Most furnace repairs in Wellington run between $150 and $700, and the work can usually be done the same day we diagnose the problem. That’s the honest range for a place like Wellington, where many homes are large custom builds with long duct runs, high ceilings, and equipment that works harder than the square footage would suggest. If your heat won’t kick on in Greenview Shores or you smell something odd from the vents near Olympia, call us at (728) 220-0996 and we’ll send a technician who’s already familiar with the equipment and floor plans common to this area.
Why Brandt HVAC Co West Palm Beach Is Wellington’s Preferred Furnace Repair Company
Wellington homeowners tend to ask the same question when they call about a furnace: who exactly is coming to the house? It’s a fair concern, especially in neighborhoods where people are often home alone or have young kids and don’t want to open the door to a stranger. That’s why Brandt HVAC, with Devin Marlowe leading our West Palm Beach operation, sends every technician’s name and photo before the visit. The person at your door shows a photo ID badge and matches who we told you to expect. It’s what we call the Threshold Verified standard, and it’s how we’ve operated since 2003 as part of the Threshold Group family.
Beyond the security angle, we’ve earned a strong local reputation in Wellington by being straight about what a furnace repair costs before any work begins. Every job starts with a written price. No exceptions. Our customers in the gated communities along Lake Worth Road and the ranch-style sections near Greenbriar Blvd regularly tell us the same thing: they appreciated knowing the number in writing and not finding out later. That’s the way Devin runs our team, and it’s the way every Brandt HVAC call goes, whether you’re booking through our Furnace Repair team or reaching out after hours.
Styles & brands we work with





Boiler Repair in Wellington
Boiler repair in Wellington is less common than furnace work, but the older custom estates in neighborhoods like Equestrian Club Estates and the multi-acre properties off South Shore Blvd still run hydronic systems that need a technician who understands them. A boiler that’s making banging noises, leaking near the circulator pump, or failing to hold temperature is almost always a sign of mineral buildup, a failing zone valve, or an air-bound system. Most boiler repairs in Wellington fall in the $150 to $700 range, depending on whether we’re replacing a thermocouple, flushing a section of the loop, or swapping out a pressure relief valve.
Circulator Pumps and Zone Valves
When one part of a Wellington home heats while another stays cold, the culprit is usually a zone valve that’s stuck or a circulator pump that’s lost its prime. We test the end switches, listen for the pump’s impeller, and tell you plainly whether it’s a repair or replacement, in writing, before touching a thing.
Boiler Water Quality and Corrosion
Wellington’s water has enough mineral content that boilers without proper treatment develop scaling on heat exchanger surfaces. We check the system’s water chemistry during boiler calls and will clean or flush the loop if needed so you don’t pay for the same repair twice.
Gas Furnace Repair in Wellington
Gas furnace repair in Wellington starts with an ignition, gas valve, or flame sensor diagnosis on nearly every call, and the fix typically lands in the $150 to $700 window. A furnace that clicks but won’t light, fires briefly then shuts down, or blows cold air through a Palm Beach Point home usually has a failed ignitor, a dirty or cracked flame sensor, or a gas valve that isn’t opening. Because natural gas and combustion exhaust carry real safety risk, we never advise a homeowner to open a furnace cabinet and probe around inside on their own. The danger is real, which is why we send a trained, background-checked technician and a written quote on every visit.
Ignitor and Flame Sensor Replacement
Furnace ignitors in Wellington homes are often original equipment on units that are ten to fifteen years old. When the ignitor cracks, the furnace won’t light. We replace them same day with brand-matched parts, and the repair is covered in writing.
Gas Valve and Burner Assembly
A gas valve that’s stuck closed means no heat at all. A gas valve that leaks means we shut the gas off at the furnace and address it immediately. Either way, our technicians use combustion analyzers to verify safe operation before leaving, and the work carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, we make it right, at no charge.
Trusted Brands We Service in Wellington
We service and repair Carrier, Bryant, American Standard, and Trane furnaces across Wellington, among other major residential brands. Because we’re based in the South Florida market, we keep common parts for these brands on our trucks and in local stock, which means fewer multi-day waits when a control board or inducer motor fails. Whether you have a Bryant unit in a 90s-era home off Big Blue Trace or a Trane in a newer gated development near Versailles, our techs know these systems’ failure points and bring the right parts the first time. Each Brandt HVAC location is independently owned and operated, and our Wellington-area crews are coordinated through the brand’s Miami (South FL) office.

