Fast, Reliable Heat Pump Repair
When You Need Help Now
Heat pump repair near you across the valley
If your system quits during a heat wave or won’t keep up on a still evening, DMD Mechanical is ready to help. We handle urgent heat pump repair calls across Coachella Valley, including
Palm Desert,
La Quinta,
Rancho Mirage, Indian Wells, and Palm Springs. From the first call to the final test, our family-run team focuses on clear communication and getting your home comfortable again.
Common Symptoms We Fix
From short cycling to iced lines, we’ll be there no matter the weather Heat pumps can fail in a few familiar ways. Give us a call if you notice:
- No cool or no heat from vents
- Short cycling or frequent on/off
- Iced outdoor lines or coil frosting
- Breaker trips or electrical smells
- Loud rattling, buzzing, or grinding noises
- Weak airflow or rooms that never reach setpoint
What We Check First
Airflow and refrigerant tell the story
A heat pump can’t perform without healthy airflow. We inspect filters, duct returns, static pressure, blower operation, and the outdoor unit’s coil condition. We confirm refrigerant charge and electrical components so you know exactly what went wrong and why. If airflow issues keep coming back, we’ll recommend steps to improve ducts and balance rooms for more even comfort.
Our Repair Process
Clear diagnosis, straightforward pricing - the right fix for you
- Diagnose: We start with a full system check - thermostat, air handler, outdoor unit, refrigerant levels, and airflow.
- Quote:
You’ll get an upfront repair price before any work begins. We never push single-stage replacements you don’t need.
- Repair: We make the fix, verify charge and temperatures, and test the system under load.
- Options: If replacement might be smarter, we’ll compare costs and payback and review heat pump installation options without any pressure.
Prevent The Next Breakdown
Simple steps that protect performance
After a repair, we’ll show you easy coil and filter care to keep things running right between visits. To stay ahead of peak heat, consider heat pump maintenance with spring and fall tune-ups, priority scheduling, and reminders so service never slips through the cracks.
Where We Work
Local service across Coachella Valley

Heat Pump Questions, Answered
Why is my heat pump short-cycling?
Short cycling often points to airflow problems, thermostat settings, low refrigerant, or electrical issues. We’ll test each area and explain the fix.
My system is running, but there’s no airflow—what now?
Check for a clogged filter first. If airflow is still weak, the blower, duct restriction, or iced coil may be the cause. We’ll confirm and resolve it.
My system is broken —should I repair or replace? How do I decide?
We’ll price both paths and review age, repair history, comfort, and energy use. If replacement makes more sense, we’ll discuss options, financing, and timing.
Do you offer emergency service during heat waves or cold snaps?
Yes. We prioritize no-cool calls when temperatures spike and keep you updated on arrival windows.
How do I prevent repeat issues?
Regular maintenance, clean coils, proper filtration, and clear airflow around the outdoor unit go a long way toward ensuring efficient operation. We’ll provide a simple checklist before we leave.

The service technician was on time, he was so friendly and explained the entire system to me. I asked many questions. He was able to explain it all very easily and clearly. I felt like this was so excellent company to work with.
Ted C.
Upgraded a pair of single stage, builder-grade, split systems. DMD provided a range of clear and concise estimates for evaluating cost / comfort options. The bedroom and living area systems had separate and distinct features for maximum comfort and control. Both systems were installed and operational in less than two days and the results have been amazing. It was a pleasure working with DMD and their installation crews on my project.
Andy L.
The guys showed up immediately when I called and were there when promised and were extremely polite and knowledgeable got right to work and did a great job and left the house as if they were never here. I use them for my bi-yearly maintenance as well.
I would highly recommend this family owned business for all you A/C needs.

DMD Mechanical is our go to for all AC/HVAC. They never try to upsell and have told us we don't need what the competitors told us we needed. They have saved us time and money over the past 10 years. They alerted us to IID rebates to offset a recent purchase that we knew we needed and were putting off. Whether you need routine service or an evaluation on your current system or replacement of a system we strongly recommend DMD. Family owned business, honest, knowledgable and reputable. Thanks to Dan, Daniel and Nick.
Jack F.

