Franklin HVAC Repair Service

Complete Heating Solutions

We handle both oil furnace repair and gas furnace repair for Franklin homeowners, plus electric heating systems that are becoming more common in the area. Whether your system is cycling constantly, blowing cold air, making strange noises, or just quit entirely, we’ve got the expertise to fix it properly.

Franklin’s mix of older and newer homes creates unique heating challenges. Older properties often have furnaces that haven’t been properly maintained in years, ductwork that’s seen better days, or oil systems that need specialized care. Newer homes might have high-efficiency gas furnaces with complex controls that require specific knowledge to repair correctly.

Our heater repair service includes emergency repairs when your furnace fails completely, routine maintenance to prevent costly breakdowns, and honest recommendations about whether repair or replacement makes more financial sense. We also handle the small issues before they become big problems—like strange noises, uneven heating, or systems that cycle too frequently.

How quickly can you get to my Franklin home for furnace repair?

We offer 24/7 emergency furnace repair service throughout Franklin and aim for same-day repairs whenever possible. During peak winter months when temperatures drop below freezing, we prioritize emergency calls where customers have no heat at all.

Our technicians carry fully stocked trucks with the most common furnace parts, which means we can complete most oil furnace repair and gas furnace repair jobs in a single visit. You won’t be waiting days for parts to arrive while your family deals with a cold house and potentially frozen pipes.

For non-emergency heating repair in Franklin, we typically schedule service within 24-48 hours. We understand that even minor furnace issues can quickly become major problems during Massachusetts winters, so we don’t make you wait unnecessarily.

Repair costs vary based on the specific problem and parts needed, not necessarily whether you have oil or gas. Both systems have similar components like blowers, heat exchangers, and control systems that can fail and need replacement.

Oil furnaces sometimes require specialized cleaning procedures, nozzle replacements, or fuel line repairs that gas systems don’t need. Gas furnaces can have complex valve assemblies, electronic ignition systems, or venting issues that oil systems don’t have. The age and condition of your specific system matters more than the fuel type.

We provide free estimates for all furnace repairs in Franklin so you know the exact cost upfront. Our technicians will always explain what’s wrong, why it happened, and give you transparent pricing before starting any work. No hidden fees or surprise charges when the job is done.

If your furnace is under 10 years old and the repair cost is reasonable compared to the system’s value, fixing it usually makes the most financial sense. For furnaces over 15 years old that need frequent repairs, can’t heat your Franklin home evenly, or are driving up your energy bills, replacement often saves money in the long run.

We look at several factors: your current energy costs, how often you’ve needed repairs recently, whether your system can handle Franklin’s coldest winter days, and if parts are still readily available. Sometimes a major repair on a 20-year-old system costs almost as much as a new, efficient furnace that will run for the next 15-20 years.

Our technicians will give you honest recommendations based on your specific situation and budget. We’re not trying to sell you a new system if your current furnace can be reliably repaired and will serve you well for several more years.

Yes, we repair gas furnaces, oil furnaces, and electric heating systems throughout Franklin and all of Norfolk County. Our NATE-certified technicians have experience with all major brands including Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, and many others.

Franklin homes have a diverse mix of heating systems. Some neighborhoods have newer high-efficiency gas furnaces, while other areas still rely on oil systems that have been heating homes reliably for decades. We also service electric furnaces and heat pumps that are becoming more popular as homeowners look for alternatives to fossil fuels.

Whether you have a traditional furnace, a high-efficiency condensing unit, an older cast-iron system, or something that other HVAC companies won’t touch, we can diagnose and repair it properly. We stock parts for both common and hard-to-find systems.

Annual furnace maintenance before winter hits is absolutely essential for Franklin homes. This includes cleaning or replacing filters, checking all safety controls, inspecting the heat exchanger for cracks, testing thermostat operation, and verifying that your system is running at peak efficiency.

For oil furnaces, maintenance also involves cleaning the combustion chamber, replacing the oil filter and nozzle, checking fuel lines for leaks, and ensuring proper venting. Gas systems need inspection of the gas valve, ignition system, flame sensor, and venting to ensure safe operation throughout the heating season.

Regular maintenance catches small problems before they become expensive emergency repairs or dangerous situations. We offer maintenance plans that include annual tune-ups, priority service when you need repairs, and discounts on parts and labor. It’s the smart way to keep your heating system running reliably through Franklin’s unpredictable winters.

Yes, it can be extremely dangerous to your family’s health and safety. A malfunctioning furnace may leak deadly carbon monoxide, overheat and create fire hazards, or fail completely when you need heat most. If you smell gas, notice unusual odors, or hear strange sounds from your system, shut it off immediately and call us.

Carbon monoxide poisoning is a serious risk with any fuel-burning furnace that’s not operating correctly. Cracked heat exchangers, blocked venting, faulty combustion, or improper gas pressure can all create life-threatening situations. The symptoms often mimic the flu, making it easy to miss until it’s too late.

Don’t try to “tough it out” with a furnace that’s acting up, especially during Franklin’s coldest months when you’re tempted to keep it running despite obvious problems. Your family’s safety is worth far more than avoiding a repair bill. We’re available 24/7 for emergency situations when safety is a concern.
