  2. What is a Heat Pump and How Does It Work? What is a Heat Pump? A heat pump is an energy-efficient system that provides both heating and cooling by transferring heat between indoor and outdoor environments. How It Works: Heating Mode: Pulls heat from outside and moves it indoors. Cooling Mode: Removes indoor heat and releases it outside.

  3. Common Causes of Heat Pump Water Leaks Clogged Condensate Drain – Dirt and debris can block the drain, causing water buildup. Frozen Evaporator Coils – Ice melting from frozen coils can lead to excess water leakage. Dirty Air Filter – A clogged filter restricts airflow, causing coils to freeze and leak water. Low Refrigerant Levels – Low refrigerant levels can lead to coil freezing and excess condensation. Improper Installation – If the unit is not level, water may not drain properly. Damaged Drain Pan – A cracked or rusted drain pan can cause water leaks. High Humidity Levels – Excessive moisture in the air can create excessive condensation.

  4. How to Fix a Leaking Heat Pump Unclog the Condensate Drain – Clear blockages to allow proper water drainage Thaw Frozen Coils – Turn off the unit and let ice melt; check for airflow issues. Replace Air Filters – Clean or replace clogged filters to improve airflow. Check Refrigerant Levels – Low refrigerant can cause freezing and leaks; refill if needed. Inspect and Repair the Drain Pan – Fix cracks or replace a damaged drain pan. Ensure Proper Installation – Make sure the unit is level for correct drainage. Schedule Professional Maintenance – Regular servicing prevents leaks and improves efficiency.
