Cracked Heat Exchanger: Safety First
A cracked heat exchanger means combustion gases — including carbon monoxide — can leak into your home's air supply. We NEVER repair a cracked heat exchanger. The only safe fix is a full furnace replacement. If I find a crack during diagnostic, I red-tag the unit on the spot and show you our three replacement tiers. Learn more about CO safety at the EPA.

Join Frosty ClubWhat Are the Most Common Heating Problems in Hurst?
Texas winters are mild, but furnaces still need regular service — and when they fail on a 28°F January morning, they tend to fail all at once. Here's what I see most often on Hurstheating calls, and what each one typically costs to fix.
Furnace won't ignite
Failed hot-surface ignitor ($400) or coated flame sensor ($400). Both are same-day fixes. The $85 diagnostic identifies the exact cause.
Blowing cold air instead of hot
Usually a failed ignitor, bad flame sensor, or a stuck gas valve. We run a combustion analysis to confirm the exact cause before quoting.
Loud buzzing or grinding
Dying inducer motor ($500-$1,300) — the draft fan pulling combustion gases through the heat exchanger. Replace before it takes out the control board.
Short cycling (on/off/on/off)
Dirty flame sensor, failing limit switch, or restricted airflow. Can be an early warning of a heat exchanger issue — we diagnose carefully.
Gas smell or CO alarm
EMERGENCY — leave the house, call Atmos Energy at 866-322-8667, then call us. We locate the leak source and repair or red-tag as required.
Cracked heat exchanger
Carbon monoxide risk — NEVER repaired. Full furnace replacement required for safety. We confirm with combustion analyzer and bore-scope inspection.
Why HurstHomeowners Trust Frosty's for Heating Repair
North Texas doesn't get Chicago winters, but Hurst still sees 20-30 freeze nights a year — and that's enough to expose every weak point in a furnace that sat unused from April through October. December and January calls in Hurst are dominated by three failures: cracked hot-surface ignitors ($400), dirty flame sensors ($400), and stuck or failed gas valves ($400-$1,200). All three show the same symptom: furnace tries to light, fails after 3 attempts, goes into lockout. For 1960s-80s Bellaire and Pipeline homes still running 20+ year old furnaces, I also see a lot of aging inducer motors ($500-$1,300) that grind on startup or fail to spin up at all.
The heat exchanger is the failure I worry about most in old Hurst furnaces. A cracked heat exchanger leaks combustion gases — including carbon monoxide — directly into your supply air, which means I'm not repairing it, I'm condemning the furnace and quoting replacement. Every diagnostic we do in Hurst includes a CO check at the supply register and a visual inspection of the heat exchanger where we can access it. If I see rust, scale, or flame impingement, I tell you straight. I'd rather lose a repair job than let a family breathe CO in their sleep.
If your Hurst home has a heat pump instead of a gas furnace — more common in newer Cottonwood Bend builds — winter failures look different: failed defrost boards, bad reversing valves, and TXV issues on the outdoor unit. Heat pumps run briefly in cooling mode during defrost cycles to melt ice off the outdoor coil, so if you see steam coming off the outdoor unit on a cold morning, that's normal — not a problem. Call (469) 254-0548 and we'll diagnose whatever's actually wrong for $85 flat, waived with repair.

Heating Repair FAQ for Hurst, TX
How much does furnace repair cost in Hurst, TX?
Diagnostic $85 flat (waived with repair). Common Hurst furnace repairs: hot-surface ignitor $400 ($340 for Frosty Club members), flame sensor $400 ($340), gas valve $400-$1,200 ($340-$1,020), inducer motor $500-$1,300 ($425-$1,105), pressure switch $250-$550. Flat-rate pricing — you see the total before we start.
Is my furnace safe to run if the heat exchanger is cracked?
No. A cracked heat exchanger leaks combustion gases — including carbon monoxide — into your supply air. We don't repair cracked heat exchangers because they can't be safely welded back to factory spec. Instead, we quote a full furnace replacement. Every Hurst diagnostic includes a heat exchanger visual inspection and CO test at the supply register.
Do you repair heat pumps in Hurst?
Yes. Newer Cottonwood Bend and Mid-Cities builds often have heat pumps instead of gas furnaces. Common heat pump failures include defrost board faults, failed reversing valves, and outdoor TXV issues. We service Carrier, Trane, Goodman, Lennox, Rheem, and all major residential brands.
Why does my Hurst furnace keep shutting off after a few minutes?
Short cycling on a furnace usually means a dirty flame sensor (most common), overheating from restricted airflow (clogged filter or dirty blower wheel), or a failing pressure switch. The $85 diagnostic identifies which. Flame sensor cleaning runs $400 flat ($340 for members) and solves about 60% of these calls on older Hurst systems.
My Hurst furnace smells like something burning — should I call?
First time in the fall — that's usually dust burning off the heat exchanger and clears up in a few minutes. Normal. If the smell persists, is distinctly electrical, or smells like gas, shut the system off at the thermostat and call us at (469) 254-0548. Electrical smells mean an overheating motor or wire; gas smell means leave the house and call the gas company first.
