Furnace Services in Kansas City

When a Kansas City winter hits, your furnace isn't optional — it's essential. At L&M Heating & Cooling, we repair, maintain, and install furnaces for homeowners across the KC metro. Whether your furnace is making a strange noise, due for a tune-up, or has finally reached the end of its life, we're here to help you figure out the right next step.

We respond within 2 hours. No pressure, no obligation.
Gas Furnaces
- Powered by natural gas
- Typically heat faster and more efficiently in very cold climates
- Lower operating costs in most KC homes where gas rates are favorable
- Require proper venting and carbon monoxide safety checks
- Most common furnace type in the Kansas City area
Furnaces come in two main types — gas and electric — and both have their place depending on your home's setup, your utility costs, and your comfort priorities. Here's a quick breakdown to help you understand what you have (or what might make sense if you're replacing):
Gas vs. Electric Furnaces — What's the Difference?
Not sure which type you have or which makes sense for your home? That's exactly what our free in-home evaluation is for — we'll walk you through it with no pressure.
Electric Furnaces
- Powered by electricity — no gas line required
- Simpler installation with no venting needed
- Generally lower upfront cost
- Can have higher operating costs depending on local electric rates
- A solid option for homes without natural gas access
Furnace Acting Up? Let's Get It Sorted.
A furnace that's struggling in the middle of a KC winter isn't something you want to wait on. L&M's technicians are experienced with both gas and electric furnaces of all makes and models, and we'll give you a straight answer on what's wrong and what it'll take to fix it.
Common issues we repair:
- No heat or insufficient heat — the most obvious sign something's wrong
- Short cycling — furnace kicks on and off too frequently
- Strange noises — banging, rattling, squealing, or rumbling
- Ignition or pilot light problems — important to address promptly
- Blower motor issues — for when air isn't moving through your home properly
- Cracked heat exchanger — a serious safety concern we check for every time
- Thermostat or electrical failures — sometimes the fix is simpler than you expect
Same-day and emergency service available — because a furnace going out in January can't wait until next week.
A Little Maintenance Goes a Long Way
A well-maintained furnace can last 15–20 years. One that's been neglected tends to break down earlier, cost more to run, and could give out at the worst possible time. We recommend scheduling a furnace tune-up every fall before the temperatures drop so your system is ready when you need it most.
What our furnace tune-up includes:
Heat Exchanger
✓
Inspect and test the heat exchanger — critical for gas furnaces to ensure safe operation.
Burners
✓
Clean burners and combustion chamber for efficient, complete fuel combustion.
Air Filter
✓
Check and replace air filter — a clogged filter is a common cause of furnace problems.
Ignition System
✓
Test ignition system and safety controls to make sure everything fires up reliably.
Flue & Venting
✓
Inspect the flue and venting to confirm safe exhaust of combustion gases.
Full Efficiency Check
✓
Lubricate moving parts and test overall airflow and system efficiency.

Another company told me my 24-year-old furnace couldn't be repaired and recommended replacing the entire system. Morgan found the needed part within an hour, explained all my options with zero pressure, and ultimately installed a better HVAC system at a lower cost than the competing quote. Exceptional service from start to finish.

Morgan was exceptionally thorough, providing detailed notes and pictures to explain everything he was seeing. He sat down with us and actually taught us a lot about the basic workings needed to make an informed decision about next steps. He presented three great options to address some pretty big issues, and his pricing is way better than other companies that are more about money than people. We'll definitely be sticking with L&M!

Morgan is as nice and honest as they come. AC and furnace swap in 6 hours, very well done and well under competitor quotes. Give them a call!

I already had two HVAC companies in line to inspect our situation and was looking for a third. Morgan not only met my expectations but exceeded them. He was able to fit us in on VERY short notice and took so much time actually explaining everything to us as he went along in his inspection. His knowledge base alone is reason enough to consider L&M Heating and Cooling. Beyond that, you are getting an individual who obviously cares about the work he is doing and the people he is serving. L&M has been added to my preferred vendor list and shared with my team of Realtors serving all of Missouri & Kansas.

Mitchell M.
L&M Heating and Cooling provided me an honest assessment of the condition of my units. After consulting with Morgan, we decided the best solution was to replace the unit and within 24 hours from the call, he had a complete heating & cooling install finished and operating perfectly. Morgan even went out of his way to repair damages not in the initial estimation 'because they weren't up to his standard.' A true professional in every way! One of the best experiences I've had with a contractor.
