Heat pumps fail differently than standard AC or furnace systems, and diagnosing them requires understanding the reversing valve and defrost board specifically.
A heat pump stuck in one mode, or one that's iced over and won't defrost, gets diagnosed with the right tools for that specific failure mode.
A heat pump that seems to be 'not heating' is often actually a reversing valve or defrost cycle problem, which a technician trained mainly on standard ac systems can easily misdiagnose, which is exactly why heat pump repair calls in Marengo, OH get treated with urgency, not a next-available-Tuesday slot.

Ductless heat pump in the addition threw a code I couldn't find anywhere online.

Often a stuck reversing valve, which controls whether the system is in heating or cooling mode.
Some frost during a normal defrost cycle is expected; ice that never clears points to a defrost board or thermostat fault.
Heat pumps have a reversing valve, defrost cycle, and often auxiliary heat strips that standard AC systems don't have.
Heat pumps naturally work harder as outdoor temperatures drop, and auxiliary heat should engage below a certain threshold.
These systems have their own fault-code patterns that our techs are trained to read.
