Furnace Repair in Lyons

Starting September 12, 2013, flooding cut off every road into town and disrupted water and sewer service. In flooded homes, furnaces, water heaters and duct systems often had to be replaced during the rebuild, and that equipment is now more than a decade old, which is when ignitors, flame sensors, inducer motors and blower capacitors start to fail.

Furnaces that were repaired rather than replaced after the flood deserve a closer look. Water exposure can corrode gas valves, burners, control boards and the bottom of the heat exchanger, and the damage can show up years later. If your equipment sat in floodwater and is still in service, we'll inspect those parts carefully.

The town's sandstone historic district includes buildings from the early 1870s through 1917. Thick stone walls and older chimneys were not designed for modern furnaces. A mid-efficiency furnace venting into an unlined or oversized masonry chimney can draft poorly and produce condensation that damages the chimney from inside.

We check draft, inspect flue connectors and test combustion and carbon monoxide on every furnace call. If the venting is the real problem, we'll explain the options, such as a liner or a sealed-combustion furnace that vents through the wall.

We read fault codes, run the furnace through a full cycle and test each safety device. We measure gas pressure, temperature rise and static pressure and inspect the condensate system on high-efficiency units. Our trucks carry parts for Trane, Lennox, Carrier, Goodman, Bryant, Rheem and other common brands.

You'll get a flat-rate price before we begin, there are no overtime fees, and the diagnostic is free when you approve the repair. Emergency service is available 24/7.

If a furnace needs replacing, the Town of Lyons uses SAFEbuilt for all building department services, and a Town contractor license is required to pull the permit. Equipment in the floodplain may also need a floodplain development permit, and the Town adopted the 2024 ICC codes effective July 1, 2026.

Because Lyons runs its own electric utility and lists local efficiency rebates, a heat pump paired with a gas or propane furnace is worth considering at replacement time. The town has also been a partner in Boulder County's Switch Together heat pump program. We'll explain how each option would work in your home.
