Our Furnace Repair in West Palm Beach typically costs between $150 and $700, depending on what’s failed. Most igniter, flame sensor, and pressure switch replacements fall in the $150 – $350 range. Draft inducer motors, blower motors, and control boards usually land between $350 and $700. Calls are answered by a live person at (728) 220-0996, and we send a background-checked technician by name and photo before anyone steps through your door.
Devin Marlowe leads Brandt HVAC Co West Palm Beach, part of the Threshold Group family of home-service companies, established in 2003. Homeowners in neighborhoods from The Acreage to Lake Worth call us because they want to know exactly who is working in their home. Our home service standard means every tech is identity-verified, uniformed, and shows a photo ID at the door. If anyone arrives who you were not told to expect, that visit is on us and we make it right.
Furnace Maintenance
Furnace Maintenance is a scheduled inspection and cleaning that catches small problems before they turn into cold nights. In West Palm Beach, where furnaces sit idle for months at a stretch, rust, dust, and humidity cause more failures than wear from use. A tune-up runs $80 – $200 and takes about an hour, including the safety checks and a written report of what we found. We recommend it every fall before the first cool snap, and we never leave without explaining what we saw, what it means, and what it costs to fix if anything looks weak.
Igniter and Flame Sensor Checks
We clean and test the igniter and flame sensor, the two parts that fail most often on gas furnaces. If a sensor reads weak, you’ll know before it strands you on a cold night. Replacing these early costs far less than the emergency call at 2 a.m.
Heat Exchanger Inspection
We inspect the heat exchanger for cracks, rust, and signs of carbon monoxide leakage. This is a safety check, not a sales item. We show you the inspection results and explain any findings in plain language before recommending any work.
Styles & brands we work with
Heat Pump Repair
Heat Pump Repair addresses the system that both heats and cools most West Palm Beach homes. If your heat pump runs but the air blowing feels lukewarm, the reversing valve or defrost control has likely failed. Most heat pump repairs in the area run between $150 and $650, with electrical diagnostics and refrigerant-related issues landing on the higher end. We stock common parts for Bryant, American Standard, Carrier, and Trane units on our trucks, which means many calls are resolved in a single visit.
Reversing Valve Diagnosis
This is the part that switches your system from cooling to heating. When it sticks, your home may blow cold air in heat mode. We test the coil, the valve body, and the charge before recommending replacement, because misdiagnosis here is expensive and common.
Defrost Board and Coil Checks
When humidity freezes on the outdoor coil in the rare cold snap, the defrost board should clear it. A failed board means the unit ices over and stops heating. We check the sensor, the board, and the cycle time, then give you a written price for whatever is actually wrong.
Heating Repair
Heating Repair covers any central heating system in your home that’s stopped doing its job, whether it’s a gas furnace, heat pump, or electric resistance system. The first sign is often a thermostat that calls for heat and nothing answers. We start every diagnostic at $89, which is credited toward the repair if you proceed. The work itself typically falls between $150 and $700, and you get a written price before anything is touched, no exceptions.
No-Heat Calls
A system that won’t start has a short list of usual suspects: no power, a failed igniter, a tripped pressure switch, or a control board gone quiet. We test each one in order so you don’t pay for guessed-at parts. The average no-heat repair is completed on the first visit.
Intermittent Heating Failures
When a furnace works some days and not others, the problem is nearly always a sensor or switch that reads incorrectly under certain conditions. We check the flame sensor, rollout switch, and thermostat wiring. Our techs document findings with photos so you see what we see before you approve anything.
Boiler Repair
Boiler Repair service keeps hydronic heating systems running for the smaller slice of West Palm Beach homes that use them. Most boiler issues in our area come from circulator pumps, zone valves, and pressure relief valves that fail after long idle periods. Calls for boiler work are less common here than furnace or heat pump calls, but our techs carry the test equipment for gas, oil, and electric boilers, and most repairs price out between $150 and $700. You’ll know the cost before we turn a single wrench.
Circulator Pump Replacement
If your boiler fires but radiators stay cold, the circulator pump that moves heated water has likely stopped turning. We check the impeller, the capacitor, and the voltage at the pump before quoting a replacement. This is the single most common boiler repair we perform.
