Every service call with Central Minnesota Heating and Cooling, owned by Eric Brown, starts the same way: a $79 trip charge, a diagnosis you can see, and a written price before any work. Approve the repair and the trip charge comes off the bill. Repairs carry a written 1-year parts-and-labor warranty, and new systems carry 2 years on labor from us on top of the manufacturer's parts warranty. The price list is the same in Minneapolis, Saint Paul and every town within about 50 miles.

Heating

A furnace here runs from October into May, so most of our winter calls are furnace repairs: igniters, flame sensors, pressure switches, inducer and blower motors, and control boards. We also work on hot-water and steam boilers in older Minneapolis and Saint Paul homes, and replace furnaces and boilers that have reached the end, sized with a Manual J load calculation.
