Does a heat pump require more maintenance?
The maintenance performed on a heat pump is not much different than what’s required of air-conditioning equipment. It’s a good idea to have maintenance performed in the spring and fall. Disposable air filters should be inspected and changed as needed or no less than every three to four months. For improved indoor air quality, consider using cleanable, reusable electrostatic air filters that can be used over and over. Other excellent options include whole-house electronic air filtration units and for ultimate allergy protection HEPA air filters.
