Emergency Furnace Replacement
Sometimes, even an emergency repair can’t save your furnace. If your system is old, inefficient, or beyond repair, a full replacement might be the best option for long-term comfort and cost savings.
Signs you might need an emergency furnace replacement
Age: Furnaces typically last 10-15 years. If yours is nearing or exceeding that age, and facing frequent repairs, replacement might be more cost-effective.
Extensive damage: Major component failures or safety hazards often warrant replacement over extensive repairs.
High energy bills: An aging furnace can be inefficient, leading to skyrocketing energy costs. Replacing it with a high-efficiency model can save you money in the long run.

The cost of furnace repair can vary depending on the specific problem, furnace type, and parts needed. In general, expect to pay between $150 and $300 for minor repairs, with the possibility of reaching $1,200 or more for extensive repairs.
Homeowner's insurance typically covers sudden and accidental damage to your furnace. However, it usually doesn't cover wear and tear or routine maintenance. It's always best to check your specific policy wording or contact your insurance provider to be sure.
This depends on several factors, including the age and condition of your furnace, the severity of the repair, and the cost of repairs compared to furnace replacement. Generally, a furnace over 15 years old or with frequent repairs might be a candidate for replacement. Our Oxbow Heating & Cooling technicians can assess your furnace and advise you on the best course of action.
