Heat pump

Rob from Central Whangarei

can anyone suggest an honest Heat pump tech that will give a true appraisal of a heat pump efficiency. Many things are part of the Dark Arts when somewhat of a novice and any one can spin a yarn and pull in an extra quid. Ours is Two years old and never cycles.(heat, to off, to heat. ) Told at purchase. "That will do job" " We have ours on and never turn it off" Ours has never turned off except when turning it off manually. To get installer out costs $110plus, before sighting heat pump.
Warranties are nothing, unless an obvious breakdown. Smoke, or Fallen from Wall, The rest is easy money. Might have been sold a Pup. Just by saying that gives an opening for smoke screen. "The whats a ma jig has failed".
Ideas and suggestions. Thanks.
ooh If I direct a hair dryer in direction of thermostat, while machine is use, that should solve one Question.
