"I was told that the fee to simply come into my house to assess my furnace (that was not working) would be $260 on a Wednesday afternoon... and I was told this fee would not be absorbed into the work if I chose to have it done. If this company charges such an exorbitant assessment fee, I could only believe they would inflate other fees as well. I hired another local company for half that fee to assess then repair my furnace. Shame on Heritage Home Service."

"He reattached the air condition hose to the vent but never came back with the part he said I needed and would not return my calls. He never finished the job. I hired someone else to complete his work. Beware."

- Closely follow the average True Cost Rate furnished on the Homeowners section of Home Advisor for labor costs - Show up on time and give up front estimates - Focus on service work and limited multi-day projects so my schedule remains fluid - Advocate on the customer's behalf shopping for best prices on quality materials and best practices to get jobs done to code at the best rate possible

"We had an issue with a Dry Well periodically backing up. Damian and the D Day Plumbing team were very professional and knowledgeable and provided an estimate with a couple different options and their related costs. They installed a new utility sink, sink pump, and needed piping and valves with tie ins to the main septic. They made improvement above and beyond the initial job breakdown, all the while staying within budget. I will certainly consider them again for any future work. Thank you Damian and the D Day Plumbing Team for a job very done!"

Furnace Repair questions, answered by experts

Replacing an evaporator coil is a complex task that requires professional HVAC knowledge and tools. It also involves handling refrigerants and intricate system components. DIY attempts can lead to safety issues, damage to your HVAC system, and voided warranties.

Hiring a local HVAC company to do the job for you is the only option in these scenarios. So, save yourself the high energy bill and sweat and leave this job to the professionals.

Furnaces struggle to heat homes for a variety of reasons. For example, during an extended cold streak, your furnace could have a hard time producing enough heat to keep your house comfortable simply because it’s too cold outside. In other cases, your furnace might be the wrong size for your home or simply be overdue for replacement. A dirty filter or broken thermostat could also lead to a lagging furnace.

HVAC quotes may be negotiable. It’s important to be upfront about what you need, your budget, and your expectations. However, your contractor must suggest repairs or the system they think is best for you, and those things may not be negotiable. So, when can you negotiate an HVAC quote? When installing a new system, you may not need to replace ductwork or install specialty items such as whole-home air purifiers. If your contractor is bidding on those items or others you don’t need or want, ask them for a quote on only the equipment and services you need.

There are many reasons a furnace can make a banging noise, which also means there are a few potential solutions. The banging noise could be caused by expanding and contracting metal due to temperature changes, dirty burners, or loose ducts. To help with the banging, clean the burners, secure any loose ductwork, or check for pressure issues in the air ducts. If the noise persists, you should hire an HVAC professional for an inspection.

Since furnaces have many intricate parts, it's hard to know what might need repairs, so it's essential to contact a furnace repair specialist if your system breaks. Some common furnace problems that require repair include: 

  • Broken thermostat 

  • Clogged filters

  • Weak or unstable pilot light

  • Cracked heat exchanger

  • Worn-out ball bearings

  • Broken limit switch

  • Faulty circuit board

  • Broken gas valve

  • Bad thermocouple
