Climatemaster - High Electric Bill / Running Aux Ht

Geothermal: Heating

Re: High Electric Bill / Running Aux Ht

When a customer with a geo-thermal unit reports an electric bill that is much higher than normal, that typically means that the heat pump is not heating properly and the auxiliary heaters are operating more than normal.

► The blower and auxiliary heaters are typically working normally or the customer would also be experiencing no heat.
