Furnace repair cost by part.
Typical Centerville repair pricing including parts and labor. A diagnostic fee usually applies and is often credited toward the work.
In Centerville, Ohio, furnace repair costs vary based on the age of your system and the specific component needing service. With a median home built in 1978, many homes have older furnaces that may require more frequent repairs. Typical local prices range from $65–$175 for a diagnostic fee, plus parts and labor: flame sensor $70–$225, igniter $125–$400, blower motor $350–$1,350, control board $275–$700, and heat exchanger $1,350–$3,100+. Ohio requires a mechanical permit for furnace repairs involving replacement of major components, and post-install inspection may be needed depending on your jurisdiction. Most Centerville homes use gas heating, and the mixed-humid climate means moderate cooling demand, so an AC-gas furnace combination is a common choice.
