Who is heat pump maintenance for?
Regular maintenance is important for every heat pump owner — in these situations a service is especially timely.
The unit is not heating properly
Output has dropped or the unit runs continuously without results.
Unpleasant odour
The filters or heat exchanger need cleaning.
Annual service is due
Regular maintenance extends the unit’s lifespan and keeps the warranty valid.
Error codes on the display
The unit is showing a fault — a professional will identify the cause.
New home with a heat pump
The previous owner did not service the unit — it needs an inspection.
Multiple units
You want to service all units at once and save on maintenance costs.
How to recognise the need for maintenance
A heat pump begins to show signs long before an actual fault occurs. Look out for the following:
- The unit’s noise has changed or the airflow sounds abnormal
- The air no longer feels as cool or warm on the same settings
- Stale odour comes from the indoor unit when it starts up
- The settings do not seem to have the expected effect even though the remote works

Everything you need to know about heat pump maintenance
A heat pump is an investment that requires regular maintenance to operate efficiently and last for years. An unserviced unit consumes more electricity, heats less effectively, and can spread impurities into the indoor air. On this page, we explain what heat pump maintenance involves, when to book a service, and how it affects the unit’s lifespan.
Why is heat pump maintenance important?
- **Better efficiency** — A clean unit operates more efficiently and uses less electricity
- **Longer lifespan** — Regular maintenance can extend the unit’s life by several years
- **Cleaner indoor air** — Dirty filters spread dust and allergens
- **Warranty remains valid** — Many manufacturers require regular servicing as a warranty condition
- **Fault prevention** — A professional spots problems before they cause more serious damage
What does heat pump maintenance include?
A typical heat pump service includes the following tasks:
- **Filter cleaning or replacement** — Dirty filters reduce airflow and efficiency
- **Indoor unit cleaning** — Cleaning of the heat exchanger, coil, and fan
- **Outdoor unit inspection** — Coil cleaning, checking for leaks and damage
- **Performance testing** — Checking the unit’s settings and operation
- **Refrigerant check** — In a comprehensive service, the refrigerant level and possible leaks are checked
- **Diagnostics** — Reading error codes and investigating issues
Heat pump maintenance price 2026
The cost of heat pump maintenance varies according to the scope of the service and the type of unit. Typical prices in the Helsinki metropolitan area:
- **Basic service (annual):** €150–€200 — filter cleaning, indoor and outdoor unit inspection, performance testing
- **Comprehensive service:** €200–€350 — includes thorough heat exchanger cleaning and refrigerant check
- **Multiple-unit service:** €250–€500 — service for 2–4 units in a single visit, volume discount
How often should a heat pump be serviced?
We recommend a professional service at least once a year. If the unit is in heavy use — for example year-round heating and cooling — more frequent servicing may be needed. In dusty environments or households with pets, the filters get dirty faster and the service interval may be shorter. You can clean the filters yourself every 2–3 months — it is straightforward and helps extend the interval between professional services.

When does a heat pump need servicing?
The following signs indicate that your heat pump needs a service:
- The unit is not heating or cooling properly
- Electricity consumption has increased without an obvious reason
- The unit produces an unpleasant odour
- The display shows an error code or fault message
- The unit runs continuously but the temperature does not rise
- The outdoor unit freezes repeatedly in winter
- It has been over a year since the last service
Heat pump maintenance and the household tax deduction
Heat pump maintenance work qualifies for the Finnish household tax deduction (kotitalousvähennys) when carried out by a company. In 2026, the deduction is 35% of the labour cost. We itemise the labour and material costs in the quote so you can easily claim the deduction. Read more about the household tax deduction calculator.
