Our proven process ensures your heat pump repair project is done right the first time.
Our Gulfport technician evaluates your heat pump by running it through a complete heating cycle and cooling cycle. We verify reversing valve solenoid operation, check defrost board timing, and measure output temperatures to determine if the system is switching modes correctly.
KIC Refrigeration performs a complete refrigerant circuit analysis on your Gulfport, MS heat pump. We measure high-side and low-side pressures against the manufacturer target chart for current outdoor ambient temperature, calculate subcooling at the condenser and superheat at the evaporator, and use electronic leak detectors to locate any refrigerant loss.
We replace the failed component — compressor, reversing valve, defrost board, contactor, capacitor, or metering device — using OEM or equivalent parts rated for your system tonnage and refrigerant type.
Our Gulfport crew verifies the repair by running the system in both modes. We confirm superheat and subcooling are within 2 degrees of target, the defrost cycle initiates and terminates properly, and the temperature split across the air handler is 15 to 20 degrees in cooling and 20 to 30 degrees in heating.
Everything you need to know before scheduling heat pump repair for your property.
