- Serving all of West Valley City
A lot of West Valley City homes were built in the 1960s and 1970s, and some are still running furnaces that are 25 or 30 years old. Those furnaces usually tell you they’re struggling before they quit: louder startups, rattling ducts, longer warm-up times. Catching it early keeps the repair small.
Our techs work on every major brand. They find the actual cause, explain it in plain terms, and quote the fix before doing anything.
What wears out West Valley City furnaces
Valley-floor inversions
West Valley City sits low in the Salt Lake Valley, where inversion air settles. Filters clog faster, and a furnace starved of air overheats and shuts itself off. Check the filter first.
Split-level layouts
In a split-level, one furnace serves three short floors. Rooms that never warm up are often an airflow problem rather than a bad furnace, and we check that before replacing parts.

Common in split-levels. We check airflow and duct balance before blaming the furnace.Yellow or flickering flame

Repair it, or replace it?
A furnace younger than roughly 15 years with a modest repair bill is almost always worth fixing.
If it’s 25 or 30 years old and getting louder, price a replacement before you put money into it. That’s what Chris P. did: his 30-year-old furnace came out, a dual-fuel system went in, and $3,450 in rebates came off. If you only want a furnace, ours start at $3,990, installed in one day.

If you smell rotten eggs, leave the house with everyone, without flipping switches or lighting anything. Once you’re outside, call Enbridge Gas at 1-800-767-1689 or 911. Call us for the furnace after the gas company clears the home.
On every job, no exceptions
We pull the permit
A permit means a city or county inspector checks the work for safety and code. It also protects you when you sell your home. Not every HVAC company pulls permits. We do on every job.
We haul away the old equipment
Your old furnace, AC or heat pump leaves with us. Nothing is left in your yard or garage for you to deal with.
We leave it cleaner than we found it
We clean up before we go and leave your home cleaner than we found it, so the only thing you notice is the new system.

Furnace repair in West Valley City: questions
Is your furnace repair available 24/7 in West Valley City?
Yes. Nights, weekends and holidays included. Call 801-396-0019 or book online whenever the heat goes out.
How much does furnace repair cost in West Valley City?
A visit starts at $129 for the diagnostic. Flame sensors and ignitors are inexpensive fixes; blower and inducer motors are the bigger ones. Care Plan members get 10% off either way.
Why is my old furnace so loud?
A worn blower wheel, a failing inducer motor or loose ductwork are the usual causes. A furnace that’s getting louder every winter is telling you something, so have it checked before January.
Should I repair a 30-year-old furnace?
Only for a small, inexpensive part. Before a major repair, get a replacement price, because a dual-fuel system in West Valley City comes with at least $2,150 in guaranteed rebates.
Why is the bottom level of my split-level so cold?
Cool air settles in the lowest level, and a single-speed furnace shuts off before the air mixes. Duct balance and a variable-speed system usually fix it.