Zone Valve and Pressure Checks
If one room heats while others stay cold, a zone valve has likely stuck or its actuator failed. We test each zone’s wiring and valve operation and replace only what is broken. We also verify system pressure and the expansion tank so the fix does not mask a larger problem.
Gas Furnace Repair
Palm Beach Furnace Repair is the service homeowners call about most when temperatures drop into the 40s and their system has not run in months. The humidity and salt air we live with is rough on circuit boards, gas valves, and electrical connections. Repairs range from $150 for a simple flame sensor or igniter replacement to $700 for a draft inducer motor or gas valve. Every job gets a written price first, and every repair is covered by a written guarantee for 365 days.
Gas furnaces are safe when properly maintained, and dangerous when ignored. If you smell gas or suspect a leak, leave the home and call your gas utility before calling us. Carbon monoxide is odorless, which is why every repair includes a check of the heat exchanger and venting. We will never clear a gas furnace for use if the safety checks do not pass.
Flame Sensor and Igniter Work
The flame sensor is a small stainless rod that confirms the burner is lit. In our humid climate, it corrodes and takes the whole furnace down with it. Cleaning works for a while, but replacement runs $150 – $250 and solves the problem permanently in most systems.
Gas Valve and Burner Service
If the furnace clicks but never lights, the gas valve may not be opening. We test inlet and outlet pressure, the thermocouple or pilot assembly, and the valve’s solenoid. We carry replacements for most Carrier, Trane, Bryant, and American Standard furnaces, and the written quote includes everything: part, labor, and the 365-day guarantee.
Furnace Tune Up
Furnace Tune Up is a 21-point inspection and cleaning that costs $80 – $200 and usually takes 45 to 75 minutes. Think of it like changing the oil on a car that sits in a humid garage for nine months a year. We check gas pressure, the heat exchanger, the igniter, the flame sensor, the condensate drain, the blower motor, and every safety switch. You receive a written report and a written price for any recommended repair, and our tune-up technicians are not paid on what they sell.
What the Tune-Up Report Shows
We document amp draws, temperature rise, gas pressure, and the condition of the major components. The report leaves with you, not just with us. If something is wearing out, we tell you now, not in an emergency call later.
Humidity and Coastal Corrosion Notes
Homes within a few miles of the intracoastal and the ocean get an extra layer of corrosion on electrical contacts and flame sensors. In Furnace Repair - Greenacres, Royal Palm Beach, and Palm Springs, we check those connections specifically and treat them with protective contact spray. That single step prevents a large share of our no-heat calls.
Emergency Furnace Repair
Emergency Furnace Repair is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week in West Palm Beach, and a live person always answers the phone. We never route you to a voicemail queue after hours. When your furnace dies during one of our cold fronts, the risk is more than discomfort; a cold home is dangerous for infants, elderly family members, and anyone with respiratory conditions. We answer, we dispatch, and we arrive with the parts required for most common failures already loaded.
There is no overtime charge on emergency calls. The work carries the same pricing as a weekday visit, and the same 365-Day Done Right Promise. If the repair fails within the year, the return visit costs you nothing.
What Counts as a Real Emergency
A furnace that will not heat, a burning smell from the vents, a gas odor, or water leaking from the unit all justify a same-day call. A noisy but working furnace can usually wait until morning. Call us either way; we will help you sort out how urgent the issue really is.
How Emergency Dispatch Works
When you call, we confirm your address, the system you have, and the symptoms. Then we text you the technician’s name and photo before they leave. When they arrive, they show a photo ID badge at your door. The Threshold Verified standard applies to every visit, emergency or not.
Brands We Service
We service all major residential HVAC brands, including Carrier, Trane, Bryant, American Standard, Lennox, Goodman, Rheem, York, and Daikin. Carrier and Bryant units are especially common in Palm Beach County’s older developments, and our techs know the age-specific failures those systems produce. We stock OEM flame sensors, igniters, pressure switches, and draft inducer motors for most Carrier and Bryant models.
Trane and American Standard are built with many shared parts, which helps us diagnose and repair them quickly. We also service Rheem, Goodman, York, and Daikin systems, plus whatever else is already in your home. Whether you have a Bryant from the mid-2000s or a Daikin installed last year, we can help.

