Furnace and heat pump heating repair for Pooler homes, from Godley Station to Savannah Quarters. Diagnosed the same day and priced before we start.
Furnace repair in Pooler GA from Coastline Heating & Air starts with an $89 diagnostic that rolls into the repair when you book same-day. Most furnace repairs land between $150 and $800, quoted upfront, with 24/7 no-heat service across Pooler and Chatham County.
The first cold night of the year is when Pooler furnaces fail. These are the calls we run most from October through February.
A cracked hot surface igniter, a dirty flame sensor, or a stuck gas valve. The igniter and flame sensor are the two most common furnace parts we replace in Pooler.
On a gas furnace this is usually a tripped high-limit switch from a clogged filter. On a heat pump it is often a reversing valve stuck in cooling or a system running on backup heat strips.
The furnace lights, runs two or three minutes, and shuts down. A dirty flame sensor, a restricted filter, or a failing pressure switch are the usual causes.
The fan moves air but nothing warm comes out. We check the control board, the inducer motor, and the ignition sequence before touching anything expensive.
Dust burning off at first start is normal for a few minutes. A yellow flame or a smell that lingers is not. We treat both as a safety call and check the heat exchanger and carbon monoxide levels.
A bang at startup points to delayed ignition. A squeal points to blower bearings or a belt. A rattle is usually a loose panel or a failing inducer motor.
Coastline Heating & Air is family-owned and based in Richmond Hill at 18411 GA-144. We dispatch from there and reach most of Pooler in under 30 minutes, whether the call comes from Godley Station, The Highlands, Settlers Landing, Westbrook, Hamilton Grove, Forest Lakes, or the newer subdivisions out toward Bloomingdale.
The visit starts with an $89 diagnostic. The technician runs the furnace through a full cycle, reads the control board's fault history, checks the flame sensor, igniter, pressure switch, and limit switch, and inspects the heat exchanger. You get a written price before any repair starts, and the diagnostic rolls into that price when you book same-day.
Our trucks carry the parts that fail most on the furnace and heat pump brands common in Pooler homes, so most repairs finish on the first visit. Technicians are NATE certified and EPA 608 certified, and every heating repair ends with a carbon monoxide check. If you ever wonder whether an air conditioner or heater can produce CO, our guide on carbon monoxide and air conditioners answers it plainly.

The ranges below are the same ones we publish for all of Coastal Georgia. Your written quote is the number that counts.
| Repair | What it usually is | Typical range |
|---|---|---|
| Thermostat, capacitor, or flame sensor | The small parts behind most no-heat calls | $150 to $350 |
| Ignition control module | Electronic ignition problems | $200 to $400 |
| Blower motor or control board | The mid-range repairs | $300 to $700 |
| Gas valve replacement | Safety valve or gas supply issues | $400 to $800 |
| Heat exchanger replacement | Usually the point where replacement wins | $1,000 to $2,500+ |
Use the $5,000 rule before approving a big repair: multiply the furnace's age in years by the repair quote. Under $5,000, repair it. Over $5,000, put the money toward a new system instead. A 9-year-old furnace with a $300 igniter comes to $2,700, so you fix it. An 18-year-old furnace with a $1,400 heat exchanger comes to $25,200, so you stop paying into it. Our furnace repair cost guide for Coastal Georgia walks through more examples, and our furnace replacement page lists 2026 installed costs and what a proper quote includes.
Many Pooler homes heat with a heat pump rather than a gas furnace. In heating mode a heat pump has its own failure list: a reversing valve that will not shift, a defrost board that leaves the outdoor coil frozen solid, auxiliary heat strips that run all day and triple the power bill, and a compressor that will not start on a cold morning.
The most common call is a homeowner who sees steam or frost on the outdoor unit and assumes it is broken. A short defrost cycle with steam is normal. A coil that stays iced over is not. Our heat pump defrost cycle guide explains the difference, and our technicians repair defrost boards and sensors on every major brand.
Ductless mini splits are heat pumps too. If a wall-mounted unit is blinking an error code or will not heat, see our ductless mini split repair page. For heat pump work on the Savannah side of the county, our heat pump repair in Savannah GA page covers it.
A furnace that quits at 9 PM in January is an emergency, and we answer the phone. Coastline Heating & Air runs 24/7 emergency heating repair across Pooler and Chatham County, and most emergency repairs run $150 to $500, quoted before we start. Nights, weekends, and holidays included.
If you smell gas, do not troubleshoot. Leave the house, then call us from outside. If a carbon monoxide alarm sounds, do the same. Everything else, from a furnace that will not light to a heat pump stuck on backup heat, can wait for the technician to arrive.
For the Savannah side of the county, our emergency HVAC repair in Savannah GA page lists what counts as an emergency and what it costs, and our heating and furnace repair in Savannah GA page covers routine heating calls there. Pooler businesses with rooftop units or packaged systems are served through our commercial HVAC in Savannah GA team.
