Frequently Asked Questions

Should I repair or replace my furnace?

The 50% rule helps: if repair costs more than 50% of a new furnace AND the unit is over 15 years old, replace it. New furnaces are 90-98% efficient vs 60-80% for older units, saving hundreds per year.

Why is my furnace blowing cold air?

Common causes: dirty air filter, thermostat set to 'fan' instead of 'auto', pilot light out, ignitor failure, or gas supply issue. Check the simple things first before calling a technician.

Why does furnace repair cost different in Norfolk than other cities?

Norfolk's costs reflect local labor rates driven by the diversified economy, varied climate conditions that affect materials and scheduling, and moderate permitting requirements. The balanced labor market also influences competitive pricing.
