Re: No heat from heat pump

I've never liked heat pumps for that reason, give me good old fashioned forced air heat!

To answer your question, yesterday when I tried experimenting with it, it was about 48 outside.

I like it cool and really have not turned the heat on. The basement has baseboard heaters and other than sleeping and cooking I've spend most of the time downstairs. The few chilly nights I've had a fire in the wood stove upstairs. But this week with relatives staying I've resorted to the heat pump for upstairs heating.

At 48 degrees, your heat pump should be able to pump out quite nice warm air - at least 5-7 degrees above ambient - so I would suggest calling your favourite HVAC tech and have them come check your system - could be stuck valves and you really are "A/C" instead of "Heat" even though you think you're on "Heat".
