If your furnace is blowing cold air, short-cycling, or making noise it should not make, call (747) 966-3037 and a live person will answer, day or night.

Why Meadowsweet Heating & Air Is Leesburg’s Preferred Furnace Repair Company
Leesburg homeowners call us because we show up prepared for what this city’s housing stock actually throws at a furnace. The 1950s-to-1980s concrete block homes that make up so much of Leesburg’s residential core were built for a different era, with single-zone ductwork that has spent decades fighting central Florida’s humidity. Our technicians carry static pressure gauges and load calculation tools on every call because we know that a furnace that cannot breathe through the original ducts will keep failing, no matter how many parts get swapped.
Luis Serrano leads our team with a rule that sets the tone for every furnace repair: explain the price before the work, in writing, and leave the house cleaner than we found it. That is not a slogan. It is the Cedarwell Care Promise, and it has been the operating standard since 2004. Every tech who steps into a Leesburg home is background-checked, uniformed, and trained on the C.A.R.E. values code, which means shoe covers on, drop cloths down, and a photo of the clean-up sent before we leave. Families with kids and pets do not have to worry about what the crew is tracking across the living room floor while the furnace gets diagnosed.
Gas Furnace Repair in Leesburg
Gas Furnace Repair in Leesburg comes down to one thing most of the time: whether the furnace can pull enough air through aging ducts to keep itself from tripping safety switches. A gas furnace that worked fine for 25 years may start failing now, not because the heat exchanger or gas valve gave out, but because the blower motor is straining against a static pressure problem that has quietly worsened as ducts have sagged, separated, or filled with decades of dust in unconditioned attic space. We see this pattern constantly in the block homes along Main Street, around Lake Griffin Road, and throughout the 34748 and 34788 zip codes.
When you call about a gas furnace in Leesburg, the diagnostic is part of the repair price, not a separate charge layered on after the fact. A typical gas furnace repair here runs $150 to $700, covering the diagnostic plus the most common parts: ignitors, flame sensors, gas valves, blower motors, and control boards. We never start a repair without a written price in your hand.
Ignitor and Flame Sensor Work
A furnace that clicks on, tries to light, then shuts down is usually a failed ignitor or a dirty flame sensor. On a cold Leesburg night in January, you do not want to wait overnight for a diagnosis. Our techs carry ignitors and flame sensors for Trane, Lennox, Goodman, and Rheem furnaces on the truck, which means most gas furnace repair calls are finished the same day.
Blower Motor and Limit Switch Problems
When a furnace overheats and trips its high-limit switch, the root cause is often not the switch itself but the blower motor laboring against undersized return ducts. We do not just replace the switch. We measure return air temperature and static pressure to find out why the furnace is running hot, then give you the fix that stops the short-cycling instead of putting a bandage on it.
Furnace Tune Up in Leesburg
A Furnace Tune Up in Leesburg is not a quick filter swap. Because Lake Harris and Lake Griffin keep ambient humidity elevated year-round, the condensate drain lines on furnaces with coils above them grow algae in a matter of weeks, not months. A backed-up drain in a slab-foundation Leesburg home can flood living space before anyone notices a puddle, which is why our tune-ups include algae treatment tabs in every drain pan and a documented check of every drain line. The tune-up itself runs $80 to $200, and it should happen once a year, ideally in the fall before the first real cold snap.
We measure flue draft, check the heat exchanger for cracks, test every safety switch, and inspect the gas pressure at the valve. In older Leesburg homes with original ductwork, we also check static pressure because that number tells us whether your furnace has been quietly overworking itself for years without anyone noticing. A $120 tune-up that catches a failing capacitor or a hairline crack in a heat exchanger is the cheapest furnace repair you will ever buy.
Combustion and Carbon Monoxide Checks
Any gas furnace tune-up should include a carbon monoxide check at the flue and inside the home. We test the heat exchanger for cracks and the venting for blockages, because a furnace burning in an older Leesburg home with original chimney or vent piping needs to exhaust properly or not run at all.