- No heat at all. When the thermostat calls for heat and nothing happens, a safety switch or igniter has likely failed. The longer these parts run in a failed state, the more strain they put on other components.
- Burning odor from vents. A dusty furnace burning off after a long idle is normal for the first few minutes. A smell that persists or smells like plastic or gas means a component is overheating or leaking, and the system should be shut down and inspected immediately.
- Short cycling or constant clicking. If the furnace starts, stops, and starts again every few minutes, a limit switch or flame sensor is misreading conditions. This wastes energy and accelerates wear on the blower motor and gas valve.
- Yellow or flickering flame. A healthy gas furnace flame burns blue and steady. Yellow flickering indicates incomplete combustion, which produces carbon monoxide. This is a safety issue, not a comfort concern.
- Water pooling around the unit. High-efficiency furnaces create condensate that drains away. If the drain clogs or the pump fails, water backs up and can damage the control board and surrounding drywall. The repair is usually inexpensive if caught early.
Our Process, Step by Step
- 1
Call and speak to a person. You reach a live human at (728) 220-0996, not a menu. We ask what the system is doing, how long it has been happening, and any unusual sounds or smells. If it sounds urgent, we tell you so and send a tech immediately.
- 2
Get your tech’s name and photo. Before the van leaves, we text you the technician’s name, photo, and a short bio. You know exactly who is coming. When they knock, they show the same photo ID.
- 3
Diagnostic with a written price. The tech checks the system with multimeters, manometers, and combustion analyzers where applicable. Then you get a written price for the repair before any work begins, in plain dollars, parts and labor included.
- 4
Repair and documentation. The work is done with OEM or OEM-equivalent parts, and the tech leaves with you a written copy of what was done and the 365-day guarantee. No verbal promises. No surprises.
- 5
Follow-up if anything fails. Under the 365-Day Done Right Promise, if the repair does not hold, we return free of charge. One call, no argument, no second invoice.
How Much Does Furnace Repair Cost in West Palm Beach?
A typical furnace repair in West Palm Beach runs $150 – $700. Flame sensor cleaning or replacement is $150 – $250. Igniter replacement sits between $180 and $300. Pressure switches run $150 – $250. A draft inducer motor or blower motor lands between $400 and $700 depending on the model. Control boards are the high end at $500 – $700 for most furnaces.
What affects the price is mostly the part and its availability. Systems from the 2000s sometimes need parts ordered from a supply house, while current Carrier, Trane, Bryant, and American Standard parts are usually on the truck. Multi-speed and variable-speed blower motors cost more than single-speed ones. High-efficiency furnaces have additional sensors and the condensate components, which adds to the complexity of some repairs.
To avoid overpaying, get a written price before the work starts and ask what the guarantee covers and for how long. Every repair from us includes a 365-day guarantee. A free estimate means you pay nothing for the diagnostic if you decide the repair is worth it; at Brandt HVAC Co West Palm Beach, the diagnostic is credited toward the repair. Call (728) 220-0996 for an exact quote, with no obligation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Furnace Repair in West Palm Beach
Furnace repair is the diagnosis and correction of any failure in a home’s gas, electric, or hydronic heating system. It covers parts like igniters, flame sensors, gas valves, blower motors, control boards, pressure switches, and safety sensors. In West Palm Beach, repairs are most common after months of summer disuse. A trained technician finds the failed part, gives you a written price, and replaces it the same visit in most cases.
Most repairs take 45 to 90 minutes once the technician arrives. Diagnostic work is quick on modern systems because the control board stores error codes. If a part is not on the truck, a second visit is scheduled, though our trucks carry the most common replacement parts for Carrier, Trane, Bryant, and American Standard furnaces.
Most repairs run $150 – $700, with igniters and flame sensors at the low end and blower motors and control boards at the high end. The diagnostic fee is credited toward the repair. You always receive a written price before work begins, and every repair is guaranteed for 365 days. Call (728) 220-0996 for an exact quote.

Clear a path to the furnace so the technician can work safely, and move items away from the unit and the thermostat. If you have pets, secure them in another room. Have your thermostat set to a temperature that calls for heat so the system can be tested. You do not need to do anything else; the technician walks you through the rest.
