Complete Furnace Repair Solutions

What's Included in Every Service

Every furnace repair includes a complete system diagnostic, not just a quick look at the obvious problem. This catches potential issues before they leave you without heat again next month.

You get quality replacement parts with manufacturer warranties, professional installation, and thorough testing. We also clean up completely and explain any maintenance recommendations to keep your system running smoothly.

Palo Alto’s climate means your furnace doesn’t run constantly like systems in colder regions, but when you need it, it needs to work perfectly. That’s why we focus on reliability and efficiency, not just getting it running again.

Most furnace repairs in Palo Alto are completed the same day you call. We stock common parts for all major furnace brands on our service trucks, so there’s usually no waiting for parts to arrive. Emergency repairs are available 24/7 because heating problems don’t follow business hours. The actual repair time depends on what’s wrong, but typical issues like faulty ignitors, blower motor problems, or thermostat issues are usually fixed within 1-2 hours once we arrive.
Furnace repair costs vary based on what’s actually broken, but you’ll know the exact price before any work begins. Simple repairs like thermostat replacement typically run $150-300, while more complex issues like heat exchanger problems can cost $800-1500. We provide upfront pricing with no hidden fees or surprise charges. Most repairs fall somewhere in the middle range, and we’ll always explain your options if multiple solutions are available.
Yes, our technicians are trained on all major furnace brands including Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, and others commonly found in Palo Alto homes. We service both gas and electric furnaces, as well as heat pumps and hybrid systems. Whether you have a standard furnace, high-efficiency unit, or older system, we have the experience and parts to get it running properly. We also understand the unique requirements of different home types in Palo Alto, from mid-century modern to newer construction.
This depends on your furnace’s age, condition, and repair history. Generally, if your furnace is under 10 years old, repair makes sense. If it’s 15+ years old and needs expensive repairs, replacement might be more cost-effective long-term. We’ll give you honest advice about whether repair or replacement makes more sense for your situation. Factors include the repair cost compared to replacement cost, your furnace’s efficiency rating, and how often you’ve needed repairs recently. We never pressure you toward the more expensive option.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency furnace repair service in Palo Alto. While our area doesn’t get extremely cold, even a few chilly nights without heat can be uncomfortable, especially for families with young children or elderly residents. Emergency service is available for complete system failures, gas leaks, or other urgent heating problems. Emergency calls do include additional fees for after-hours service, but we’ll explain all costs upfront before dispatching a technician to your home.
Regular maintenance is the best way to prevent unexpected furnace breakdowns. Change your air filter every 1-3 months depending on usage and filter type. Keep the area around your furnace clear of storage items and debris. Schedule annual professional maintenance to catch small issues before they become expensive repairs. During maintenance, we check all system components, clean essential parts, and test safety features. Many furnace problems we see could have been prevented with regular filter changes and annual tune-ups.
