When All Hope Was Lost, Our Experts Delivered Beyond Expectations
At AirGreen, we pride ourselves on delivering exceptional HVAC services across Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, the North Shore, and the South Shore. This time, our skills were put to the ultimate test during a recent service call in Laval, where a customer was convinced their beloved ductless heat pump was beyond repair. Here’s how we turned the situation around and left another happy customer singing our praises.
The Backstory: A Machine Written Off as Unrepairable
Our story begins with a customer in Laval who had been struggling with inconsistent heating and cooling. Their wall-mounted heat pump, an energy-efficient mini split system, had stopped functioning properly, leaving them frustrated and uncomfortable. After seeking advice elsewhere, they were told the machine was irreparable and needed a full replacement—a costly proposition.
That’s when they reached out to us, hoping against hope that we could provide a second opinion. Spoiler alert: we didn’t just meet their expectations—we exceeded them.
The Initial Assessment: Diagnosing the Problem
Upon arrival, our highly trained technicians conducted a thorough inspection of the unit. The customer had already resigned themselves to the idea of a replacement, but we assured them that our diagnostic process was meticulous. Armed with years of experience and advanced tools, we began investigating every component of the heat pump, including:
- The Compressor: The heart of the system, critical for efficient performance.
- Refrigerant Lines: A common culprit behind cooling issues.
- Electrical Connections: Ensuring safe and optimal operation.
- Air Filters and Coils: Often overlooked but essential for airflow and efficiency.
It didn’t take long for our team to uncover the root cause: a minor electrical fault in the control board, which was causing intermittent malfunctions. What others had dismissed as a major failure turned out to be a fixable issue.
The Repair Process: Expertise Meets Precision
Fixing the control board required both skill and patience. Our technicians carefully disassembled the unit to access the faulty components, ensuring no other parts were disrupted in the process. Here’s what the repair entailed:
- Circuit Diagnostics: Using specialized equipment to pinpoint the malfunctioning segment.
- Component Replacement: Installing a high-quality replacement part to restore functionality.
- System Testing: Running comprehensive tests to ensure the machine was operating at peak performance.
Throughout the process, we maintained open communication with the customer, explaining each step in plain terms. Transparency is a cornerstone of our service philosophy, and this approach helped build trust and confidence.
A Happy Ending: Restoring Comfort and Peace of Mind
Once the repair was complete, we powered up the heat pump and demonstrated its renewed performance. The customer was overjoyed to see their once “unrepairable” unit humming along like new. Not only did they save money by avoiding a full replacement, but they also gained a deeper appreciation for the durability of their heat pump.
Our team didn’t stop there. We provided the customer with a maintenance checklist to keep their machine in top condition, including:
- Regular cleaning of filters.
- Seasonal checks for refrigerant levels.
- Ensuring unobstructed airflow around the outdoor unit.
