Furnace repair, replacement and heating service
When the house is getting cold, heating stops being a comfort issue. We answer 24/7, diagnose accurately, and quote before we touch anything.
No heat?
What we do on a no-heat call
Most no-heat calls come down to a handful of causes, and a good technician finds them fast rather than swapping parts hoping something sticks.
- Ignition and flame sensing — dirty flame sensors and failed igniters are the single most common failure we see.
- Pressure switches and venting — blocked or iced intake and exhaust piping, common after heavy snow.
- Blower motors and capacitors — the furnace fires but no air moves.
- Control boards and limit switches — short-cycling, lockouts and repeat error codes.
- Gas valves and heat exchangers — safety-critical, and we will always tell you honestly if a heat exchanger has failed.
- Thermostats and wiring — sometimes it really is the cheap fix, and we will say so.
Furnace replacement & installation
High-efficiency furnaces sized to your home with a proper heat-loss calculation — not a guess based on what was there before. Free written estimate.
Annual heating maintenance
A fall service catches the failing igniter, the cracked hose and the plugged filter before the heating season. Keeps your warranty valid too.
Repair or replace
How to decide, without a sales pitch
There is no universal answer, but there is a useful framework. Here is the one we actually use on site.
| Age of furnace | What usually makes sense | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Under 10 years | Repair | Well within its service life. A single repair is far cheaper than replacing a unit with a decade left in it. |
| 10–15 years | Depends on the repair | A minor repair is worth it. A major component — blower motor, control board, heat exchanger — is worth pricing against a replacement. |
| 15–20 years | Usually replace | Older units run at much lower efficiency. The monthly gas saving on a modern high-efficiency furnace starts paying back the difference right away. |
| Any age, cracked heat exchanger | Replace | This is a carbon-monoxide safety issue, not an efficiency one. We will not patch around it. |
We will give you both numbers — repair cost and replacement cost — and let you make the call. If your unit has good years left, we will say so.
Sizing
Sizing is the part nobody ever sees
A furnace that feels perfectly adequate in mild weather can fall behind on the coldest nights if it was never sized against a real heat-loss calculation for your house — its square footage, insulation, windows and air sealing. Most replacements are sized by looking at what was there before, which just repeats whatever mistake was made last time.
Oversizing is just as costly a mistake as undersizing. A furnace that is too large short-cycles: it blasts, satisfies the thermostat, shuts off, and repeats. That means uneven temperatures between rooms, more wear on ignition components, and higher bills for worse comfort.
We size properly, vent properly, and commission the system before we leave — checking gas pressure, temperature rise and static pressure so the unit runs the way the manufacturer intended.
Signs your furnace needs attention
- Rooms that never quite reach the thermostat setting
- Short cycling — on and off every few minutes
- Banging, screeching or rumbling on start-up
- A gas bill that climbed with no change in habits
- A yellow or flickering burner flame instead of steady blue
- The carbon monoxide alarm has gone off, ever
- The unit is past 15 and has never been serviced
If your CO alarm sounds, leave the building and call the gas emergency line first. Then call us.
