Our technicians are trained on all types of residential heating systems including gas furnaces, electric furnaces, heat pumps, and boilers.

Chicago averages 35 inches of snowfall and over 6,500 heating degree days per year (NOAA). The U.S. Department of Energy reports that heating accounts for 29% of a typical home's annual energy costs. A furnace operating at peak efficiency (90%+ AFUE) can save hundreds of dollars per year compared to an aging 60–70% AFUE unit.

The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that heating accounts for 29% of a typical home's energy bill. Chicago averages over 6,000 heating degree days per year — one of the highest in the Midwest. A properly maintained furnace operates at 90%+ AFUE efficiency; a neglected one can drop below 70%, costing hundreds more annually. Furnaces typically last 15–20 years.

Frequently Asked Questions — Furnace Repair Chicago

How much does furnace repair cost in Chicago?

HVAC service starts from $79, which includes up to 30-minute diagnostic. We give you a full quote before starting any repair.

Do you repair all furnace brands?

Yes. We service all major furnace brands including Carrier, Lennox, Trane, Rheem, York, Goodman, American Standard, Amana, and Bryant.

Is my furnace dangerous if it smells like gas?

Yes — a gas smell near your furnace is a serious safety issue. Leave the house immediately, don't operate any switches, and call your gas company. Once it's safe, call us to inspect and repair the source of the leak.

When should I replace vs repair my furnace?

If your furnace is over 15–20 years old and needs a major repair (heat exchanger, control board), replacement often makes more financial sense. We'll give you an honest recommendation based on the unit's age and condition.
