I have a York Heat Pump. Not sure what model, but it is used to heat and cool a small condo... one unit for the upstairs and one unit for the downstairs.
The fan in one of the outside units has stopped running. The outside unit is making a humming sound of sorts so I am guessing the fan motor or relay has gone out or something else is wrong inside. Inside the house warm air is coming out even though the fan outside does not run at all. I do NOT have it set to emergency heat.
I have a good service person, but he is not available until for a few days and I can't reach him.... don't flame me: I am not attempting to fix it myself and I can't afford to replace the whole unit (I have read other postings here about people's opinions on York :-)
1) If I continue to run the heating unit (which I pretty much need to... it is about 5F outside) will I damage the system? 2) Since I am still getting warm air is the unit automatically running in "emergency heat" mode ? I'd kind of like to know if I need to "prepare myself" for my next heating bill.Any thoughts or recommendations on what I can or should not do until the repair guy can come?
Thanks if you can help. Disco
