Furnace repair cost by part.
Typical Murray repair pricing including parts and labor. A diagnostic fee usually applies and is often credited toward the work.
Furnace repair in Murray, Utah typically costs between $85 and $3,700+ depending on the component. With a median home age of 48 years, many homes have older furnaces that may need more frequent repairs. Local labor rates reflect the area's median income of $81,693, and a diagnostic fee of $80–$200 is standard. Utah requires a mechanical permit for furnace work, which adds to the overall cost.

For homeowners considering replacement, a gas furnace paired with an AC is a common choice, and federal tax credits up to $2,000 are available for qualifying heat pumps through 2025.
