The price of furnace repair can vary depending on a number of factors including the part that needs to be repaired or replaced, whether your heating system is still covered under warranty and if you have any type of maintenance or protection plan.

Part Replacement Costs

The cost of furnace repair is mostly impacted by the part that needs to be replaced. Certain parts, like a cracked heat exchanger, can be extremely expensive to replace. For example, when a heat exchanger cracks, it often makes more financial sense to upgrade the whole heating system. Other times, the replacement part doesn’t cost much, making furnace repair extremely affordable.

Manufacturer Warranty

All furnaces come with a warranty from the manufacturer that covers the cost of certain furnace parts for a limited amount of time. If you require furnace repair during the warranty period, the cost of the replacement part could be covered by the manufacturer. It’s important to note that labour costs are not included in a manufacturer warranty.

Protection Plan

Many heating and cooling companies offer protection plans that can include discounts on repairs, priority service and also include a yearly inspection. With the right protection plan, furnace repair costs can be significantly decreased.

It’s hard to give an estimate on how much furnace repair will cost because there are a number of variables including the part that needs to replaced, whether the heating system is still under manufacturer warranty and if you have a protection plan. That’s why it’s important to work with a trusted heating and cooling company that will give you an honest assessment of your system and provide quality service with fair pricing.
