Complete San Carlos Heating Solutions

More Than Just Quick Fixes

Our furnace repair service includes complete system diagnostics, not just fixing the obvious problem. We check your thermostat calibration, inspect your ductwork connections, and test your system’s efficiency to catch potential issues before they become expensive emergencies.

You’ll receive a detailed explanation of what we found, what we fixed, and recommendations for keeping your furnace running smoothly. Many San Carlos homes have unique heating challenges due to age or layout, and we address those specific concerns.

Every repair comes with a warranty on parts and labor. We also offer preventive maintenance plans that catch small problems before they turn into middle-of-the-night emergencies, saving you money and stress in the long run.

How quickly can you repair my furnace in San Carlos?

We offer same-day furnace repair service for most calls received before 3 PM on weekdays. Emergency calls outside normal hours typically get next-day service, though we do provide 24/7 emergency service for heating failures during extremely cold weather. Our technicians stock common furnace parts in their trucks, which means most repairs can be completed during the first visit. The actual repair time depends on the specific problem, but most furnace repairs take 1-3 hours once we’ve diagnosed the issue and you’ve approved the work.

What does furnace repair cost in San Carlos?

Furnace repair costs vary depending on the specific problem and parts needed. Simple fixes like thermostat issues or clogged filters typically run $150-300, while more complex repairs involving heat exchangers or blower motors can range from $400-800. We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you’ll know exactly what you’re paying before we begin. Our diagnostic fee applies toward the repair cost if you choose to move forward with our service. We don’t believe in surprise charges or hidden fees.

Do you work on all types of furnaces?

Yes, our licensed technicians repair all major furnace types including gas, electric, and oil systems. We work on brands like Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, and many others commonly found in San Carlos homes. Whether you have a traditional furnace, heat pump, or high-efficiency condensing unit, we have the experience and tools to diagnose and repair your system. We also service both newer systems still under warranty and older units that other companies might not want to touch.

Should I repair or replace my old furnace?

This depends on your furnace’s age, condition, and repair history. Generally, if your furnace is over 15 years old and needs a major repair costing more than half the price of a new system, replacement makes more financial sense. We’ll give you honest advice based on your specific situation. Factors we consider include your current energy bills, how often you’ve needed repairs recently, and whether replacement parts are still readily available. We’ll never pressure you into a replacement if a repair is the better choice for your budget and needs.

Do you offer emergency furnace repair service?

Yes, we provide emergency furnace repair service, especially during San Carlos’s cooler months when heating failures can’t wait. While Bay Area winters aren’t extreme, we understand that a broken furnace means uncomfortable nights and potential safety concerns. We prioritize emergency calls when temperatures drop significantly or when you have young children, elderly family members, or health conditions that make heat essential. Emergency service rates apply for after-hours calls, but we’ll always discuss pricing upfront so you can make an informed decision.

How can I prevent future furnace problems?

Regular maintenance is the best way to prevent unexpected furnace breakdowns. Change your air filter every 1-3 months depending on your home’s conditions, keep vents and registers clear of furniture and debris, and schedule annual professional tune-ups before heating season begins. During our repairs, we’ll point out any maintenance issues we notice and show you simple things you can do to extend your furnace’s life. Many furnace problems we see in San Carlos homes could have been prevented with basic maintenance and early attention to warning signs like unusual noises or inconsistent heating.
