Furnace repair cost by part.
Typical Monroe repair pricing including parts and labor. A diagnostic fee usually applies and is often credited toward the work.
For Monroe homeowners, furnace repair costs typically range from $75 for a simple flame sensor replacement to over $3,300 for a heat exchanger swap, plus a $70–$175 diagnostic fee. With a median home age of about 25 years (built 2001) and a mixed-humid climate, gas furnaces are the norm, and repairs often involve ignition components, blower motors, or control boards. Ohio requires a mechanical permit and post-install inspection, though local city/county rules vary, so your contractor should handle permitting. The federal 25C tax credit (up to $600 for high-efficiency central AC) applies, but furnace repairs alone typically don't qualify unless paired with a qualifying system upgrade.

What drives furnace repair costs in Monroe?
