Complete Furnace Repair Services

What's Included in Every Repair

Every furnace repair includes complete system diagnosis, not just fixing the obvious problem. We check safety controls, test airflow, inspect heat exchangers, and verify proper operation of all components.

You get quality replacement parts when needed, proper installation, and testing to ensure everything works correctly. We also identify potential issues that could cause problems later, so you can plan ahead instead of dealing with surprise breakdowns.

South San Francisco’s coastal climate creates specific challenges for heating systems. Salt air affects metal components differently than inland areas. We stock parts that hold up well in Bay Area conditions and know which repairs tend to last longest in this environment.

How much does furnace repair cost in South San Francisco?

Furnace repair costs depend on what’s wrong with your system. Simple fixes like replacing a thermostat or cleaning flame sensors typically run $150-300. More complex repairs involving blower motors, heat exchangers, or control boards range from $400-1200. We provide upfront pricing after diagnosing the problem, so you know exactly what you’ll pay before work begins. No hidden fees or surprise charges – the price we quote is what you pay.
Most furnace repairs take 1-3 hours depending on the problem and parts availability. Simple issues like thermostat problems or clogged filters can be fixed in under an hour. More involved repairs like replacing blower motors or control boards typically take 2-3 hours. If we need to order special parts, we’ll get your furnace running temporarily when possible, then return to complete the permanent repair. We always give you a realistic timeframe upfront.
Yes, we provide same-day furnace repair service in South San Francisco when you call before 3 PM on weekdays. We stock common repair parts on our trucks and prioritize heating emergencies, especially during cold weather. If your furnace stops working completely, we’ll do everything possible to restore heat the same day. For non-emergency repairs, we typically schedule within 24-48 hours at your convenience.
The most common furnace problems we see in South San Francisco are dirty flame sensors, failed ignitors, and clogged air filters – often caused by our coastal air conditions. Blower motor issues are also frequent, especially in older systems. Salt air affects metal components over time, leading to corrosion in heat exchangers and electrical connections. Many homes also have thermostat problems or ductwork issues that affect heating performance. Regular maintenance can prevent most of these problems from turning into expensive repairs.
Generally, if your furnace is under 15 years old and the repair costs less than half the price of replacement, repair makes sense. Warning signs that replacement might be better include frequent breakdowns, rising energy bills, uneven heating, or major component failures like cracked heat exchangers. Age matters too – furnaces over 20 years old often need replacement even for moderate repairs. We’ll give you honest advice about whether repair or replacement makes more financial sense for your specific situation.
Yes, all our furnace repairs come with a warranty on both parts and labor. Parts warranties vary by manufacturer but typically range from 1-5 years. Our labor is warranted for one full year from the repair date. If the same problem happens again within the warranty period, we’ll fix it at no charge. We also guarantee our workmanship – if something we installed fails due to improper installation, we’ll make it right. You get written warranty information with every completed repair.
