What Is A Heat Pump?
A heat pump is an innovative unit that both heats and cools your home. Instead of creating heat by combusting natural gas or heating electric elements, a heat pump simply moves heat from one place to another.
In the winter, they gather heat from outside and move it into your home. In the summer, they draw heat from your home and move it outside, leaving your home nice and cool. At Waldrop, we can help you choose the best solution for your home from these types of heat pumps:
- Air source heat pumps – This type of heat pump absorbs heat from the outside air to heat your home. They can extract heat from the air as long as the outside temperatures is no lower than 5°F.
- Geothermal heat pumps – Also called ground source heat pumps, these units draw heat from deep underground. They are extremely energy efficient and can reduce your heating and cooling bills by 70% or more.
- Mini-split heat pumps – Mini-split heat pumps provide a duct-free solution for heating and cooling. This is ideal if you’re building an addition onto your home or converting a basement, garage, or attic into a livable space.

Waldrop’s Heat Pump Services
We offer comprehensive heat pump services in South Carolina, including:
HEAT PUMP INSTALLATION
Whether you’re making the switch to a heat pump or replacing your old one, the professionals at Waldrop can help. We’ll help you weigh the pros and cons of each type of heat pump, ensuring that you end up with the best option for your home and budget.
Our heating experts will evaluate your home to size your heat pump so that you get the ideal balance of performance and efficiency. We’ll install your new heat pump and calibrate it for your home, testing it thoroughly before we leave.
HEAT PUMP REPAIR
When your heat pump stops working, call in the NATE-certified technicians at Waldrop for high-quality heat pump repair. We’ll be there quickly to diagnose the problem and restore comfort to your home.
Don’t wait for your heat pump to break down to call for repair – reach out to us if you notice that it’s acting strange or isn’t performing as well as normal. These signs often occur right before a heat pump stops working altogether, so having your heat pump repaired before that happens can prevent the hassle and expense of a total breakdown.
HEAT PUMP MAINTENANCE
Your heat pump works hard year round, doing the job of both a furnace and an air conditioner. Routine heat pump maintenance is essential to keep it running well and prevent major problems. Proper maintenance also extends the life of your heat pump to provide you with extra years on your investment.
Your heat pump needs maintenance once per year if it is a supplemental system, and twice per year if it is your primary HVAC system. At Waldrop, we offer multiple maintenance plans to save you money and simplify heat pump maintenance as much as possible.

Heat Pump FAQs
What are the signs that I need to replace my heat pump?
If you notice any of the following issues, it may be time to replace your heat pump:
- Poor or weak airflow
- Strange smells or unusual noises
- The need for frequent or repeated repairs
- Rising energy bills, indicating reduced efficiency
Call us today and we will gladly have a look and give you an honest heat pump status assessment.
How long should my heat pumps last?
With proper maintenance, heat pumps typically last around 15 years. However, factors like usage and environmental conditions can impact the longevity of the system.
What do SEER and HSPF mean for heat pumps?
SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) measures a heat pump’s cooling efficiency. HSPF (Heating Seasonal Performance Factor) evaluates its heating efficiency. Higher ratings for both indicate a more energy-efficient and cost-saving system.
What’s the emergency or auxiliary heat setting on a heat pump?
Emergency and auxiliary heat serve different purposes for handling extreme conditions when a heat pump can’t fully heat your home. Emergency Heat is manually activated via the thermostat, this mode uses electric coils to provide 100% of the heat. This is typically used when the heat pump system malfunctions.
Auxiliary Heat is automatically triggered to support the heat pump when outdoor temperatures drop too low for the pump alone to gather enough heat.
