Aces Highlands handles heat pump repair for homeowners throughout Poland. We work out of 508 Riverside St Unit 1 in Portland, a short drive into Androscoggin County, so response times stay quick and every job benefits from knowing the local housing stock and code requirements.
When your heat pump stops working or is not performing like it should, Aces Highlands provides fast, accurate diagnostics and honest repairs. We fix the actual problem — not just the symptoms.
Heat pump issues can range from simple fixes like a dirty filter or tripped breaker to more complex problems like refrigerant leaks, compressor failures, or control board malfunctions. Our technicians diagnose accurately the first time so you get the right repair without paying for unnecessary parts.
We service all major heat pump brands including GE, Hitachi, Mitsubishi, Daikin, Fujitsu, and LG. We carry common replacement parts to complete most repairs in a single visit. Regular heat pump maintenance can help prevent many common repair issues before they start.
If your heat pump is beyond repair or the cost of fixing it does not make sense, we will tell you honestly and help you evaluate replacement options.

- Close enough to Poland for a fast response, local enough to know the town
- You get the real problem and a firm number, not a pitch for extras
- Most calls get on the schedule the same week you reach out
- Licensed and insured; Google reviewers back up the work
Poland Homes and What They Need
Poland's median home was built in 1988, among the newest housing stock Aces serves, with only about 10 percent of units predating 1940 and 16 percent predating 1960 -- a profile that fits a lake-country and commuter town more than an old mill center. That newer housing stock still runs a full range of heat pump and central-air equipment worth keeping serviced.
Heating and Cooling in Poland
Fuel oil dominates in Poland at about 74 percent of occupied homes, with bottled or tank propane at 15 percent and wood at 8 percent; there is no utility natural-gas main in town. That heavy reliance on delivered fuel makes a furnace replacement or propane-to-heat-pump conversion a common project for Poland homeowners.
Getting to Know Poland
Poland is where the Poland Spring bottled-water brand and the old Poland Spring House resort got their start, though the bottling company today is a private business with no connection to the town's own municipal water supply, since there isn't one. The town is also home to Range Ponds State Park, tucked among rolling hills and a cluster of lakes that define much of Poland's character.
Poland has no townwide public water or sewer system at all -- most of the town relies on private wells and septic, and roughly 80 to 90 percent of its soils are rated suitable for on-site septic systems. As part of the Lewiston-Auburn metro area, Poland has also grown steadily as a lake-country and commuter town rather than around an old mill village.
Local & Independent — Not a Franchise
Aces Highlands answers to Poland homeowners directly, not a franchise office somewhere else in the country. Our technicians are not commissioned salespeople and nobody here is required to upsell you anything. That is how we keep customers calling back, one honest job at a time.
How a Heat Pump Works
- Outdoor unit — fan and compressor extract heat from outside air
- Reversing valve — switches the system between heating and cooling
- Line set — carries hot, high-pressure refrigerant indoors
- Indoor coil — releases heat into the airstream
- Warm air — the blower delivers it to the room

Common Heat Pump Failures and What They Usually Mean
Heat pump problems tend to fall into a short list of patterns. Knowing which one you're seeing helps set expectations before the technician even arrives.

Codes & Permits for Heat Pump Repair in Poland
In Poland, plumbing permits come from the Local Plumbing Inspector at the Code Enforcement & Planning and Development, Town of Poland (1231 Maine Street, Poland, ME 04274, (207) 998-4601). With 5,906 residents, Poland is required to enforce the Maine Uniform Building and Energy Code (MUBEC). Poland is the historic home of the Poland Spring bottled-water brand and the former Poland Spring House resort; the bottled-water business is a private company, not a municipal water utility.
- The electrical circuit that feeds a new heat pump or AC condenser needs an electrical permit, issued by the Electricians' Examining Board or the town's own electrical inspector, before the wiring is installed or altered. maine.gov
- Efficiency Maine offers rebates of up to $9,000 on qualifying heat pumps, but the equipment must be installed by an Efficiency Maine Residential Registered Vendor for the homeowner to receive the rebate. efficiencymaine.com
- Anyone who connects or disconnects gauges or adds/removes refrigerant on a heat pump or air conditioner must hold EPA Section 608 technician certification; the credential does not expire once earned. epa.gov
How Aces Highlands Handles Heat Pump Repair in Poland
- Because roughly 74% of Poland homes are already on heating oil, a heat pump repair usually means deciding how much of the heating load the new equipment should carry, not ripping out what's there.
- Every outdoor unit we set gets its own permitted circuit before it's wired in, and any refrigerant work is done under our EPA Section 608 certification.
- Because Efficiency Maine ties its rebates to Residential Registered Vendor status, we go over what your project actually qualifies for before you commit a dollar.

I've had three HVAC issues over the past two years. Each time I call, Elija or the office picks up the phone, and my problem is fixed in 24 hrs. Their solutions always feel correct and honest. I cannot recommend them more.

Elijah and Highlands Heating & AC were super helpful! Boiler failed over the weekend and Elijah was very responsive and helpful, getting us up and running right away. I would recommend him at HH&AC highly!

We highly recommend Highlands Heating & AC. They are extremely responsive, knowledgeable and do great work. Our boiler stopped working and Elijah was quick to respond after hours on a Friday. He installed a new boiler and heat pump hot water heater.

He was very friendly. He gave me an honest explanation on why I shouldn't recharge my A/C unit and what he suggested made much more sense. He really took care of everything. He is very professional, always called me with updates. 5 stars is not enough — I give this company 10 stars.

We have called Samuel for our electrical needs over the last few years and have always been impressed with professional and courteous attitude — installing extra outlets, installing new lights and ceiling fans, our whole house generator, charger for the electric car, even the hot tub!!! His price was fair, and never disappointed when work was completed.
Heat Pump Repair FAQs
Why is my heat pump covered in ice?
Light frost on the outdoor coil is normal — the unit runs periodic defrost cycles to clear it. Solid ice that never clears is not normal, and usually points to a failed defrost sensor or board, low refrigerant, or blocked airflow. Shut the unit off and have it diagnosed before the ice damages the fan or coil.
Why is my heat pump blowing cold air in heat mode?
Check the remote is actually in heat mode and the filters are clean first. If those are fine, the usual causes are low refrigerant from a leak, a failing reversing valve, or a compressor issue — all of which need a technician with gauges to confirm.
How much does heat pump repair cost?
Simple fixes like condensate clogs, sensors, or capacitors are commonly a few hundred dollars. Board replacements and refrigerant leak repairs cost more, and we always quote before we repair, so you can decide with the real number in front of you.
Do you service heat pumps you did not install?
Yes. We repair all major brands — GE, Hitachi, Mitsubishi, Daikin, Fujitsu, LG and others — regardless of who installed the system.
Is it worth repairing a 10-year-old heat pump?
Often yes, if the repair is minor and the system was installed well. Past 12–15 years or facing a compressor or major refrigerant repair, replacement usually makes more financial sense — especially with Efficiency Maine rebates lowering the cost of a new system. We give you both numbers and let you choose.
