The answer
How often should a heat pump be serviced and what should the price include?
Follow the manufacturer and warranty requirements for your model. Many owners plan regular servicing, but the cost and frequency should be judged against the actual checklist, travel, access and whether fault diagnosis or replacement parts are included.

What is a routine service?
A planned visit can review control settings, errors, airflow and condensate, water pressure and quality, strainers and electrical condition as appropriate to the system. The precise scope depends on the model and installation. Ask for written observations and a record of settings, not just a stamped date.

Why do prices differ?
An accessible domestic unit with no faults is a different job from a complex system needing diagnosis, specialist parts or multiple visits. Clarify whether travel, consumables, repairs and refrigerant work are extra. If the system has an active fault, describe the symptoms upfront so the service company can quote for diagnosis rather than a routine check alone.
