Our Heating Services

New furnace, heat pump, or ductless system — load calculation, equipment selection, permits, same-day startup. Every unit sized to the space, not to what’s on the truck. Free estimates, financing available.

Something’s wrong — the system’s short-cycling, not keeping up, or making a sound it didn’t make last winter. Our technicians carry the parts that close most repairs on the first visit. Diagnostic first, written quote before anything gets touched.

The igniter that breaks in February was already weakening in October. A fall tune-up catches it. Maintenance agreement customers get priority scheduling and 10% off repairs.

Home Heating Systems We Repair

Complete Home Heating Repair for Every System

Gas furnaces — igniters, flame sensors, gas valves, burners, heat exchangers (crack detection included), blower motors, draft inductors, control boards. Igniter failure is most common. Cracked heat exchanger is most serious — CO gets into the airstream.

Electric furnaces — heating elements, sequencers, relays, control boards. No combustion, no CO risk, but a different diagnostic sequence than gas.

Heat pumps — reversing valve faults, refrigerant charge, defrost cycle issues, compressor diagnostics. Usually fail as “can’t keep up” rather than “no heat.” That distinction matters for the diagnostic.

Ductless mini-splits — fan motors, refrigerant leaks, sensor faults, drainage. Individual head failures are isolated — a fault in one zone doesn’t pull the others down.

Signs Your Home Heating System Needs Repair

Last two on this list — don’t call from inside:

  • No heat or weak output — system runs, nothing warm comes out; igniter, flame sensor, gas valve, or refrigerant
  • Short-cycling — kicks on, runs a few minutes, shuts off; high-limit switch, dirty filter, or overheating
  • Startup banging — delayed ignition; gas accumulating before the burner lights
  • Screeching — blower motor bearing; announces itself before failing completely
  • Rising bills — 15–20% spike without usage change; something is working harder than it should
  • Yellow pilot flame — gas burner burns blue; yellow is incomplete combustion
  • Gas smell — furnace off, leave without touching switches, gas company first, then Conrad

CO alarm — out now, doors open as you go, 911 first, then 503-785-9715

How Our Home Heating Repair Service Works

Call comes in — live dispatcher, not a recording. Address logged, technician sent. On-site, the tech runs a full diagnostic: not a look at the symptom that triggered the call, but the whole system.

Written quote before anything is touched. That number is the invoice number — nothing changes between estimate and billing. Repair done, full cycle run to confirm it holds, written summary left before we leave.Most calls close on the first visit. Conrad carries igniters, flame sensors, capacitors, blower motors, reversing valves, and control boards for major brands. More detail by system type: furnace repair | general heating repair

Home Heating Repair Cost

What Home Heating Repair Costs

Most repairs land between $150 and $600. Igniter and flame sensor replacements sit at the lower end. Blower motors, reversing valves, and control boards push higher. Written quote after diagnostics, before work starts — free on repair calls.

If the repair math doesn’t hold, Conrad reviews replacement options at the same visit. No second appointment to get numbers.

Why Deferring Repairs Gets Expensive

A failing flame sensor causes short-cycling. Repeated short-cycling trips the high-limit switch. Chronic high-limit trips stress the heat exchanger. One deferred $150 repair becomes a conversation about a cracked heat exchanger two seasons later.Refrigerant leaks follow the same pattern: a slow charge loss degrades heat pump performance across one season, then kills the compressor in the next. Annual heating maintenance interrupts that chain before it compounds.

Why Beaverton Homeowners Choose Conrad for Heating Repair

Beaverton-Based, Locally Owned

Conrad’s shop is on NW Arizona Dr — not a national franchise with a local number. The same team that answers the phone goes on the job. Fast response times across Washington County because the shop is actually here, not across the metro

Same-Day and Emergency Service

Most calls before 5 PM are on the same-day schedule across the Portland metro. After hours, the emergency line goes to a live person. Most emergency calls are on-site within 2 hours — the proximity of a Beaverton base helps.

Upfront Pricing, Free Estimates

Diagnostic first, written quote second, work third. Free estimates on repair calls. The number after the diagnostic is the number on the invoice — no additions at the end without a phone call first.

All Home Heating Systems Serviced

Gas furnaces, electric furnaces, heat pumps, ductless mini-splits — all brands, all ages. Technicians trained on each system type, not defaulting to “might need replacement” when the repair gets technical.

What home heating systems do you repair?

Gas and electric furnaces, heat pumps (ducted and ductless), ductless mini-splits, and thermostat and control systems. All major brands — Bosch, Lennox, Carrier, Trane, Daikin, Goodman, Rheem — regardless of age or who originally installed the system.

How much does home heating repair cost?

Most repairs run $150–$600 depending on the component and system type. Conrad provides a written quote after diagnostics, before work starts — free on repair calls. Call 503-785-9715 for same-day service.

How do I know if my home heating system needs repair?

No heat, short-cycling, unusual sounds, rising energy bills, or a yellow pilot flame are all worth a diagnostic call. Gas smell or CO alarm — leave first, call from outside.

Do you offer same-day home heating repair?

Most calls received before 5 PM are on the same-day schedule. For no-heat emergencies, emergency heating repair runs 24/7 — live dispatcher, not voicemail. Most emergency calls are on-site within 2 hours.

Should I repair or replace my home heating system?

Under 12 years old with one clear failure — repair. Past 15 years, second repair this season, or repair cost over half the equipment’s current value — replacement usually wins the math. Cracked heat exchanger skips the calculation: the furnace comes out.

How can I prevent home heating breakdowns?

Annual fall maintenance catches the igniter close to failing, the flame sensor with buildup, the heat exchanger that needs a closer look — before any of them cause a no-heat call. Replace filters every 1–3 months. Annual heating maintenance from Conrad includes a full inspection with a written summary.
