Common repairs include flame sensor ($60–$200), igniter ($125–$350), blower motor ($300–$1,150), control board ($225–$600), and heat exchanger ($1,150–$2,700+).

Most homes use gas furnaces, and the mixed-humid climate means moderate cooling demand. For new systems, an AC-gas furnace combo is a strong fit.

- Load calculationRecommended

- RefrigerantR-454B / R-32 (R-410A phased down 2025+)
- Good to know—
Missouri has no statewide residential building/mechanical code, so permit and inspection requirements are set locally by each city or county.
