Systems receiving annual maintenance typically need fewer repairs and catch problems while they are minor and less expensive to fix. Neglected systems often develop cascading failures where one problem damages additional components. Maintenance plan members usually receive discounts on repairs when needed. The cost of annual maintenance is typically less than a single emergency service call.
Adding a humidifier to an existing furnace costs $400 to $1,000 installed. Bypass humidifiers are most common at $400 to $700, while powered units cost $600 to $1,000. Annual maintenance including water panel replacement costs $50 to $100. Proper humidity improves comfort and reduces static electricity in winter.
Relocating a thermostat costs $100 to $300 for simple moves with accessible wiring paths. Running new wire through finished walls may cost $200 to $400 with drywall repair. Wireless thermostat sensors eliminate the need for thermostat relocation in many cases. Proper thermostat placement improves system performance and comfort.
Signs of a cracked heat exchanger include soot buildup inside the furnace, a yellow or flickering burner flame instead of steady blue, unusual odors when the furnace runs, and carbon monoxide detector alerts.
