Furnace Repair

Don’t get left in the cold! Is your furnace acting up, blowing cold air, or making too much noise? Our experienced team of professionals is here to keep your home warm and cozy. We repair all makes and models, and we will never try to sell you a service that you don’t need. Our technicians are honest and hard working, and we’re always transparent and fair about the work we do.

Furnace Replacement

Sometimes a repair is not sufficient to fix your furnace. Sometimes a new furnace is the most cost-effective and energy-efficient way to go. We will always be honest with you about a possible furnace replacement. We value our time and your money––we don’t want to perform repairs or service on an appliance that is in need of replacement.

If you do need a furnace replacement, we know how overwhelming it can be. Here are some of the frequently asked questions about furnaces that we get from some of our Saint Joseph, MN residents:

What Are The Different Types Of Furnaces?

Single Stage: A single-stage furnace has only one stage of operation. It can either be turned on or turned off.

Two Stage: A two-stage furnace has two settings––full and half speed. This is a more efficient way to heat and provides for better comfort, because it can move the air at a slower pace.

Variable Stage or Modulating: A variable-stage or modulating furnace modulates the speed and heat output based on the temperature outside and the desired comfort level. This furnace only works as much as you need it, making this type the most energy-efficient type of furnace.

What Is AFUE?

AFUE, or Annualized Fuel Utilization Efficiency, is a measure of furnace-heating efficiency. The higher the AFUE, the more efficient the furnace.

What Size Furnace Do I Need?

We can calculate the correct size furnace for your home. The number of BTUs, or British Thermal Units, needed to heat your home is dependent on a number of variables. Contrary to what you might think, a bigger furnace may not necessarily mean more heating power for your home. Call us at Precise Heating, and we can set up an appointment to calculate the furnace size you might need.

“I called to place a service call, as our furnace was not working. (I had called our 'regular' company and was told they could get me in in nine days (we pay a monthly fee for priority service – nine days is priority!?). I originally told they could get me in the schedule on Monday, but they were able to come the SAME DAY!! Repaired the problem (which probably should have been caught on the maintenance we just had done 2 months ago) and we have heat. I know it hasn't been that cold yet, but my husband is handicapped and spends a lot of his time indoors – which at 68 degrees is just way too chilly for him. Needless to say, I will be switching to Precise for our maintenance!! And btw – EVERYONE I talked to was so pleasant, its obvious these people care about their clients! YAY everyone!”

“We had a great experience working with Mike, Rick and Shane on the replacement of our furnace. They were very professional and answered all our questions. We would recommend them to everyone we know.”

“Working with Lyle and Shane was a great experience for my family. Lyle took the time to provide a thorough walkthrough and provided a number of options for our new system. There were no hidden fees or tricks. When it came time to schedule the install the Precise team got it right. Shane was amazing with the removal of the old system and the install of the new. All of our floors were covered, and installers / sales reps wore gloves and masks. Their attention to detail is bar none. Even the electrical company chosen did such an incredible job. Everyone completed their tasks as if this were their own personal home or project. Thermostat wires that were in the walls for 19 years were never used or found until this project; this level of attention to detail was appreciated and saved me money in the long run. Placing the AC unit in another location was handled very well. All of the refrigeration / electrical lines were run and hidden from plain site. This my wife really appreciated. I cannot thank Lyle, shane and the owner enough for their support. The system inside and out are quiet and efficient. Investing in such a system took some forethought and monetary investment. All of our HVAC and plumbing needs will be handled by Precise going forward. Thanks again to Precise as a whole for making this project a smooth transition from our old worn out system.”

“We have used Precise twice since the first of this year. First Rick Boyer came and provided us with an accurate estimate for a wall mounted boiler for our in-floor water heat on the lower level. Then we wanted to have some modifications made to our gas furnace for outside combustion air and better cold air returns on the lower level. Shaun Runge came and did a fantastic job. Very polite and very proficient. Ryan Monroe coordinated that project and was very professional. Oh, and the job came in less than the estimate. We will use no other contractor for our plumbing and HVAC service from now on. Tom Graham”

“We were in the unexpected market for a new a/c and furnace installation. We compared and spoke with three businesses. By far, Lyle was the most informative and professional sales person. He took the time to thoroughly review and measure our living space. He explained the various cooling/heating options that would be the most appropriate. We determined the best option for us was to hire Precise to install an air/furnace and ventilation filter system. The option for financing facilitated by Precise was a major plus as we were not expecting this expense. The manufacture quality of the A/C and furnace units were a contributing factor in our decision. The installation by Shawn and Sean on a cold winter day was commendable! They did a fabulous job installing the A/C and furnace units and welcomed questions throughout the installation. Our A/C unit needed to be moved to a different side of the home and placed in a much better location so it took more time being out in the cold elements. They were respectful of our home and ensured that everything remained clean and in order upon leaving. Lyle was present at the start of the installation and returned at the end of the installation that day to ensure everything was correct. He followed up two weeks later to review the thermostat control, air filtration system and furnace functions. Precise will return upon warmer weather to adjust the A/C unit and ensure it is calibrated correctly. Another nice feature is the office staff of Precise will process the EXCEL energy rebates on our behalf and the rebates will be directed to us and not the business. It was NICE to go with PRECISE! Highly recommended!”

“Everyone involved was very courteous and answered all of our questions. Very professional.”

Gas Furnace Replacement in Saint Joseph, MN 56374

“I will try to put into words my deep appreciation for those who worked with me and for me when my furnace developed problems and ultimately had to be replaced. I don’t know the names of all who had a part in keeping me comfortable for the four days I was without heat in the early part of December. I felt nothing but good vibes and concern from the office staff who fit me in on the same day and provided space heaters so I could keep the house reasonably warm, to the technician who tried to get the furnace started, to Lyle who met with me and got the order in for the new furnace and AC (ASAP), to the refund on the circuit board that was not the answer, to the installers who worked all day to install and make sure all was working properly and who left everything even cleaner than it was before they started! I know there is a reason my late husband and I began years ago with your incredible local company. Kudos to all!”

“We had our furnace & AC unit replaced the same day. Lyle, Shane and Shaun made the process so easy. Lyle explained all of our options and made sure we understood it all. Shane & Shaun did a fantastic job with the install process. Very impressed! We would recommend Precise to anyone!”

“Shane and Shawn replaced our 30 year old furnace and air conditioner. They answered all my questions and did a great job. I had a couple of requests while they worked and they respected my wishes, which I greatly appreciated. The new equipment is working wonderfully well. I am relieved to have a new furnace and not have to worry about the old one breaking down in the winter. Thank you!”

“We had Precise install our furnace just in time for the cold weather to hit! The Precise team was very thorough, clean, and professional. Shane took the time to instruct us in use of the thermostat, and made sure all of our needs were met before leaving. Our new furnace has made a big difference with even heat distribution! Our house feels warmer than ever.”
