A clear, step-by-step approach to every heat pump repair project we take on.
KIC Refrigeration begins every heat pump repair in Florissant, MO with a dual-mode performance test. We measure supply air temperatures in heat and cool, verify the reversing valve energizes and de-energizes properly, and test the defrost control board to confirm it initiates defrost cycles at the correct intervals.
At your Florissant property, our technician connects digital manifold gauges and measures suction pressure, discharge pressure, liquid line temperature, and suction line temperature. We calculate superheat and subcooling to determine if the charge is correct or if there is a restriction in the metering device or a refrigerant leak.
We replace the failed component — compressor, reversing valve, defrost board, contactor, capacitor, or metering device — using OEM or equivalent parts rated for your system tonnage and refrigerant type.
KIC Refrigeration does not consider your Florissant, MO heat pump repair complete until every performance metric checks out. We verify pressures, temperatures, amperage draws, defrost timing, reversing valve switching, and thermostat communication before signing off on the work.
Common questions about heat pump repair costs, timelines, and what to expect.
Heat pump repair in Florissant typically ranges from $150 to $600 for common component failures like run capacitors, contactors, defrost timers, and condenser fan motors. Reversing valve replacement is a more involved job that runs $800 to $2,000 including refrigerant recovery and recharge. Compressor replacement costs $1,500 to $3,000 depending on the unit tonnage, refrigerant type — whether R-410A or older R-22 — and whether a hard-start kit is needed. KIC Refrigeration provides a detailed written estimate with parts and labor itemized before any work begins at your Florissant property, so you know exactly what the repair will cost.

Yes. KIC Refrigeration provides 24/7 emergency heat pump repair in Florissant and surrounding Missouri communities every day of the year including holidays. A failed heat pump in freezing weather is a genuine emergency — indoor temperatures can drop below 40 degrees within hours, putting water pipes at risk of freezing and bursting. Our emergency technicians are dispatched with fully stocked vehicles carrying capacitors, contactors, defrost boards, fan motors, and refrigerant so the most common failures can be repaired on the first visit. Call our Florissant emergency line any time and we will have a technician on the way to your property as quickly as possible.
Most heat pump repairs in Florissant are completed in 1 to 3 hours during a single service visit. Common electrical component failures — capacitors, contactors, defrost relays, and flame sensors — typically take 30 to 60 minutes. Fan motor replacements take 1 to 2 hours. Reversing valve and compressor replacements are the most time-intensive repairs at 4 to 6 hours because they require refrigerant recovery with a certified machine, component removal, brazing with nitrogen purge, leak testing, evacuation to below 500 microns, and recharging by weight. KIC Refrigeration arrives at your Florissant home with a fully stocked truck to minimize return trips and keep your downtime as short as possible.
