Common Heat Pump Issues in Beaufort County Homes

Heat pump problems can develop suddenly or slowly worsen, especially in properties exposed to our region’s unique environment. Coastal communities throughout Beaufort County experience higher humidity and salt air, both of which can accelerate corrosion and cause drainage problems that lead to long-term system damage.
