Offering Top-Rated Heat Pump Service from Jupiter to Boca Raton, FL
Experts are concerned as U.S. heatwaves become the norm, the rush to install high BTU air conditioners will create even more heat. But heat pumps are more energy-efficient because they don’t generate heat. Instead, they pull warmth from the outside air and move it inside, or vice versa in summer.
There are several kinds of heat pumps:
- Air-source
- Gas
- Geothermal
- Hybrid
- Mini-split
- Solar
- Water source
The heating and cooling professionals at Hopkins Air Conditioning have over 45 years of South Florida HVACÂ experience.
Why Heat Pumps Are Great for Florida Homes
Heat pumps offer energy-efficient heating and cooling solutions for year-round comfort. Florida’s tropical climate causes high humidity levels, which increases the chance of mold growth and allergens. Heat pumps excel at maintaining temperature levels and effectively dehumidify and improve your home’s indoor air quality.
Additional benefits of heat pump installation for your West Palm Beach home include:
- Reduce your carbon footprint
- Long-term savings and lower operating costs
- Improve home comfort
- Save with rebates and tax incentives

Heat Pump Repairs
Some of the most common heat pump repairs are:
- Electrical: This is the most common problem and is typically not that difficult for a professional to repair. Never attempt a DIY diagnosis or repair with an electrical problem. It’s not worth the risk.
- Frozen or iced-over outdoor unit: It can happen, even here. Your heat pump has a defrost cycle, but if it fails and the outdoor coil ices up, act quickly. It isn’t a problem yet, but it could strain the unit and lead to a breakdown.
- Refrigerant: Heat pumps use refrigerant year-round. If you suspect a refrigerant leak, contact us quickly. It means the unit can’t absorb and transfer heat correctly, which can damage the compressor.
- Reversing valve: This allows you to switch from heating to cooling. If it gets stuck, schedule a heat pump repair.
Why settle for less? You want the most experienced, professional air conditioning and heating services company.
