FAQs

What qualifies as an urgent furnace repair, and how quickly can you reach my home in Shelbyville?

Any situation where your furnace will not start, is blowing cold air, is making loud unfamiliar noises, emits a burning or gas odor, or repeatedly cycles on and off is considered urgent. Because we are based in Shelbyville, our on-call technicians can usually be at your door within 60–90 minutes, day or night, including weekends and holidays. We keep fully stocked service vehicles so most issues can be fixed on the first visit.

Do you provide 24/7 emergency service, and is there an extra charge for nights or weekends?

Yes. Our dispatch center is staffed around the clock, and technicians are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. There is a small after-hours diagnostic fee to cover overtime labor, but we waive that fee if you authorize the recommended repair during the same visit. All pricing is quoted up front, so you will never be surprised by hidden costs.

How much does an urgent furnace repair usually cost?

Costs vary with the problem’s complexity and the parts required. A standard diagnostic visit starts at $89 during regular hours or $129 after hours. Common repairs such as igniter replacements or flame-sensor cleaning usually range from $150–$350 total. More extensive fixes—like blower motor or control board replacement—can run $400–$900. We provide a firm written estimate before any work begins and accept major credit cards and financing for larger repairs.

What furnace brands and HVAC systems can your technicians service?

Our NATE-certified technicians are trained to repair all major brands sold in Shelbyville, including Trane, Lennox, Carrier, Rheem, Goodman, Bryant, York, and American Standard. We service gas, electric, propane, and oil furnaces, as well as hybrid systems, heat pumps, and packaged heating and cooling units. We maintain a broad parts inventory to minimize downtime.

What can I safely do while waiting for the technician if my furnace stops working?

1) Verify that your thermostat is set to "Heat" and batteries (if any) are good. 2) Check the circuit breaker or furnace switch to ensure power is on. 3) Inspect your furnace filter; a clogged filter can cause shutdowns—replace it if dirty. 4) If you smell gas, turn off the furnace, evacuate everyone, and call us and your gas utility from outside the house. Avoid attempting internal repairs; modern furnaces have sensitive electronics best handled by a professional.

How can I prevent future emergency furnace breakdowns?

Schedule an annual furnace tune-up each fall, which includes cleaning burners, checking safety controls, lubricating motors, testing airflow, and tightening electrical connections. Replace or clean the air filter every 1–3 months. Keep supply and return vents unblocked, and maintain at least two feet of clearance around the furnace. Enrolling in our Comfort Club maintenance plan provides two seasonal inspections, priority service, and discounts on any repairs, significantly reducing the likelihood of unexpected failures.
