    Florida Heat Pump shuts down
    Am having a problem with our Florida Heat Pump. The heat cycle shuts down after about 90 seconds. If I switch the thermostat to cooling and let it run for about ten minutes then switch it back to heat, it runs fine. Any idea what the problem is?

    The fact it runs fine after switching to cooling is a puzzler. Just at a guess I'd say the reversing valve is sticking. How old is the equipment?
