Furnace & Heating Replacement Only When You Actually Need It
When a furnace is truly done, we replace it with dependable Goodman equipment, connect the gas line and venting the right way, and seal the ductwork tight. When it isn't done, we tell you so and fix it instead. Call any time, with emergency service across Gresham and the Portland metro.
A Full Changeout, Not Just a New Box in the Closet
A heating replacement is a big decision, and too often it's the first thing a homeowner hears. Plenty of furnaces get written off over a corroded part, an undersized breaker, or a problem nobody took the time to trace. Before we quote a new system, we test the old one, and if a repair will get you through more winters safely, that's what we'll recommend.
When replacement is the right call, we handle the whole changeout: the old unit out, the new furnace set, gas piping and venting connected, the supply plenum fitted and sealed at every seam, and the system fired up and tested before we leave. Not sure what kind of system fits your home? Our overview of heating systems walks through the options, and these signs it's time for a new furnace help you know when to call.

An Honest Diagnosis, Then a Clean Install
Two things separate a good heating replacement from an expensive mistake: knowing the old system really needs to go, and putting in equipment that will run reliably for years.
We Find the Real Problem Before We Quote a New Furnace
One customer came to us after another company called the system cracked, tagged it out, turned off the gas, and pushed for a replacement. We traced the actual fault to the condensate pump: after about ten years, its contacts and circuitry had corroded to the point it could not provide 24 volts downstream. We jumpered it, verified the system was not breaching, and the furnace could run again.
Another home had two companies say the system was too old to save. We found the breaker was undersized, verified everything, tuned up the electric furnace, and recharged the R22 in the heat pump, which saved the homeowner at least $400 a month on the heating bill.
If you've already been told replacement is your only option, read why a second opinion is worth it, and what a cracked heat exchanger really means for your safety.
Goodman Furnaces, Chosen for Reliability Over Bells and Whistles
We like Goodman. You still get a ten-year warranty, and the equipment is more basic than some other brands, with fewer bells and whistles. That's a good thing for reliability over the long term.
Other brands can cost twice as much, and you aren't getting twice the furnace, mostly just the name. Every home is different, though, so we match the equipment to the house, the ductwork, and the budget instead of forcing one answer on everybody.
Your Heating Replacement, Start to Finish
From the first phone call to a warm house, here's what to expect when you work with us.
1. Call Us
We start on the phone, talking through things like the fan and the breaker box to see whether a visit is even needed.
2. Onsite Diagnostic
A technician tests the system to find what actually failed. Onsite diagnostics are free; terms and conditions may apply, so call for details.
3. Repair or Replace, Explained
We show you what we found and where the money goes, so you can decide between a repair and a new system with the facts in front of you.
4. The Installation
Old unit out, new furnace set, gas line and venting connected, and the supply plenum fitted and sealed so heated air reaches your rooms.
5. Startup and Testing
We fire the system, check ignition, burners, and airflow, and make sure everything runs safely before we call the job done.
6. 30-Day Guarantee
If the system quits after we leave and the problem traces back to our work, we come back and make it right at no charge.
What You Get When a Technician Makes the Call
Many companies send a salesperson whose job is to sell a new unit. We'd rather send a technician who diagnoses the problem honestly, explains it plainly, and only replaces what truly needs replacing.

What Homeowners Ask Before Replacing a Furnace
Age alone doesn't decide it. We look at what actually failed, whether the repair is safe and sensible, and how the system has been running. Our article on the signs it's time for heat replacement covers what to watch for, and a diagnostic visit tells you for sure.
Yes. Get multiple quotes; it's always a good idea. If a company says replacing the whole system is your only option without showing you why, be cautious. We've saved furnaces that other companies had tagged out. Here's more on getting a second opinion.
We like Goodman. It comes with a ten-year warranty, and its simpler design is a good thing for long-term reliability. That said, the right equipment depends on the customer and the home, so we talk through options with you.
We offer free onsite diagnostics; terms and conditions may apply, and jobs more than 25 minutes away may carry a charge. Call (503) 334-9584 for details on your address.
If the system quits after we leave, we come back and reevaluate why. If it's a problem with our work, like a misdiagnosis, we make it right at no charge. If an older system develops a new, unrelated problem, that repair may be billed.
Often, yes. We've retrofitted homes that had central air ductwork but no cooling, installing the unit and coils and charging the system. See our AC replacement and installation page for more.
