When your furnace breaks down in January, you need heat back the same day — not a sales pitch. Our technicians carry the parts that fix the majority of furnace breakdowns on the first visit:
A furnace tune-up in Chicago is cheap insurance against a January no-heat call. Most of the breakdowns we run in the dead of winter — dirty flame sensors, failing igniters, weak inducer motors — announce themselves in the fall, and a tune-up catches them while the fix is still small. Every Around the Town furnace tune-up includes:
The best time to schedule furnace maintenance is September or October, before the first cold snap fills the calendar — here’s when to schedule furnace maintenance in Chicago and what a furnace tune-up costs. Our maintenance agreements bundle the fall tune-up with priority winter scheduling, and our guide to keeping your HVAC system in shape for a Chicago winter covers what you can check yourself.

Bryant Legacy Series: High-efficiency option for quality-focused homeowners who want excellent performance without premium pricing.
Replacing a furnace is a big expense — financing options are available, and estimates on new installations are always free.
Furnace won’t turn on at all. Usually the thermostat, a tripped safety switch, or a failed control board. We check the simple causes first — many no-heat calls are fixed in under an hour.
Furnace starts, then shuts off after a few seconds. The classic short-cycle. Nine times out of ten it’s a dirty flame sensor; the fix is fast and inexpensive.
Blowing cold air. Could be a failed igniter, a gas supply issue, or a heat exchanger safety lockout. This one deserves a same-day diagnosis — some causes are harmless, one is serious.
Banging, screeching, or rumbling. Motors and bearings announce their failure before they quit. Catching it early is the difference between a part swap and an emergency call at 2 AM.
Dust or a burning smell from the vents. Often maintenance-related — we wrote up the causes in why your furnace might be kicking dust into your house.
Heating bills climbing every year. An aging single-stage furnace running at 80% efficiency costs real money in a Chicago winter. Sometimes repair is right; sometimes replacement pays for itself. We’ll show you the math on both.
Still heating with oil? We repair and service oil furnaces as well as gas and electric. An oil furnace needs a cleaning every year: a new nozzle and oil filter, a check of the burner and the electrodes, and a clean heat exchanger and flue. Skip it and the furnace soots up, burns more oil and eventually locks out. If yours has shut down, smells of oil or is leaving soot around the registers, call (312) 243-9896. Thinking about replacing an oil furnace? Estimates on new installations are free: request a free install estimate.
We install and repair gas garage heaters for home garages and workshops. On a repair call we check the igniter, the flame sensor, the gas valve, the venting and the thermostat. For a new heater we size the unit to the garage and run the gas line and the vent. See what a garage heater installation costs in Chicago.

We repair every major furnace brand sold in Chicago, and our trucks carry the common failure parts for the brands we see most:
Carrier furnace repair — one of our most-requested calls. Carrier and Bryant share engineering, so the parts we stock for our Bryant installs fix Carrier furnaces too — igniters, inducer motors, and control boards included.
Bryant — our preferred installation brand for over three decades. Nobody in Chicago knows them better.
Day & Night, Tempstar, Comfortmaker & Heil — ICP brands built on the same platform as Carrier. Same fixes, same parts, same day.
Goodman, Amana & Daikin — common in newer construction and rehabs across the city.
Lennox, Rheem, Ruud, Trane & York — all serviced, all week long.

How much does furnace repair cost in Chicago?
It depends on the part, but you’ll know the flat-rate price before we start any work — no hourly meter running. Common repairs like flame sensors and igniters are on the low end; motors and control boards cost more. If a repair doesn’t make sense, we’ll tell you. Full breakdown: how much furnace repair costs in Chicago.
Should I repair or replace my furnace?
Our rule of thumb: if the furnace is over 15 years old and the repair costs more than a third of a replacement, replacement usually wins — especially with a cracked heat exchanger. We give you an honest quote on both and financing options for new installs.
Do you service my brand?
Yes. We repair all major brands and stock parts for Carrier, Bryant, and the ICP family (Day & Night, Tempstar, Comfortmaker, Heil). New installations are Bryant.
