A Seamless Repair That Surprised Everyone: The Story of a “Unrepairable” LG Heat Pump
When we received a call from a homeowner in Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie, they had nearly given up hope on their LG Mini Split Ductless Heat Pump. After a few unsuccessful attempts with other service providers, the customer was convinced the unit was beyond saving. However, at AirGreen, we believe in thorough diagnostics, meticulous work, and leaving no stone unturned. This service call turned into a testament to our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.
The Initial Challenge: Diagnosing the “Unrepairable”
The customer's unit, an LG Mini Split with a sleek design and excellent energy efficiency rating, was showing signs of life but failing to cool or heat effectively. Common diagnostics like clogged filters, low refrigerant levels, or electrical faults didn’t seem to explain the issue.
When our technicians arrived, they noticed that the previous service attempts hadn’t delved deep enough into the system. The unit seemed fine on the surface, but subtle clues pointed to an internal fault that required deeper inspection. Our goal? To save the unit and ensure the customer didn’t need a costly replacement.
The Repair Process: Precision and Expertise at Work
Armed with advanced tools and decades of experience, our team:
- Inspected the Heat Pump’s Core Components: This included checking the condenser, evaporator coils, and fan motors.
- Tested Electrical Connections: Ensuring no loose or faulty wiring was causing intermittent failures.
- Evaluated Refrigerant Levels: Although within normal limits, we identified minor inconsistencies that hinted at an underlying issue.
- Disassembled and Inspected the Compressor: This is where we struck gold.
We discovered a hidden blockage in the compressor line—a rare issue that often goes unnoticed but can cripple the system's efficiency. By clearing the blockage and recalibrating the unit, we brought the heat pump back to life.
Customer Satisfaction: A Moment of Delight
The customer was astounded when the unit roared back to its former glory. What they thought was a lost cause became fully functional, delivering optimal cooling and heating once again. Our technicians took the time to explain the root cause, the repair process, and provided tips for future maintenance.
