Furnace & AC Maintenance in Andover, MN
An Andover tune-up is $129 for one furnace or one air conditioner, and $219 when we do both on one visit. We clean, test and measure gas and propane furnaces alike, then report plainly on what is wearing.
Tune-ups in Andover homes
Andover's mix of fuel and lot size shapes the visit. Most subdivisions burn CenterPoint natural gas, but some houses on larger lots sit past the mains and run propane, so we service both. On acreage lots, wind drifts snow against side-wall vents and heat pump outdoor units, and we look at the terminations before winter.
In the 1980s and 90s split-entries, the original builder furnace is often the issue, so the heat exchanger inspection and carbon monoxide reading matter. The 2000s condensing furnaces get drain traps flushed and PVC vents checked for leaks or loose joints. In spring, an air conditioner that is oversized can cool in short bursts without drying the air, which is a common complaint near Crooked Lake and Round Lake. We measure run cycles and airflow, and rinse grass clippings from condenser coils.

Tune-ups in Andover: questions
Do you tune up propane furnaces on Andover acreage lots?
Yes. The price is the same $129, and the visit adds a check of the gas valve, burner and regulator on the LP side. We also look at vent terminations for drifting snow. We do not fill tanks, so watch your gauge and order your fill before a cold stretch.
Why is my Andover basement musty even though the AC runs?
Often the air conditioner is cycling in short bursts, so it cools without removing much moisture. A tune-up can check charge, airflow and the coil, and tell you whether the system is oversized or just dirty. Walkout lower levels near the lakes may also need a dehumidifier.
