I wasn't able to be there for the service appointment, but Ethan and Robert worked directly with my family while I was at work. They quickly diagnosed and fixed our furnace issue, and my wife and elderly mother both commented on how professional, respectful, and easy they were to work with.

Is your furnace worth repairing, or is it time to replace it?

When a furnace quits in a Missoula February you want two things: someone who can find the actual fault, and someone who will tell you honestly whether it is worth repairing. We do both, and we are as willing to tell you a repair is not worth the money as we are to sell you one.

What is included

What the job actually involves

  • No-heat diagnosis on gas furnaces
  • Ignitors, flame sensors, pressure switches and rollout switches
  • Inducer and blower motor faults
  • Control board and thermostat wiring problems
  • Gas valve and combustion troubleshooting
  • Heat exchanger inspection
  • Condensate blockages on high-efficiency units
  • A clear repair-or-replace answer with the reasoning behind it

The part that matters

We would rather tell you it is not worth fixing

Multiple customers have written publicly that we did not push them. One had already been through another Missoula company before calling us. That reputation is worth more to a two-man shop than any single oversold repair, and it is why we will talk you out of one.

Our hours, stated plainly

We run Monday to Friday, 8 to 5. We are not a 24-hour operation and we are not going to tell you we are.

What we can do is answer fast inside those hours and get to you quickly, which is what our reviews actually say about us. If your furnace is limping rather than dead, calling on a Tuesday is a much better outcome for you than waiting for it to fail on a Saturday.

If you have a no-heat situation outside our hours and it cannot wait, call somebody who is open. We would rather say that than leave you sitting in a cold house waiting on us.

Things worth checking before you call

Two of them are free and they solve a real share of no-heat calls. Check that the thermostat is calling for heat and that its batteries are not dead. Then check the filter, because a filter that has not been changed in a year will choke airflow badly enough to trip the furnace out on a high-limit.

Also check that the furnace door panel is seated. Most furnaces have a safety switch that cuts power when that panel is off, and a panel that did not get pushed home after a filter change will look exactly like a dead furnace.

If those are all fine, stop there and call us. Gas and combustion are not a place to experiment.

Questions

Furnace Repair questions

Do you offer after-hours or emergency furnace repair?
No. Our hours are Monday to Friday, 8 to 5, and we would rather be straight about that than have you waiting on a call we cannot take. Inside those hours we answer fast and get out quickly.
How do I know if my furnace needs repair or replacement?
Age against repair cost. Under ten years, most repairs are worth it. Past fifteen, a large repair is usually money on borrowed time. A cracked heat exchanger is a replacement regardless of age, because it is a combustion safety problem.
What should I check before calling for a no-heat visit?
Thermostat set to heat with live batteries, a filter that is not completely blocked, and the furnace door panel seated properly since most have a safety switch behind it. Those three account for a real share of no-heat calls. Anything past that, call us.
Do you charge for an estimate?
No. Estimates are free. Diagnosing a fault on a system that is already broken is different work from quoting an installation, and we will be clear about which one you are getting before we come out.

Rather just talk to someone?

Call the shop weekdays, 8am to 5pm. You will get one of the owners.