Carly M.
Amazing customer service! I had a home warranty take 8 hours to schedule appointment during emergency when my air went out. And then 48 hours to get an appointment. I had to get my 3 dogs and child into hotel and whole event was so stressful. Dan got back to me immediately. He then helped me and gave suggestions and appointment within 24 hours. He came highly recommended from my friend and a breath of fresh air to have an honest, hard working, transparent air company. Nick showed up and such a positive attitude today! He was friendly, hard working, and knowledgeable. I am going to cancel the home warranty company and so thankful ! I highly recommend using! 😊.

DMD Mechanical came out the same day to fix our AC unit that wasn't working. Nick figured out the problem and had it fixed in an hour. Very reasonable pricing too. We've used DMD Mech for 10 years now and are always happy with the service.

Our home's main AC unit wasn't maintaining temperature overnight. Contacted Dan at DMD in the morning, service tech arrived two hours later, found the problem and system was restored. Living in La Quinta, CA with temps consistently over 115 degrees, a functioning AC system is critical and as always DMD responded immediately.

Jeff J.
DMD Mechanical was very responsive when we had our AC go out in La Quinta during the first real heat wave of the year. They got someone out right away to inspect the system and advise us. We chose to replace instead of attempting to repair a unit that was over 10 years old. They got the new system in and installed in just a few days. I highly recommend DMD Mechanical!

I own a short term rental in the area. My A/C broke down the day before guests were scheduled to check in. The house was very very hot. I found Dan online and told him my situation.

Mike W.
True professionals. Clean, Efficient and Fair. Highly recommend!
Karen P.
I met the owner and his son in line at a local restaurant. They were wearing t-shirts that advertised their business, and I hired them on the spot. That was 6 years ago, and they've been servicing my A/C units every year. They are family-owned, and really do great work at affordable pricing.
Lisa B.
Recently my air-conditioning unit stopped working. I called Dan at DMD and he had someone out that day to check it out. After they confirmed the issue, Dan had people ready to fix it the next day. During the whole issue, Dan and the men he sent were communicative, responsive, professional and friendly. I never felt unsafe with any of these men in my home. After repairing my air conditioning, Dan and Colten checked to make sure that everything was working well. Dan even checked again a few days later. I am completely satisfied with the work done by DMD. I highly recommend this company. Very honest. Very friendly. Very professional.
Rose J.

The DMD Mechanical service tech showed up on time for a scheduled seasonal cleaning of the outdoor condenser unit of my AC system to insure that it would continue to work efficiently, and also inspected the indoor filters while he was here.

Daniel R.
Nick was our technician and Daniel (the owner) came out to take a look at my mothers very old non functional Air system. Gave us an honest assessment and got it up and running after just a couple of hours. Only charge a small fee and gave us some reasonable estimates for a soon needed replacement. This was after a couple much larger companies gave outrageous quotes for replacement.
This company is honest and reliable and want to ensure you get a working system for a price you can afford. They’re local to the desert and don’t have any gimmicks to try and upscale you.
Great people to work with and they have earned a customer for life.
Kevin R.
We had a recent experience with another company that felt like a sales call. Dan & Daniel couldn’t have been more professional. They had both of our air conditioning units working in a short time at basically the rate of the service call. I would highly recommend them!
Kelly L.
Dan and his team came by later, after a VERY HOT DAY, to make sure they got a start on our system. They did not oversale and helped me to understand what I need to do to provide better maintanence, to my A/C units. They came by the next day, to ensure all was running well, and our upstairs has been very cool since then! Use them for your next A/C or heater dilemma!
Tara S.
Honest, fair, and reliable A++++
Rick O.
DMD did a great job installing a new AC unit for us. Dan and his son responded immediately to analyze the problem with our 21 year old system. They recommended a replacement unit which was installed within two days. Dan and son Daniel checked every element of the new system to make sure it was working perfectly. I highly recommend DMD. We are extremely satisfied with the quality, price, and performance of the new system.
