Common Questions

Furnace Maintenance FAQ

Everything Charlotte homeowners need to know about furnace maintenance

How much does furnace maintenance cost in Charlotte?

A one-time furnace tune-up costs $149 in Charlotte. Our annual maintenance plans start at $240/year and include priority scheduling, 15% off repairs, and safety inspections. Regular maintenance prevents 85% of breakdowns and maintains efficiency.

Do I really need furnace maintenance in Charlotte's mild winters?

Absolutely! While Charlotte winters are mild, furnaces sit idle 8+ months and need annual inspection for safety (carbon monoxide risks) and efficiency. Skipping maintenance voids warranties and increases breakdown risk when you need heat most.

What's included in furnace maintenance?

Our comprehensive service includes: heat exchanger inspection, carbon monoxide testing, burner cleaning, filter replacement, thermostat calibration, gas pressure testing, safety controls check, and full performance report. We catch problems before they become expensive or dangerous.

When should I schedule furnace maintenance in Charlotte?

October-November is ideal, before heating season. This gives time to address issues before cold weather. Waiting until your furnace doesn't work means paying emergency rates. Maintenance plan members get priority scheduling.

Will maintenance prevent breakdowns?

Yes! Studies show annual maintenance prevents 85% of furnace breakdowns. Common failures like ignition issues, limit switch problems, and filter clogs are caught during maintenance. Charlotte homeowners who skip maintenance spend 3x more on emergency repairs.

Is the safety inspection really necessary?

Critical! Furnaces produce carbon monoxide—a deadly, odorless gas. Cracked heat exchangers, poor venting, and incomplete combustion create CO risks. We test for CO, inspect for cracks, and ensure safe operation. This alone justifies maintenance cost.

Do you service all furnace brands?

Yes! We service all major brands: Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, Bryant, York, and more. We service what we sell and what others sell. 25+ years combined experience with Charlotte HVAC systems.

How long does furnace maintenance take?

A thorough tune-up takes 60-90 minutes. We don't rush—proper maintenance requires time to inspect heat exchangers, test CO levels, check gas pressure, and ensure safe operation. Quick 30-minute "tune-ups" from discount companies miss critical safety issues.

What if you find a problem during maintenance?

We'll explain the issue, show you if possible, and provide upfront pricing for repairs. You decide whether to fix now or later. No high-pressure sales. Maintenance plan members get 15% off repairs and no diagnostic fees.

Will skipping maintenance void my warranty?

Many manufacturers require annual professional maintenance for warranty coverage. If your furnace fails and you can't prove regular service, they may deny claims. Our maintenance includes documentation to protect your warranty.

Can I just change the filter myself?

Filters help, but they don't address safety issues like carbon monoxide, cracked heat exchangers, or gas leaks. Professional maintenance catches problems you can't see or test for. Charlotte building codes recommend annual professional service.

Do you offer maintenance plans?

Yes! Our maintenance plan costs $240/year and includes: 2 comprehensive tune-ups (spring and fall), priority scheduling, 15% off repairs, no diagnostic fees, and transferable benefits. It's the best way to protect your investment and ensure safety.

What happens if my furnace breaks down between visits?

Maintenance plan members get priority scheduling and no diagnostic fees on repairs. While maintenance prevents 85% of breakdowns, we're here to help if issues arise. Plus, save 15% on repairs.

Do you work on gas and electric furnaces?

Yes! We service gas (natural gas and propane) and electric furnaces and heat pumps. Learn about gas vs electric furnaces. Our technicians are licensed for gas work as required by North Carolina law.
