Boiler Replacement Cost in Minnesota (2026)
What a new boiler costs in Minnesota: national ranges, cast iron vs condensing vs combi, steam vs hot water, chimney venting, and why the radiators stay.
Read the guideWhat repairs and replacements cost, and what moves the number.
These guides put numbers on the jobs homeowners ask about most: capacitors, blower motors, refrigerant, furnace and AC replacements, heat pumps, mini-splits and permits. Where a figure is our own published price, we say so. Where it's a typical national range from a cost guide, we name the source, because prices vary by house and by region.
Our own service call is a $79 trip charge, waived when you approve the repair, and every repair is quoted in writing before work starts. The full list of our published prices is on the pricing page.

Read the guideA service call is a $79 trip charge. The technician finds the problem and gives you a written, flat-rate price for the repair before doing any work. If you approve the repair, the $79 is waived. If you decide not to go ahead, the $79 is all you owe. The price is the same in every town we serve.
No. A service call in Red Wing, Monticello or Hudson carries the same $79 trip charge as one in Minneapolis, waived when you approve the repair, and there's no mileage fee added for distance. Tune-ups and repairs are priced the same way everywhere we go, in Minnesota and in Western Wisconsin. The full list of towns is on our service areas page.
A furnace tune-up or an AC tune-up starts at $129. If you want both done in one visit, the combined furnace and AC tune-up is $219. Maintenance visits generally run $129–$349, depending on the equipment and what's attached to it. A boiler or a system with a humidifier and air cleaner takes more time than a basic furnace. Maintenance plans are available on request. See maintenance and tune-ups for more.
Our published ranges: furnace replacement $4,500–$9,500 (roughly $4,500–$6,000 for an 80% AFUE furnace and $6,500–$9,500 for a 96–98% model), central AC $5,200–$9,800, heat pumps $7,500–$14,500 and ductless mini-splits $4,200–$12,500. Where your job lands depends on the equipment, venting, ductwork and what the house needs. You get a written quote before any work starts. More detail is on our pricing page.
We take cash, checks and credit cards. Financing is available on new installs, which helps when a furnace quits in January and a replacement wasn't in this year's budget. We don't list financing rates or terms on the site. Ask about them when we give you the written quote for the install, and compare them against paying another way.
Yes. For repairs, the technician gives you a flat-rate price in writing after the diagnosis and before touching anything, and nothing happens until you approve it. Because the price is flat-rate, a repair that takes longer than expected doesn't cost you more. For replacements, you get a written quote based on a Manual J load calculation for your house.
