If you notice that your furnace isn’t producing enough heat, or it won’t turn on at all, it’s a sign for your to call in an HVAC professional as soon as possible.
Whether you notice a strange noise or any other changes to your heating operation, act quickly. Fast heating repair can help reduce the total cost of restoring your system to full working order.

“They were on time and even scheduled to fit my needs. They were professional and responsive to my questions. Fair pricing, amazing finance options. Making my new A/C install the very next day. I am not sure it can get any better than this! I'm impressed.” - Alyce N.
In most cases, you’ll know when there’s a problem with your furnace or boiler. Maybe your unit starts making a loud noise when it turns on, or it turns on and off too quickly. If it struggles to start up or you notice your utility bill climbing, that could also be a sign that it’s time to schedule furnace repair services. Continuing to run your furnace with a fault can cause more damage. If the problem is as simple as a loose belt, that’s an easy fix, but if the motor blows out from overworking due to the loose belt, that can cost significantly more. When you suspect a problem, it’s important to act fast for heating repair.
There are lots of signs that can let you know that there’s something wrong with your heat. Call us quickly if you notice:
Higher than average fuel use
Unusual noises when running the heat
A frozen thermostat
Unit hard starts or short cycles
Units kept in good condition also perform more efficiently. Addressing repairs early can help reduce the cost of heating your home by reducing the amount of fuel needed to produce the required heat levels. Switching to more efficient units is also a great way to lower the cost of heat, so if your unit is more than a decade old, be sure to ask about the upgrade options or the cost to switch your fuel source to one that’s more economical, such as oil-to-gas conversion.
Pricing Your Furnace Repair
How much does repairing a furnace in Des Moines cost to repair?
Our service calls have two goals: identify what’s wrong with the system and give you options on how to fix it. You get to decide how you’d like to proceed with the repair, and we’ll make sure you’re quoted a fair price for the work. No, if’s, and’s, or but’s. Just our promise to you.
Replacement parts:
If your furnace isn’t turning on or won’t properly heat your home, any number of parts could be the culprit. And because parts vary by cost, the cost of the repair ultimately comes down to which part needs to be replaced. At Golden Rule, we help lower costs by eliminating our evaluation fees when you repair with us. Other options include financing a repair or finding a temporary fix to get you through as long as possible.
Warranty status:
If your furnace is still under a part warranty, a labor warranty, or both, it can save you a lot of money on the repair. In some cases, you won’t pay anything at all! Golden Rule is a big fan of warranty protections, which is why we offer a 1-year labor warranty on all furnace repairs.
Contractor experience:
Experienced contractors add more value to your repair by way of better customer protections (licensed and insured techs, warranties, guarantees, etc), higher quality service, and faster response times. Golden Rule provides all of the above while still keeping our pricing fair and honest for our customers.

Furnace Repair FAQ
While we can’t exactly answer this question without sending a technician to assess your issues, we will say that a furnace can start acting up around the 10- to the 15-year mark. This is around the time a manufacturer’s warranty falls off, parts begin to fail, and a furnace replacement may be best.
That said, with regular maintenance, you can keep a furnace going strong for 20+ years. Heck, we’ve got a few customers with furnaces that are older than some of our techs!
Plenty of signs could indicate to you that your furnace requires service. While no one expects you to become an expert technician, keep an eye out for potential warning signs. Catching a problem early on may help you prevent any serious damage in the long term.
Be on the lookout for:
1. Inadequate heating: Don’t settle for anything less than your absolute comfort. We can give you an accurate diagnosis of the issue and restore the functionality of your furnace as soon as possible.
2. Uneven heating: If your furnace heats your home unevenly, it’s likely a sign that something has gone wrong. If you have a zone control system, then it could be a problem with one of the dampers; if not, it could be an issue with a particular section of your ductwork.
3. Intermittent start-up: If your furnace only turns on occasionally or fails to cooperate sometimes, you may have a problem with the thermostat or pilot light.
