Furnace repair cost by part.
Typical Leesburg repair pricing including parts and labor. A diagnostic fee usually applies and is often credited toward the work.
Furnace repair in Leesburg, Virginia, typically costs between $80 and $3,500+, depending on the component needing replacement. Labor and diagnostic fees add $75–$200. With a median home age of 34 years, many furnaces are approaching or past their expected lifespan, making repairs common. Virginia requires mechanical permits and inspections for furnace replacements, and Manual J/S load calculations are recommended.

For long-term efficiency, a heat pump may be a strong fit, especially with the federal 25C tax credit available.

- SEER2 minimum14.3 SEER2 (Southeast)

- Load calculationRecommended

- Good to know—
Virginia uses the statewide Uniform Statewide Building Code (USBC/IECC); local mechanical permits and inspections are required for AC/heat pump/furnace changeouts, and Manual J/S sizing is recommended practice though not strictly enforced.
