My mom called me last Friday, because she thought a rodent was inside of the HVAC duct.
I told my mom that it was unlikely, although she insisted that I come over after work to check it out… When I arrived, I started looking at the heat pump as well as the HVAC duct.
I used a particularly bright flashlight to see inside of the HVAC duct. I saw no evidence of rats or mice. I didn’t even see any evidence of bugs care about cockroaches, termites, or ants, and my mom told me about a loud sound that she kept hearing at night. When she started to describe the sound, I didn’t believe it seemed care about a HVAC duct problem at all. I believed it sounded care about an issue with a heat pump; Unluckyly, heat pumps as well as electricity are not my section of knowledge. I could have helped my mom with a pest control problem, however I didn’t suppose the first thing about the heat pump. I knew it was best to leave the work to a professional as well as certified expert. I found a local heating contractor that offers free estimates as well as I gave them a call for my mom. Waited until the repair repair arrived so I could find out what they thought about the problem. They agreed that the sounds were likely coming from the heat pump as well as not the HVAC duct. They performed a full proposal repair tune up that included cleaning all of the electrical as well as mechanical parts of the system, however hopefully the proposal will run better now that it has been serviced as well as cleaned.
