How Does a Heat Pump Work?
A heat pump moves heat instead of creating it by burning fuel. During the summer, it works much like a central air conditioner by removing heat and moisture from indoor air. During the winter, the system reverses direction and transfers available heat from the outdoor air into the home.
This ability to provide heating and cooling makes heat pumps a practical option for Georgia’s generally mild winters and long cooling season. Efficiency still depends on selecting the right equipment and installing it correctly. Oversized or undersized systems can cycle improperly, struggle to control humidity, or use more energy than expected.

Heat Pump Installation and Replacement
When installing a new heat pump, we evaluate the home’s size, layout, insulation, ductwork, existing equipment, and comfort concerns. We then help you compare system capacities, SEER2 and HSPF2 efficiency ratings, features, warranties, and pricing.
A heat pump may be worth considering if you need to replace both aging heating and cooling equipment or want one electric system for year-round comfort. If you are comparing additional cooling options, visit our AC installation page.
Heat Pump Repair
Call Total Services if your heat pump is blowing air at the wrong temperature, running constantly, making unusual noises, freezing repeatedly, cycling frequently, or relying more heavily on auxiliary heat. Our technicians test the system to determine whether the problem involves the thermostat, airflow, electrical components, refrigerant circuit, reversing valve, defrost controls, or another component.
A brief defrost cycle on a cool day can be normal. A unit that remains covered in ice or repeatedly enters defrost without clearing itself should be professionally inspected.
Heat Pump Maintenance
Because a heat pump provides both heating and cooling, it works during more months of the year than separate seasonal equipment. Regular maintenance gives a technician an opportunity to check airflow, coils, refrigerant levels, electrical components, drainage, thermostat operation, and overall performance.
Total Services recommends HVAC maintenance twice per year. Our annual maintenance plan includes two visits, appointment reminders, priority scheduling, no overtime charges, and qualifying repair and replacement discounts.
Is a Heat Pump Right for Your Savannah Home?
Heat pumps work well for many Savannah homes, but the right choice depends on the property. Existing ductwork, electrical service, equipment condition, home layout, and comfort goals all matter. Older Savannah homes without usable ductwork may also benefit from a ductless mini-split heat pump.
Our technicians can evaluate your home and explain how a heat pump compares with other options. Visit our main heating services page to learn about the additional systems we install and service.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are heat pumps efficient in Georgia?
Yes. Heat pumps are a strong option for Georgia because they provide efficient heating during generally mild winters while also cooling the home in summer. Actual energy use depends on equipment efficiency, sizing, installation quality, thermostat settings, home construction, and maintenance.
How long does a heat pump typically last?
About 15 years is a reasonable planning estimate for an air-source heat pump, although actual service life varies. Installation quality, maintenance, operating hours, coastal exposure, and repair history can all affect how long the equipment remains reliable.
