Why is my heat pump covered in ice?
It’s normal for a heat pump to be covered in a bit of frost during the winter. Because a heat pump in “heat” mode is pulling heat from the outside air and pulling it into your home. When that happens the humidity/moisture in the air around the heat pump becomes frost and clings to the heat pump.
Is it normal for heat pump to ice up?
Heat pumps can ice-up during the winter time. And it is normal for the entire coil to be covered in a white frost, even light ice, during certain weather conditions. Heat pumps will naturally ice-up in the winter but will periodically go into a defrost cycle to de-ice the coils. This keeps the unit running efficiently.
