Our Furnace Repair Process

Straightforward Repairs, No Surprises

When you call, we schedule a time that works for your schedule, usually same-day for emergencies. Our technician arrives with diagnostic equipment and a truck stocked with common furnace parts.

First, we run a complete diagnostic to identify the actual problem, not just the obvious symptoms. Many furnace issues have underlying causes that create bigger problems if you only fix the surface issue.

Once we know what’s wrong, we explain the problem in plain terms and give you an upfront price for the repair. No work starts until you approve the cost. Most repairs are completed during the same visit, and we test everything thoroughly before we leave to make sure your heating system is running properly.

Complete Furnace Repair Coverage

Every Repair Includes Full Service

Every furnace repair comes with comprehensive diagnostics, not just a quick fix for the obvious problem. We check your entire heating system to catch potential issues before they become expensive emergencies.

You get quality replacement parts that match or exceed your original equipment specifications. We don’t use cheap alternatives that fail quickly. All repairs include a warranty on both parts and labor, so you’re protected if anything goes wrong.

We also provide honest guidance about your furnace’s overall condition. If your system is nearing the end of its useful life, we’ll let you know what to expect and help you plan accordingly. If it’s worth repairing, we’ll make sure the repair extends your furnace’s lifespan as much as possible.

How quickly can you repair my furnace in Foster City?

We offer same-day furnace repair service for most emergency calls in Foster City. If you call before noon, we can usually have a technician to your home within a few hours. For non-emergency repairs, we typically schedule within 24-48 hours. Our technicians carry common furnace parts in their trucks, so most repairs are completed during the first visit without waiting for special orders or return trips.

What does furnace repair cost in Foster City?

Furnace repair costs vary depending on the specific problem, but we provide upfront pricing before any work begins. Simple repairs like thermostat replacement or ignitor issues typically run $150-$400. More complex problems involving blower motors, heat exchangers, or control boards can range from $400-$1,200. We never add surprise charges or hidden fees to your bill, and all pricing includes parts, labor, and our warranty coverage.

Should I repair or replace my old furnace?

This depends on your furnace’s age, condition, and the cost of needed repairs. If your furnace is under 10 years old and the repair costs less than half the price of replacement, repair usually makes sense. For furnaces over 15 years old with major component failures, replacement often provides better long-term value. We’ll give you an honest assessment of your furnace’s condition and help you understand the costs and benefits of both options without pushing you toward the more expensive choice.

Do you warranty your furnace repair work?

Yes, all furnace repairs come with a comprehensive warranty covering both parts and labor. The warranty period depends on the specific repair, but most components are covered for at least 90 days, with many parts carrying manufacturer warranties of one year or more. If the same problem occurs during the warranty period, we’ll return and fix it at no additional charge. This warranty gives you confidence that the repair will last and protects your investment.

What furnace brands do you repair in Foster City?

We repair all major furnace brands including Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, American Standard, York, and Payne. Our technicians have experience with both newer high-efficiency models and older furnace systems common in Foster City homes. We maintain relationships with parts suppliers for all these brands, so we can usually source replacement components quickly. Whether you have a standard gas furnace or a high-efficiency condensing unit, we have the expertise to diagnose and repair it properly.

What should I do if my furnace stops working completely?

First, check your thermostat settings and replace the batteries if needed. Make sure your furnace switch is on and check your electrical panel for tripped breakers. Look at your furnace filter – a severely clogged filter can cause the system to shut down. If these basic steps don’t solve the problem, call us for emergency service. Don’t attempt to repair gas furnace components yourself, as this can create safety hazards. We can diagnose the problem safely and get your heating system running again quickly.
