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 Pantego?
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 Pantegoheating 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 PantegoHomeowners Trust Frosty's for Heating Repair
Pantego sees 20-30 freeze nights a year and the occasional hard multi-day freeze. Most Park Row, Pantego Meadows, and Stonegate homes run higher-end gas furnaces — Trane, Carrier, Lennox Elite — that are 10-20 years old and approaching first-major-service territory. The calls we get in December-January are dominated by three failures: cracked hot-surface ignitors ($400), dirty flame sensors ($400), and stuck or failed gas valves ($400-$1,200). Aging inducer motors ($500-$1,300) that grind on cold mornings are common in Pantego's 1990s-2000s installed furnaces.
Pantego's higher-end equipment often includes 2-stage or variable-speed gas furnaces with ECM blowers and communicating thermostats. Winter failures on these include communication board faults, ECM blower module issues, and 2-stage solenoid valve problems — all different from the simple single-stage diagnosis process. Every Pantego heating diagnostic includes a CO check at the supply register and a visual heat exchanger inspection. Heat exchangers on Pantego equipment generally hold up longer than on budget furnaces, but I still check every time.
For Pantego homes with heat pumps — occasionally seen in larger homes where dual-fuel systems (heat pump + gas backup) were specified — winter failures are different: failed defrost boards, bad reversing valves, outdoor TXV issues, and strip heat issues. Dual-fuel systems need careful control board programming to switch correctly between heat pump and gas at the right outdoor temperature (typically 35°F). Call (469) 254-0548 and we'll diagnose whatever's actually wrong for $85 (waived with repair).

Heating Repair FAQ for Pantego, TX
How much does furnace repair cost in Pantego, TX?
Diagnostic $85 flat (waived with repair). Common Pantego 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. Higher-end variable-speed furnaces may run a touch more on communication boards or ECM modules.
Do you service variable-speed furnaces in Pantego?
Yes. Trane XV95, Carrier Infinity 98, and Lennox SLP99V variable-speed gas furnaces are common in Pantego. Common failures are communication board faults, ECM blower module issues, and 2-stage solenoid valves. The $85 diagnostic includes full error code readout.
Do you repair heat pumps in Pantego?
Yes. Some larger Pantego homes run dual-fuel systems (heat pump + gas backup) for efficiency. Common heat pump failures include defrost board faults, failed reversing valves, outdoor TXV issues, and dual-fuel control board programming problems. We service Carrier, Trane, Goodman, Lennox, Rheem, and all major residential brands.
Why does my Pantego furnace keep shutting off after a few minutes?
Short cycling on a furnace is usually a dirty flame sensor (most common), overheating from restricted airflow, or a failing pressure switch. On higher-end Pantego equipment, communication board faults can also cause short cycling. The $85 diagnostic identifies the cause. Flame sensor cleaning runs $400 flat ($340 for members).
My Pantego furnace smells like something burning — should I call?
First time in the fall when you turn on the heat — that's usually dust burning off the heat exchanger and goes away in a few minutes. Normal. If the smell persists, smells electrical, or smells like gas, shut the system off and call us at (469) 254-0548. Gas smell means leave the house and call Atmos first.
