What’s Included & What Affects Price
Every furnace repair includes:
- Full system diagnostic (our $279 minimum labor covers this)
- All parts sourced same-day from Tampa supply houses
- 1-year labor warranty, manufacturer parts warranty passed through
- Clean, respectful work — shoe covers, drop cloths, no mess left behind
- Written summary of work performed
Common Tampa furnace issues:
- Thermocouple failure — gas furnace won’t light or won’t stay lit ($279)
- Pilot light out — common after gas supply interruptions
- Heat strip failure (electric/heat pump) — blowing cool air when heat is called
- Capacitor — same capacitor role as AC; fails from age and cycling
- Control board — intermittent failures, displays error codes
Factors that affect price:
- Brand + model — some OEM parts cost 20-40% more than universal
- Access — attic installs, tight spaces add labor time
- System age/condition — older systems often need cascading repairs
- Tampa-specific — humidity, hard water, and salt air accelerate wear
What we never do:
- ❌ Charge separate diagnostic fees on top of repair
- ❌ Recommend unnecessary replacements
- ❌ After-hours or weekend surcharges
Frequently Asked Questions
Gas furnace, electric furnace, or heat pump in Tampa?
Most Tampa homes use heat pumps (same system as cooling). Few have gas furnaces. Repair pricing is similar for all three — the part differs, labor tier is similar.
Pilot light keeps going out?
Thermocouple or thermopile failure. $279 to replace. If it keeps happening, could be gas supply pressure issue (we check).
Furnace blowing cold air?
Heat pump: possibly low refrigerant or defrost cycle. Gas furnace: thermocouple or gas supply. Heat strips (electric): check breaker first, then call.
Do you work on older furnaces?
Yes. We repair 1990s-era furnaces if parts are available. When parts become unobtainable (often on 30+ year units), replacement is required.
Why is my furnace smelling bad?
First heating season of the year = dust burning off elements, normal and will pass in 1-2 hours. Ongoing gas smell = LEAVE THE HOUSE and call the gas company + us.
