Repair vs. Replace
Should You Repair or Replace Your Columbus Furnace?
The $5,000 rule applies to furnaces too: if repair cost × system age exceeds $5,000, replacement typically makes more financial sense. Our technicians give honest guidance on every call.
Furnace is 8–12 years old
Most repairs under $600 are worth doing on a well-maintained furnace. Annual ProCare tune-ups can extend system life to 20+ years. Look for a 96%+ AFUE rating when comparing replacement options.
Repair recommended: under $600Furnace is 15–20 years old
If your furnace is nearing the end of its expected lifespan and facing a major repair, replacement with a high-efficiency unit typically saves $400–$800/year on Columbus gas bills.
Replacement typically better: $2,800+Heat exchanger has cracked
A cracked heat exchanger is a safety issue — it can allow carbon monoxide to enter your home. This repair nearly always costs more than a new furnace and is the clearest sign replacement is the right call.
Replacement required: $2,800–$6,500Emergency — no heat overnight
