From initial contact to final verification — here is how we handle heat pump repair.
We test your heat pump in both heating and cooling modes, checking the reversing valve operation, defrost cycle initiation, and auxiliary heat engagement to isolate which mode and component is failing.
KIC Refrigeration performs a complete refrigerant circuit analysis on your Middlesex, PA 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.
Our Middlesex technician installs the replacement part with proper brazing techniques for sealed-system components, recovers refrigerant before opening the circuit, pulls a 500-micron vacuum on reassembly, and recharges to the manufacturer-specified weight.
We run the heat pump through complete heating and cooling cycles, verify pressures match the manufacturer chart, confirm the defrost cycle activates correctly, and check the temperature differential across the coil meets specification.

Heat pump repair in Middlesex typically ranges from $150 to $600 for common component failures like run capacitors, contactors, defrost timers, and condenser fan motors. Reversing valve replacement is a more involved job that runs $800 to $2,000 including refrigerant recovery and recharge. Compressor replacement costs $1,500 to $3,000 depending on the unit tonnage, refrigerant type — whether R-410A or older R-22 — and whether a hard-start kit is needed. KIC Refrigeration provides a detailed written estimate with parts and labor itemized before any work begins at your Middlesex property, so you know exactly what the repair will cost.
KIC Refrigeration provides a comprehensive workmanship warranty on all heat pump repairs performed in Middlesex, PA. Replacement parts carry manufacturer warranties that range from 1 to 10 years depending on the component — compressors typically carry 5 to 10 year manufacturer warranties, while electrical components like capacitors and contactors carry 1 to 2 year warranties. If a part we install fails within the warranty period, we replace it at no charge for the part and provide the labor to install it. KIC Refrigeration handles all warranty documentation and claims on your behalf so you never have to chase paperwork. Ask your technician about specific warranty terms during your service appointment.
Yes. KIC Refrigeration provides 24/7 emergency heat pump repair in Middlesex and surrounding Pennsylvania communities every day of the year including holidays. A failed heat pump in freezing weather is a genuine emergency — indoor temperatures can drop below 40 degrees within hours, putting water pipes at risk of freezing and bursting. Our emergency technicians are dispatched with fully stocked vehicles carrying capacitors, contactors, defrost boards, fan motors, and refrigerant so the most common failures can be repaired on the first visit. Call our Middlesex emergency line any time and we will have a technician on the way to your property as quickly as possible.
A heat pump blowing cold air in heating mode is most commonly caused by a failed reversing valve solenoid, which gets stuck and prevents the system from switching from cooling to heating. Other causes include low refrigerant charge that reduces the heat output at the condenser coil, a stuck or failed defrost control board that keeps the outdoor unit in defrost mode too long, or a thermostat that has lost communication with the control board. KIC Refrigeration tests the reversing valve by measuring the temperature difference across it, checks refrigerant pressures with manifold gauges, and verifies the defrost sequence to isolate the exact cause at your Middlesex property.
Our reputation is built on certified technicians, honest pricing, and results that last.
