Heat pump repair in Dover can be a cooling complaint in July or a heating complaint in January. Outdoor equipment needs to sit above snow that slides off a mill roof or a steep house roof. Salt air reaches Dover on some storms, and coils and disconnects corrode. Ice on the outdoor unit, a backup heat strip that never shuts off, or lukewarm air are different faults. Brick mill buildings and the older streets around the Cochecho were not designed for ducts. Radiators and baseboard are common. Later streets mix capes and colonials on oil or gas. Converted mill space crams equipment into closets. Say how old the system is and whether anyone has added refrigerant. Northern Utilities is the gas map that applies here more often than Liberty's Merrimack Valley list. Unitil electric territory covers much of the seacoast. Confirm both on the bills. A dual-fuel system still has the old furnace or boiler. Tell the contractor which one is running. They quote after diagnosis. Confirm insurance.
