What we handle

From a quick fix to a full replacement.

Most furnace calls are repairs that take an hour. Some are end-of-life replacements. We'll tell you honestly which one you've got — and we don't mark up parts.

No-heat diagnostics

Igniter, flame sensor, blower motor, control board, gas valve — we troubleshoot down to the root cause, not the shotgun fix.

Furnace replacement

80% AFUE standard or 96%+ AFUE high-efficiency. We size it properly and re-pipe the gas line and venting to current code.

Annual tune-ups

Clean the burners, test combustion, check the heat exchanger, replace the filter. Cheaper than a no-heat call in February.

Indoor air quality add-ons

Whole-house humidifiers, UV lights, high-MERV media filters — installed alongside the furnace if you want better air.

How it works

From phone call to walkthrough — done right.

  1. 1. Diagnostic visit

    Flat-rate diagnostic fee — applied toward the repair if you go ahead. We test, explain, and give you a written estimate before any work starts.

  2. 2. Repair or replace decision

    We'll tell you whether it's worth fixing or whether you're throwing money at a 20-year-old unit. Honest math — no scare tactics.

  3. 3. Clean, code-compliant work

    Gas piping, venting, and flue per code. We pull permits when required and pressure-test gas joints with soap and a manometer.

  4. 4. Tested and walked through

    Combustion analyzer test on every install, then we walk you through the thermostat and filter schedule before we leave.

Why Competitive

We don't promise quality. We deliver it.

  • We size it for your house, not the catalog

    Manual J load calc on every install — most contractors skip it. Wrong size = short cycling, comfort issues, and 20% wasted fuel.

  • Mass Save rebates handled for you

    We're a registered Mass Save partner. Up to $10,000 in rebates on qualifying heat pumps and high-efficiency boilers — we file the paperwork.

  • Owner on every install

    Rob is a Master Plumber (MA #MP17629). He's on every install personally — not a sales rep, not a sub.

  • Clean, labeled, serviceable

    Our installs are diagrammed, labeled, and tidy. The next tech who walks in (even if it's not us) can service the system without guessing.

FAQ

Common questions about furnace repair & replacement.

  • How quickly can you get to a no-heat call?

    Same day during heating season. Call (508) 944-7623 — Rob answers personally and we'll tell you up front whether we can be there in 2 hours or 24.

  • Should I repair my old furnace or replace it?

    Rule of thumb: if the repair is over half the cost of a new unit AND the furnace is 15+ years old, replacement usually wins on running cost. We'll run the numbers with you.

  • Do you charge a diagnostic fee?

    Yes — a flat rate. It's applied toward the repair if you go ahead with the work the same day. No mystery charges.

  • What brands do you install?

    Trane, Carrier, Goodman, Bryant, Rheem. We stock parts for all the common brands and we're brand-agnostic — we recommend what fits your house and budget.

Rob's work is top notch. I'm a picky engineer. His choice of equipment, materials and his workmanship was excellent. In the bidding process, Rob was responsive, honest, competent, creative, and respectful.

He answered his phone at 6:30am. Within 15 minutes, Rob called and told me how to repair it myself — he did not take advantage of the situation. Saved me $300.
