Furnace Tune-Up

FAQs About Furnace Tune Ups

How much does a tune-up on a furnace cost?

Most people who search for furnace tune-up specials near me are looking for a good deal on a tune-up.

A lower-end job can cost $29-$99, depending on your location and system. However, these typically are not thorough tune-ups and usually do not have a system guarantee. Aquarius Home Services does have 5-star tuning coupons for maintenance.

What does a furnace tune-up consist of?

Inspection of the total heating system components and cleaning are typically included in a furnace check-up. A superior heating tune-up will look at electrical components, blower assembly, venting, air filter, ducting, burner adjustment or cleaning, and look for cracks in the heat exchanger.

Are furnace tune-ups worth it?

Annual inspections of heating systems are necessary to maintain furnace efficiency and safety from carbon monoxide. It is a small amount to pay to ensure your home’s indoor air quality and that you won’t require furnace service in the future.

How often should you get your furnace tuned up?

Annual maintenance is key, especially in Minnesota and Wisconsin. Every year since 2020, we have seen a crunch on energy resources, which has driven up the cost of natural gas. Simply changing the air filter is not enough to ensure your heating and air conditioning systems are operating with peak efficiency and air flow.

What is the difference between a furnace tune-up and a furnace repair?

A furnace tune-up is a performance evaluation of a heating system. At Aquarius Home Services, we use a comprehensive tune-up checklist. A furnace repair is needed when the system stops working, is producing an unusual noise, or is not producing warm air.

Do you work on heat pumps?

We do offer service on heat pumps and heat pump replacements.

Do you offer a boiler tune-up?

Yes, our tune-up offer applies to boilers as well. Ongoing maintenance is critical for boiler systems to ensure reliable operation and prevent boiler repairs.

What does a red tag on a furnace mean?

If your furnace was red tagged by an HVAC company, it means that they deemed the system unsafe to operate, possibly because of the risk of carbon monoxide or a gas leak. You can call Aquarius Home Services if your furnace has been red tagged, and we will offer a free inspection and second opinion.

Do you offer an air conditioning tune-up?

Yes, Aquarius Home Services can offer tune-ups for your AC too. During the furnace tune-up, we will inspect some of the shared HVAC components. In the early springtime time we recommend a full AC system check. Ask about our AC check-up specials.

Do you offer annual maintenance plans?

Yes, Aquarius Home Services has comprehensive annual HVAC maintenance plans. Our Partner Plans offer automatic scheduling and help save money on your furnace and air conditioner tune-ups. We can also help with ordering air filters.
