Furnace repair cost by part.
Typical Shawnee repair pricing including parts and labor. A diagnostic fee usually applies and is often credited toward the work.
In Shawnee, Kansas, furnace repair costs reflect the area's older homes (median built 1987) and mixed-humid/cold climate. Typical repairs include flame sensor ($90–$275), igniter ($175–$500), blower motor ($450–$1,650), control board ($325–$900), and heat exchanger ($1,650–$3,900+), plus a diagnostic fee of $85–$225.
