FAQs
How can I tell whether my gas furnace in Ocoee needs professional repair or a full replacement?
Some warning signs—such as short-cycling, loud banging or whistling noises, persistent gas odor, or a sudden spike in your utility bill—usually indicate that a component (igniter, blower motor, flame sensor) needs repair. If your furnace is 15–20 years old, has required repeated service calls within the past two winters, or has a cracked heat exchanger, replacement is often more cost-effective and safer. Our technicians will perform a detailed heat-load calculation, inspect combustion efficiency, and provide a clear repair-vs-replace estimate so you can make an informed decision.
What kinds of heating systems do you service in the Ocoee area?
We work on all major brands of natural-gas and propane furnaces, dual-fuel (hybrid) systems, heat pumps with supplemental gas heat, and package gas/electric rooftop units commonly installed in Florida homes. In addition, we repair and maintain blower assemblies, electronic ignition systems, smart thermostats, and indoor air quality add-ons like humidifiers and UV lights.
Do you offer 24/7 emergency furnace repair, and how quickly can you get to my home?
Yes. Even though Ocoee’s winters are mild, a cold front can still cause indoor temperatures to drop quickly. We have technicians on call 24/7, 365 days a year. For emergencies called in before midnight, average arrival time is 2 hours or less within the 34761 ZIP code and surrounding West Orange County neighborhoods. Our trucks carry common OEM parts, so most no-heat situations are resolved on the first visit.
How much does a typical gas furnace repair cost in Ocoee?
Prices vary with the part and labor involved, but most common repairs fall between $160 and $650. For example, replacing a flame sensor or pressure switch averages $160–$250; a new draft inducer motor runs $350–$500; and a variable-speed blower motor replacement can be $450–$650. After our diagnostic ($89, waived with repair), you’ll receive a flat-rate quote before any work begins, so there are no surprises.
What can I do to improve my furnace’s efficiency and lower energy bills?
1) Replace or clean the return-air filter every 30–60 days during heating season; 2) Keep supply and return vents unobstructed by furniture or rugs; 3) Install a programmable or Wi-Fi thermostat and lower the setpoint 3–5°F when you’re asleep or away; 4) Schedule an annual professional tune-up before November—our techs will calibrate gas pressure, clean burners, check heat exchanger integrity, and lubricate motors to keep AFUE performance high; 5) Seal attic and wall penetrations and ensure your home’s ductwork is leak-free to reduce warm-air losses.
What maintenance tasks should I handle myself between professional service visits?
Besides filter changes, pour a cup of diluted vinegar into the condensate drain line every three months to prevent clogs, vacuum around the furnace cabinet to keep dust out, and visually inspect the exhaust vent outside your home for blockages like leaves or nests. If you have a heat pump with gas backup, rinse the outdoor coil with a gentle garden-hose spray to remove debris. Never attempt to adjust gas valves or burner assemblies yourself—leave those to a licensed HVAC professional.
