What should I do if my furnace won't turn on?

First, verify your thermostat is set to heat mode and the temperature is set above room temperature. Check that your circuit breaker isn't tripped and reset it if needed. Look at your air filter—if it's extremely dirty, replace it. If none of these work, call 423-271-6515 for professional diagnosis. Don't attempt furnace repairs yourself, as they can be dangerous.

How much does furnace repair cost?

Repair investments vary based on the specific issue and components needed. We always provide a detailed estimate before beginning work. Our financing options through VEC/TVA, Sweetwater Utilities/TVA, and Service Finance make any repair affordable. Call 423-271-6515 for a professional evaluation.

Should I repair my furnace or replace it?

This depends on the furnace age and problem severity. Generally, furnaces older than 15-20 years that need frequent repairs are replacement candidates. Newer systems with a single problem are usually worth repairing. We can evaluate your specific situation and recommend whether repair or replacement makes sense financially.

Can you repair furnaces from any brand?

Yes! We repair all furnace brands and models—American Standard, Carrier, Lennox, Ducane, Goodman, and all others. Our technicians are trained on all major furnace types and manufacturers.

How quickly can you respond to furnace repairs in Sweetwater?

We respond promptly to service calls. In most cases, we can reach your home in a timely manner. When we're handling multiple service calls, it might take longer, but we prioritize urgent heating issues above all else. Call 423-271-6515 for prompt dispatch.

Do you repair furnaces from other contractors?

Absolutely! We repair furnaces regardless of who installed them. We never require service from a previous contractor. If another company worked on your furnace, we can diagnose current problems and fix them.

Can you repair my furnace same-day?

For most common furnace problems, yes. Igniter replacement, thermostat issues, blower problems, and electrical component failures can usually be fixed same-day. Complex issues requiring part ordering might take longer, but we'll explain the timeline upfront.

What's your warranty on furnace repairs?

All repairs come with a 1-year parts and labor warranty. If the same problem occurs within one year, we'll fix it at no charge. This warranty reflects our confidence in our workmanship and parts quality.

Do you offer Club Membership to prevent repairs?

Yes! Our Club Membership include pre-season tune-ups, filter replacements, priority service, and repair discounts. Regular maintenance prevents most furnace issues. Ask about our plans when you call 423-271-6515.

Can I get financing for furnace repairs?

Yes! We work with Service Finance to offer flexible payment options with fast approval. We can arrange financing for repairs so cost doesn't prevent you from restoring your heating.

Is furnace repair covered by homeowner's insurance?

Most homeowner policies don't cover routine furnace repairs. However, repairs from sudden mechanical failure are sometimes covered. Check your policy. We can help document the issue and issue repair invoices for insurance claims.

What's the difference between furnace repair and replacement?

Repair fixes the specific problem causing your furnace to malfunction. Replacement means installing a new furnace entirely. For older furnaces with multiple problems or very low efficiency, replacement is often more cost-effective long-term than repeated repairs.
