Heat Pump Repairs
You may choose to heat your home with a heat pump, which removes the heat from your home during the summer months and emits heat when you need it in the wintertime. Lightfoot Mechanical can also help you with heat pump repairs, ensuring the pump in your home performs efficiently, without any faults or issues.

Heat pumps are also more technical than other forms of heating systems; our contractors are fully licensed to work with all heat pump models to a high, professional standard.

Keep Your Furnace Running its Best
With all of the maintenance and upkeep required around your home, it’s easy to overlook your heating system. But not taking the time out to keep your furnace properly maintained is a costly mistake. Not only is maintenance and cleaning necessary to keep your utility costs low, being sure your system is properly maintained will also prolong the life of the system.
At Lightfoot Mechanical, we are dedicated to making sure your heating system lasts as long as it possibly can and runs as efficiently as possible. Let us help you keep your furnace running its best by scheduling regular maintenance.
Keep it Clean
A dirty furnace also leads to an inefficient furnace.
There are three important areas of a furnace that need to stay clean to keep your system running properly: the filter, the blower and the blower motor.
One of the most important and easiest steps in keeping your furnace working properly is cleaning your filter. The filter should should be replaced at the beginning of the heating season, but then you should follow your manufacturer’s recommendation throughout the season.
When it comes to the more difficult cleaning tasks like cleaning the blower and blower motor, it’s best tocall a professional.
Cleaning these essential parts of your furnace requires removal of panels that house these parts, as well as removal of the fan unit.
Furnace cleaning is part of our regular furnace maintenance program, and at Lightfoot Mechanical we stand behind our work.
