does Heat Pump Repair Cost?

Most calls land between $150 and $800. Heat pumps run year-round, so small faults show up sooner — and cost less caught early.

The short answer

$150–$800

Common electrical and control repairs sit at the low end; reversing valves and refrigerant work reach higher. Compressors get an honest repair-vs-replace conversation first.

What moves the price

1

Which part failed

A defrost sensor and a reversing valve are hundreds of dollars apart. Diagnosis first — then an exact price you approve.

2

Refrigerant involvement

Anything touching the sealed system (leaks, valves, compressors) means recovery, vacuum and recharge — skilled hours, honest money.

3

Run hours

A heat pump works summer and winter both. A 10-year heat pump has the run time of a 20-year AC — age matters more here.

4

The fault behind the fault

Iced coils and dead compressors are often symptoms — of airflow or charge problems. We fix causes, or the failure comes back.

Quick answers

My heat pump is steaming — is that a repair?

Usually not — steam clouds during winter defrost are normal operation. Ice that never clears is the repair. Our heat pump problem guides cover the difference.

Repair or replace?

Under 10 years: repair almost always. Past 12–15 with a compressor or valve failure: replacement usually wins — and modern units are meaningfully more efficient. We show both numbers when it’s close.
