This means that it is normal for your heat pump to be running constantly during winter when the temperatures are at or below 30 degrees.<\/p>\n<p>However, if the heat pump is running constantly in the cooling mode during the summer, then there could be a problem. There are a couple of things that could be the cause of this and that you may be able to check out before calling in the professionals. These include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Is the air filter clean?<\/li>\n<li>Have you set the thermostat properly?<\/li>\n<li>Is the outdoor unit running?<\/li>\n<li>Is the condensate pump plugged in?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you check all these and your heat pump is still running constantly, then you may have a bigger problem that will need an expert&rsquo;s opinion.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Common_Reasons_for_Your_Heat_Pump_Running_Constantly\"><\/span>Common Reasons for Your Heat Pump Running Constantly<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/why-is-heat-pump-running-constantly-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"What to Do for a Heat Pump Running Constantly\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-4439\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/why-is-heat-pump-running-constantly-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/why-is-heat-pump-running-constantly-2.jpg 469w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If your heat pump is running constantly, even when it is not particularly cold outside, one of these four problems could be the cause.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Refrigerant leak<\/strong>: The heat pump usually uses a refrigerant to absorb and transfer heat from the outside air into your home. In the event there is a leak, the refrigerant levels will be low causing the heat pump to work harder to absorb the heat. This can cause the heat pump to run constantly.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Running in AC mode<\/strong>: Heat pumps are designed to switch between cooling and heating by reversing the direction of the refrigerant. However, the heat pump can get stuck in the AC mode if there is something wrong with the solenoid valve. This will result in the heat pump running constantly without ever reaching your desired temperature.<\/li>\n<li><strong>An undersized system<\/strong>: HVAC systems should be properly sized to ensure efficiency. An undersized heat pump will run constantly trying to achieve the desired temperature but will never actually fully heat or cool your home.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The outdoor unit is not running<\/strong>: The outdoor unit of a heat pump is responsible for absorbing heat and transferring it indoors during heating mode. If the outdoor unit is not working, then you will have an indoor system that is constantly running without any heating results.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Call_Galmiche_Sons_for_More_Information_on_Heat_Pump_Troubleshooting\"><\/span>Call Galmiche &amp; Sons for More Information on Heat Pump Troubleshooting<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Having your heat pump running constantly can either be normal or not, depending on the circumstances.
