FAQs
What does “upfront pricing” mean for heat repair in Monterey?
Upfront pricing means you receive a firm, itemized quote before any work begins. Once our technician diagnoses the heating issue, you’ll see the exact labor rate, parts cost, taxes, and any applicable discounts in writing. There are no hidden fees or surprise add-ons when the job is finished—what we quote is what you pay.
How quickly can you get a technician to my Monterey home for heater repair?
We offer same-day service for most Monterey Peninsula addresses and 24/7 emergency response for no-heat situations. When you call before noon on a normal business day, we can typically arrive within a 2–4-hour window. For after-hours or weekend emergencies, a dispatcher will route the nearest on-call technician and give you an ETA before you commit to service.
What types of heating systems do you repair?
Our EPA-certified technicians service gas furnaces, electric furnaces, heat pumps, ductless mini-splits, and hydronic (boiler) heating systems commonly found in Monterey homes. We work on all major brands—Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Daikin, Mitsubishi, and more—and carry a broad inventory of OEM and universal replacement parts on our service vehicles for faster repairs.
How much will a typical heat repair cost?
Prices vary by part and labor time, but most common repairs—such as igniter replacement, blower motor repair, or thermostat replacement—range from $180 to $650 total. Larger repairs like heat-exchanger replacement can exceed $1,000. With our upfront pricing model, you’ll see the exact figure before choosing to proceed, and we honor that quote for 30 days.
Do you offer any warranties or guarantees on heat repair work?
Yes. All repairs include a 1-year parts and labor warranty, and many OEM parts carry longer manufacturer warranties. In addition, every service is backed by our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee: if the same issue recurs within 30 days, we’ll return and fix it at no additional cost.
How can I prevent future heating breakdowns?
Regular maintenance is the best defense. We recommend a tune-up each fall that includes cleaning burners or coils, checking gas pressure and electrical connections, lubricating moving parts, and calibrating the thermostat. Our Monterey Comfort Club plan bundles the annual tune-up with priority scheduling, a 15% repair discount, and an extended labor warranty for one low monthly fee.
