How Michael & Son determines your repair quote

  • We look at what's wrong with the unit. The factor that will likely have the biggest impact on the cost of your furnace repair is the parts that need to be repaired. Of course, the more expensive the part is, the more your repair will cost.
  • We estimate the amount of time for a job. Once your tech has identified the problem with the furnace, they'll tally up the estimated work hours and the cost of all replacement parts. The more work needed for a repair will require more labor, costing you more for your repair. For example, replacing the coils inside your furnace could take up to 4 hours. While repairing an ignitor, one of the more common issues on a furnace may require only an hour to fix.
  • We look at the status of a system's warranties. If your furnace’s manufacturer’s warranty is still valid, your repair will cost less. Check with the manufacturer of your furnace. Usually, the warranty lasts up to 10 years and covers certain parts and repair costs. Remember that a manufacturer’s warranty may not cover the labor cost.

FAQs

Furnace Repair Frequently Asked Questions

  • Your troubleshooting should change based on the issue. If your furnace:

    • Won't turn on: Check the thermostat settings, the furnace power switch, and your circuit breakers.
    • Is blowing cold air: Clean your flame sensor.
    • Is short-cycling: Clean or replace the air filters.

    Any other issues or causes should be taken care of by a professional.

  • On average, your furnace will last from 15 to 20 years. You can help extend this lifespan by scheduling regular maintenance visits, changing the air filters every three months, and running the furnace responsibly.

  • Consider the $5,000 HVAC rule — multiply the age of your furnace by the cost of the repair. If it's less than $5,000, then repairing it is most likely the best option. If it's over $5,000, then repairing it might be a waste of money.

  • Keep an eye out for:

    • Short-cycling (when your furnace keeps turning on and off)
    • Loud banging noises while it's running
    • Burning smells near the furnace or your vents
    • Uneven heating throughout your home.
  • The most expensive part of the furnace is the heat exchanger. If yours breaks, you may need to pay between $1,000 and $3,000 to get a new one.

    Other expensive parts include the blower motor, the control circuit board, and the gas valve.
