Heat pumps run year-round. Twice the wear of a furnace. Annual tune-ups catch problems early.
Annual Tune-Up Report
System Health: Excellent
All checks passed
One tune-up covers both heating and cooling. Full checkup every visit.
Year-round use means wear adds up fast. Service keeps it in shape.
Comprehensive checklist. Nothing skipped.
Measured against factory spec. Low charge kills efficiency and the compressor.
Cleaned and checked for corrosion. Dirty coils slash capacity.
Tightened and tested. Loose wires cause arc faults and tripped breakers.
Timing and temp verified. Failed defrost = ice buildup and no winter heat.
Accuracy checked. 2 degrees off wastes energy and cycles the system.
Flushed and cleared. Clogs cause water damage, mold, and shutdowns.
Static pressure tested. Restricted airflow is the #1 cause of compressor failure.
High/low pressure switches and contactor tested. They protect against catastrophic damage.
Most homeowners schedule once a year. If your heat pump is your only system, twice a year is ideal.
Before cooling season. Focus on what matters for summer performance.
Before heating season. Verify what keeps you warm all winter.
"Had our heat pump tuned up before winter. The tech found a loose wire on the contactor that would have failed within weeks. Glad we caught it early. Professional and thorough."
"Five years of annual tune-ups with Next Phase. My heat pump runs like new and my energy bills haven't crept up at all. That's the whole point of maintenance, and they deliver."
"Tech arrived on time, spent about an hour going through everything, and showed me photos of the coil before and after cleaning. First company that's actually explained what they're doing."
"Our Carrier heat pump is 14 years old and still going strong. Annual maintenance is the only reason. Next Phase has been servicing it since year one. Highly recommend."
"Scheduled a spring tune-up and they found low refrigerant. Topped it off and checked for leaks — all good. Without the tune-up, my AC would have struggled all summer."

Once a year minimum. Twice is better — spring for cooling, fall for heating. If you only do one, pick fall.
Yes. Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Mitsubishi, Daikin all require proof of annual maintenance for warranty claims. No records = denied claims.
Refrigerant, both coils, electrical connections, defrost cycle, thermostat, drain, airflow, safety controls. 60–90 minutes.
Change the filter every 1–3 months and clear debris from the outdoor unit. Everything else needs a licensed tech.
18–22 years with annual maintenance. 10–12 without. Service is the #1 factor in lifespan.