AfterCommon Furnace Repair Problems We See in Wellington Homes
- Blower motor failure from horse dust and high static pressure. Wellington’s equestrian estates generate fine dust from stables, hay, and arena footing. That dust works into blower motor windings and, combined with the high static pressure from undersized original ductwork in 1970s ranch homes, shortens motor life fast.
- Heat exchanger cracks caused by humidity and canal-side corrosion. Homes near Wellington’s canal systems and lakes deal with salt-tinged humidity that accelerates rust on furnace heat exchangers. A cracked exchanger leaks carbon monoxide, which is why a combustion analysis and heat exchanger inspection should never be skipped.
- Short-cycling from leaky, undersized ductwork. Long runs of aging duct with failing joints mean the furnace moves less air than it should, temperatures spike, and the high-limit switch shuts it down. The furnace isn’t the only problem, and on older Wellington homes, fixing the furnace without addressing the ducts leaves you with the same complaint next winter.
- Nuisance trips on older electrical panels. Many Wellington homes built before the 90s have panels without the spare capacity for modern furnace control boards and variable-speed motors. A furnace that trips its breaker during a rare January cold snap often points to panel limitations, not a bad furnace.

What moves a job from the low end to the high end is usually the part itself. An ignitor or flame sensor runs on the low end; a blower motor or gas valve lands higher. On a Wellington home with a cramped attic, a hard-to-access air handler, or a long duct run that needs sealing, labor adds up. You’ll see the full number, in writing, before any work starts. Our estimates are free, and there’s never pressure to say yes on the spot. Call (728) 220-0996 for an exact quote on your furnace.

FAQs About Furnace Repair in Wellington
Yes, it can, and we see it more in Wellington than the rest of Palm Beach County. A close lightning strike on a home off South Shore Blvd or Forest Hill Blvd can send a surge through the wiring and fry the furnace’s control board, which usually lands in the $150 to $700 range to replace. If your furnace stopped working right after a storm, call us at (728) 220-0996 and we’ll test the board before recommending anything.
It clogs filters faster, coats the blower motor and windings, and can restrict airflow enough to cause overheating. In Wellington’s equestrian neighborhoods like Equestrian Club Estates and Palm Beach Point, we often pull blower motors that are packed with a fine, sticky dust that regular pleated filters don’t catch. The fix is more than a filter change, it’s cleaning the blower wheel, checking the motor’s current draw, and sometimes sealing the return air path to keep stable dust out of the system in the first place.
Because the furnace is only half the system. Original ductwork in many 1970s and 1980s Wellington ranch homes was undersized when it was installed and has only gotten leakier with age. A new furnace moving air through those old ducts will still short-cycle, still overshoot the living room while the back bedrooms freeze, and still burn through blower motors. The real fix in these homes is sealing or replacing the duct runs and balancing static pressure, not buying another furnace. We’ll show you the static pressure readings and explain what they mean in plain language.
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Older Wellington homes, particularly the ranch and one-story builds from before the 90s, often have 100-amp panels that are already near capacity. Adding a variable-speed furnace with electronic controls can push past what the panel was designed to handle. We’ll check the panel’s load and the existing breakers during the estimate. If an upgrade is needed, you’ll know before you spend a dollar on equipment.
Short-cycling is almost always airflow or flame signal. When the temperature drops and the furnace has to run longer, a dirty flame sensor can’t hold the flame signal, and the furnace shuts down mid-cycle. Or restricted airflow from a packed blower or collapsed duct drives internal temperatures up until the high-limit switch kills the burner. We diagnose it quickly, tell you what a repair costs, and if you want us to proceed, we do the work with the 365-Day Done Right Promise behind it. Call (728) 220-0996 and we’ll get a technician to your part of Wellington fast.
