Heat Pump Service Christchurch
Keep your home or workplace warm, cool, and efficient with professional heat pump servicing from Modserve.
Why service your heat pump?
Regular servicing ensures your system:
Runs efficiently, lowering power bills
Delivers reliable heating and cooling year round
Maintains healthy indoor air quality
Reduces the risk of costly breakdowns
Canterbury's weather conditions
Christchurch's cold, damp mornings, frosts, and coastal salt put extra strain on both the indoor and outdoor unit. Regular servicing keeps your heat pump performing through frosty starts, reduces unnecessary defrost interruptions, and helps avoid breakdowns right when you need heating most. It also protects your manufacturer warranty. Most major brands require documented, professional servicing to keep multi-year parts and labour cover valid.
Signs your heat pump needs a service
Book a service sooner rather than later if you notice:
Filters clogging again within weeks of cleaning
Circuit trips, water leaks, or persistent odours
Wi-Fi or controller not holding schedules
A noisy indoor or outdoor unit, heavy icing, or the system struggling to defrost
A coastal site that needs corrosion protection applied

Coastal Corrosion Protection
Properties near the coast or exposed to salt laden winds face faster corrosion on outdoor unit fins and fasteners. We apply a corrosion protection spray after a full clean, helping protect the unit, extend its service life, and maintain efficiency between services. Corrosion protection is recommended for coastal Christchurch sites (see pricing below).
Quick checks you can do yourself
Between professional services, a few simple checks help keep things running smoothly. See our guide: Heat Pump Servicing: Winter Checklist for Christchurch
