Furnace & AC Maintenance in Edina, MN
Edina tune-ups run $129 for a furnace or an AC, $219 for the pair. We clean, test and measure, then tell you what's wearing before we leave. In the Country Club District and Morningside, older basements get extra attention to the heat exchanger and chimney draft.
Tune-ups in Edina homes
Edina tune-ups cover a wide spread of equipment. In the rebuilt homes, two high-efficiency furnaces and two variable-speed air conditioners are common, and condensing furnaces have their own list: the condensate trap and drain flushed, the PVC intake and exhaust checked for nests and frost, and the inducer pressure switch tested. Two-stage and variable-speed equipment also gets its settings checked, because a system stuck in low stage can run for hours without the house ever feeling right.
In the Country Club District and Morningside, older basements often hold older equipment, and there we pay more attention to the heat exchanger, the chimney draft and the gas connection. Whole-home humidifiers are common in these plaster-wall houses, so the pad or panel gets replaced and the setting checked against the outdoor temperature to keep windows from streaming in January. Condensers on close lots get their coils cleaned and their clearances checked.

Edina's older houses hold heat poorly by modern standards. For what drives a quote locally, see HVAC cost in Edina.
Tune-ups in Edina: questions
How often should the humidifier on my Edina furnace be serviced?
Once a year, at the fall furnace tune-up, when we replace the water panel or pad and check the solenoid, drain and damper. Through the winter, keep the setting lower as it gets colder outside, roughly 25–35% in ordinary cold and lower in a deep freeze, or you'll see condensation on the windows. Many newer humidistats adjust automatically from an outdoor sensor.
Our Edina house has zoned heating with dampers. Does a tune-up check the zoning?
It can. Ask for the zoning to be checked when you book: running each zone, confirming its damper opens and closes, checking the bypass or static-pressure setting so the blower isn't straining when only one zone calls, and looking at the zone panel for fault lights. A damper stuck shut is a common reason one floor never catches up. Repairs are quoted before any work.
