If you’re looking for reliable, efficient cooling and heating all year round in Edmonds, a mini-split heat pump is the way to go. Regular mini-split heat pump tune-up and preventative maintenance are essential to ensure they perform their best and run well over time.
This post will provide an ultimate mini-split heat pump tune-up checklist to keep your system running at its peak efficiency—preventing major malfunctions before they arise—helping you achieve more comfortable temperatures indoors, and significant energy savings!
Clean the Outdoor Condenser Coils
The first step in tune-up your mini-split heat pump is to clean the outdoor condenser coils. The coils can become dirty over time, reducing the heat pump’s efficiency. To clean the coils, remove them and rinse them with a garden hose.
Clean the Indoor Evaporator Coils
The next step is to clean the indoor evaporator coils. These coils can also become dirty over time, reducing the heat pump’s efficiency. To clean the coils, remove them and rinse them with a garden hose.
Replace the Air Filter
The third step is to replace the air filter. The air filter helps remove contaminants from the air, improving the air quality in your home. It is crucial to replace the air filter every few months to ensure it is effective.
Lubricate All Moving Parts
The fourth step is to lubricate all moving parts. This will help keep the heat pump running smoothly and prevent premature wear and tear. Apply a few drops of lubricant to all moving parts, such as the fan blades and compressor.
Inspect Electrical Connections
The fifth and final step is to inspect all electrical connections. This includes checking for any loose wires or damaged insulation. If any damage is found, it should be repaired or replaced by a qualified technician.
Don’t wait until your mini-split heat pump becomes an expensive repair project. Cascade Energy Services’ highly experienced technicians have the know-how to help get you back on track quickly, ensuring optimal comfort and energy efficiency all year!

I highly recommend Bill from Cascade Energy Services. He did what other HVAC companies in the area weren't able to do. Instead of trying to sell me into buying a new HVAC unit (which is what I initially contacted him for), he found me a replacement part for my existing high-end Trane furnace, ordered it on my behalf for local pickup just down the road from my house. This saved me $$ by not having to replace my entire furnace. I had paid another HVAC company to come out and try to find the replacement part but they couldn't do it. Bill did it over phone / email and didn't charge me anything. I simply paid for the part (at wholesale cost) that he ordered, and once I plugged in the new part (pressure switch), my furnace was up and running like normal. I'd trust Bill on the any HVAC matters. He is very knowledgeable and cares about doing the right thing for the customer. I now have a trusted go-to source for future heating and cooling needs!
