This is one of the earlier GeoSpring units, and its age is the main service consideration. Control parts for the first hybrid generations are increasingly hard to source, so a fair assessment includes whether the part exists before any work is quoted.
Owner maintenance is the filter, clearances and the condensate path. Everything else, including any decision about replacement, should involve a licensed trade: the unit combines a 240V supply, stored hot water and a sealed refrigerant circuit.
