- Type of furnace: Gas, electric, and oil furnaces have different repair cost ranges due to their components. Generally, electric units are cheaper to fix than oil furnaces.
- Labor costs: Expect hourly rates for HVAC technicians in the Philadelphia area to be between $50 and $150. Emergency service after hours or on weekends will cost more.
- System age: An older furnace that needs a major repair might be better off being replaced, especially if the repair cost is more than half the price of a new unit.
- Minor repairs: Simple issues like a malfunctioning thermostat or a dirty flame sensor can often be resolved for $150 to $300. A quick fix like replacing a dirty filter is even cheaper.
- Blower motor issues: This part circulates warm air throughout your home. A repair might cost between $400 and $600, but a full replacement can be over $1,500.
- Ignitor replacement: The ignitor is a frequently failing part. A replacement typically costs between $150 and $250, but emergency service can push that up to $500.
- Cracked heat exchanger: This is a serious, expensive problem, as it can leak carbon monoxide. While some repairs are possible, a replacement is often necessary, costing anywhere from $1,500 to $3,500.
- Save money with preventative maintenance: To avoid expensive, emergency repairs during Philadelphia's cold winters, invest in regular maintenance. An annual tune-up can cost as little as $80 to $200 and helps catch small problems before they escalate. Regularly changing your air filter every 1 to 3 months is another simple step that significantly improves efficiency and prevents issues.
