Franklin Roosevelt Park · Priority
Heat Pump Leaking Water in Franklin Roosevelt Park
Water pooling under or around the unit, sometimes continuously. This page covers how we diagnose and repair it on heat pumps in Franklin Roosevelt Park.
This fault is normally treated as priority work because the plant is still running but is damaging itself or wasting energy while it does.
Franklin Roosevelt Park sits within the Randburg belt, with larger stands, long hot water runs and frequent pool heating. Static pressure and dead-leg length are checked as part of any hot water complaint here. Gauteng municipal water is moderately hard, so scale on elements and heat exchangers is the single most common cause of falling performance.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
What causes heat pump leaking water?
The usual causes are blocked condensate drain or tray, perforated heat exchanger, failed pump seal or union, cracked pipework from freeze or vibration. Which one it is can only be confirmed by measurement, not by symptom alone.
How do you diagnose it?
Trace the leak with the unit isolated and pressurised; Pressure test the water circuit; Inspect the condensate tray and drain path; Check heat exchanger for cross-leak into the water side. The readings are recorded so the repair decision is based on data.
Can I keep using the system in the meantime?
Usually yes, for a short period, but efficiency and component life are both being lost while the fault persists.
Do you attend this fault in Franklin Roosevelt Park?
Yes. Technicians work out of the central Johannesburg base, which keeps travel time short for northern-suburb call-outs. Franklin Roosevelt Park visits carry heat pump and geyser spares together, since both are commonly installed on the same property.
