Safe checks before you call
- Confirm the outdoor unit has clearance and isn't blocked by snow, mulch, or debris.
- Check the thermostat is set to Heat (not Emergency Heat, which bypasses the heat pump).
- A light, even coat of frost on the outdoor coil in winter is normal — a heavy buildup that doesn't clear during a defrost cycle is not.
Beyond these basics, leave refrigerant, gas, and internal electrical components to a technician.
Frequently asked questions
Why does my heat pump blow cool air in winter?
Heat pump air is naturally cooler than a furnace's, but if the house isn't warming up, check for a stuck reversing valve, low refrigerant, or the system stuck in defrost.
Is heavy ice on my heat pump normal?
A light frost is normal in cold, humid weather and clears during scheduled defrost cycles. Heavy ice that doesn't clear points to a defrost-control or reversing-valve fault.
Do you install new heat pumps?
No — Roxly repairs and maintains existing residential heat pump systems, not new installation or full replacement.
Do you travel to Ballantyne for HVAC service?
Yes. Roxly is a mobile service based in Waxhaw, NC and covers Ballantyne and Mecklenburg County. Scheduling depends on availability and drive time.
