When Sarah and her brother Marcus inherited their childhood home, it came with more than just memories—it came with a long to-do list. The old house had good bones, but plenty of wear. One of the first things they noticed during the first cold snap was the furnace—an aging Goodman unit their dad had installed over two decades ago. It still worked, mostly, but it ran loud, unevenly, and left the upstairs freezing most mornings.
They brought in our Fast HVAC technician to take a look. “It’s impressive this old Goodman is still going,” he said. “But you’re losing efficiency and comfort. Might be time to think about an upgrade.” Sarah and Marcus didn’t have to deliberate long. That furnace had been part of their lives growing up—quietly doing its job year after year. “It was good to us,” Marcus said. “Let’s stick with Goodman.” A few days later, a new, high-efficiency Goodman furnace was in place. The difference was immediate: even heat, quieter operation, and lower energy use. As they sat in the living room sipping coffee and watching snow fall outside, Sarah said with a smile, “Feels like home again—but better.” Goodman had earned their trust once, and it had again.
Goodman furnaces trace their roots back to 1975, when Harold V. Goodman founded the Goodman Manufacturing Company in Houston, Texas. Originally focused on producing flexible air ducts and plastic blade registers, the company expanded into HVAC equipment in the early 1980s with the goal of offering reliable, affordable heating and cooling solutions for American homeowners. Goodman quickly gained a reputation for manufacturing high-quality, cost-effective furnaces and air conditioners that were easy to install and service, helping the brand grow rapidly in both residential and light commercial markets.
Over the years, Goodman has remained committed to value and durability, producing energy-efficient furnaces designed to deliver long-term performance. In 2012, the company was acquired by Daikin Industries, a global HVAC leader based in Japan. This acquisition brought advanced technology, improved manufacturing capabilities, and a new level of innovation to the Goodman brand. Today, Goodman furnaces are still proudly assembled in the U.S., and the brand continues to be a popular choice for homeowners and contractors looking for dependable heating solutions that balance performance with affordability.

Service for Older Models. Have an older Goodman furnace? No problem. Our skilled technicians are experienced in working with legacy models and have access to a large local inventory of genuine Goodman parts. We’re ready to restore your comfort with fast, expert service—no matter how old your system is.
It’s 15–20 Years Old. Most furnaces last 15–20 years. If yours is getting up there in age, it’s likely losing efficiency and may be nearing the end of its lifespan—even if it’s still running.
An older or failing furnace often runs longer and harder to heat your home, leading to higher utility costs.
If you’re calling a technician every season (or more), the repair bills can quickly add up. A new unit might save money in the long run.
Cold spots or inconsistent temperatures can indicate your furnace is no longer distributing heat properly.
Is your furnace turning on and off more often than it used to? This could signal mechanical issues or failing components.
Banging, popping, rattling, or squealing are signs of wear—and potential failure.
An older furnace may struggle to filter air effectively, leading to dust, dry air, or increased allergy symptoms.
A yellow or flickering pilot light may indicate carbon monoxide or combustion issues—this requires immediate attention.
If your home still feels cold even with the furnace running, or it takes longer to heat, the system may be losing efficiency.
Fast HVAC is an authorized installer and servicer of Goodman furnaces. This means your furnace is installed to the manufacturer’s specifications. Most importantly, your warranty is intact when installed by our pros. If your Goodman furnace needs service, our pros will be able to pinpoint the issue, with authentic Goodman replacements parts from in-stock inventory.
The technician starts with a walkthrough of your home to understand its layout, size, and insulation quality. They'll ask questions about your current heating performance, any comfort issues (cold rooms, drafts, high bills), and your preferences for energy efficiency or smart technology
To ensure proper sizing, the technician performs a Manual J load calculation. This includes the square footage of your home, window types and insulation levels, ceiling height, number of occupants, and local climate data. This calculation helps avoid installing a furnace that’s too big (wastes energy) or too small (can’t keep up).
They inspect your existing ductwork for leaks or gaps, sizing and airflow capability, and cleanliness or obstructions.
Based on the assessment, the technician will recommend furnace models (standard vs. high-efficiency Goodman models), discuss features like variable-speed blowers or smart thermostats, and present costs, rebate options, and warranties.
For your Goodman furnace, the HVAC technician will guide you on energy efficiency ratings (AFUE), expected utility savings, return on investment, and compatibility with future HVAC upgrades
Once you've selected a system, the technician provides a detailed estimate, schedules installation, and explains what to expect before, during, and after the install.
Servicing a Goodman home furnace involves a step-by-step inspection and tune-up to ensure it’s running safely, efficiently, and reliably—especially before the heating season kicks in. Here’s how our professional HVAC technician typically handles it:
Before starting, the technician will shut off power and gas to the furnace, follow Goodman manufacturer guidelines for safety and access, and wear protective gear and follow proper ventilation protocols.
Dust and debris can affect performance. The tech will clean the burners for even flame distribution, vacuum out the blower compartment, remove and clean the blower motor and fan blades if needed, and check and clean the flame sensor and ignitor.
The technician will carefully inspect the heat exchanger for cracks or corrosion (a critical safety check), burners for buildup or misalignment, wiring and connections for fraying, corrosion, or loose fittings, and the belts and moving parts for wear and proper tension.
A clogged filter can reduce efficiency and strain the system. The tech will check the air filter, and clean or replace it depending on condition
Our HVAC technician will test your thermostat to ensure it communicates properly with the furnace, the cycle timing is correct (on/off intervals), and the settings are calibrated correctly for comfort and efficiency.
With everything clean and inspected, the technician will restart the system, monitor startup behavior, flame pattern, and blower operation, check gas pressure, voltage readings, and amp draws, and listen for abnormal noises or vibration
