Furnace repair cost by part.
Typical Goodlettsville repair pricing including parts and labor. A diagnostic fee usually applies and is often credited toward the work.
Furnace repair costs in Goodlettsville, Tennessee, typically range from $65 for a simple flame sensor replacement to over $2,900 for a heat exchanger. With a median home age of 38 years, many furnaces are nearing or past their expected lifespan, making repairs common. A diagnostic fee of $60–$175 applies. Tennessee requires a mechanical permit for furnace work, and load calculations are recommended for proper sizing. Given the mixed-humid climate and mostly electric heating, a heat pump is often a strong fit for replacements, and federal 25C tax credits (30%, up to $2,000 for qualifying heat pumps) can offset costs.