Drain Line and Condensate Service
Leesburg’s lake-driven humidity means condensate drains clog faster than manufacturers’ schedules account for. Our tune-up includes clearing the drain line, treating the pan with algae tabs, and testing the float switch, all included in the $80 to $200 flat range.
Trusted Brands We Service in Leesburg
We repair gas furnaces from the brands that dominate Leesburg’s housing stock. Trane and Lennox units are common in the newer subdivisions around Fruitland Park and along the Highway 441 corridor, while Goodman and Rheem show up constantly in the manufactured and mobile homes throughout the semi-rural pockets of Lake County. Our trucks carry common ignitors, flame sensors, blower motors, and control boards for all four brands, which means we do not have to run to a parts house in Tavares while your house sits cold. That local parts stocking is a big reason our Leesburg response times stay short even during the stretch of January nights when every furnace in the city decides to quit at once.
Common Furnace Repair Problems We See in Leesburg Homes
- Short-cycling on high-limit switches: The original single-zone ductwork in those 1950s-to-1980s concrete block homes was sized for heating equipment that moved less air than modern furnaces. When a like-for-like swap drops in a new furnace with the same tonnage, the restrictive ducts push static pressure too high and the furnace overheats within minutes. We fix this with a load calculation and, where the house needs it, a properly sized return drop, not another sensor swap.
- Condensate drain backups from lake humidity: Evaporation off Lake Harris and Lake Griffin keeps Leesburg’s ambient humidity higher than comparable inland cities, and that moisture does not just sit in the air. It grows algae in drain pans within weeks during a hot, wet summer. A backed-up drain on a furnace with an A-coil above it can shut the whole system down and flood a slab home before the homeowner notices anything wrong.
- Undersized return air on original ductwork: Older block homes throughout the 34748 zip code often have a single return grille in a hallway, far too small for the blower motors in modern furnaces. That starving return air is what burns out blower motors early and makes back bedrooms run 8 to 10 degrees cooler than the living room.
- Failed capacitors and ignition boards after long cooling seasons: Central Florida furnaces do not get the long summer rest that northern furnaces do. Leesburg’s year-round cooling season means systems are cycling almost constantly, and capacitors and ignition boards that would have lasted 20 years up north wear out in a fraction of that time here. A routine fall tune-up catches these before the first cold morning turns into a no-heat call.

FAQs About Furnace Repair in Leesburg
Yes, but we will tell you honestly if that is the right move. In the 1950s-to-1980s concrete block homes that dominate Leesburg, the original single-zone ductwork is often undersized for a modern furnace, and a like-for-like swap can leave the back bedrooms colder than they were before. We run a static pressure test and a load calculation first. If the ducts will work, we replace the furnace and nothing else. If they will not, we show you the numbers and explain what a properly sized return drop would fix, then give you a written price for either path. Call (747) 966-3037 and we will put eyes on your specific house.
Because the repair that was done treated the symptom, not the cause. In most Leesburg homes we see, short-cycling is a high-limit switch tripping because the furnace cannot pull enough air through the original ductwork. A tech who replaces the switch without fixing the airflow will be back in a week. We measure static pressure and return air temperature as part of every no-heat diagnostic, and we show you exactly why the furnace is overheating. The fix is often a larger return drop or a filter grille sized for the tonnage you actually have, not another part rattled into place.
Once a year, in the fall before the first cold snap. Leesburg’s lake-driven humidity from Lake Harris and Lake Griffin means condensate drains grow algae in weeks, not months, and a fall tune-up with algae treatment tabs and a full drain line clearing is the single best thing you can do to avoid a no-heat call in January. Our tune-up runs $80 to $200 and includes a combustion test, a carbon monoxide check, and a written report of what we found, not a sales list.
We do. Many Leesburg homes have a gas furnace paired with an air handler for heat strips, and a lot of the newer construction around Fruitland Park and Lady Lake uses heat pumps instead. Our techs carry parts for both, and we test the reversing valve, auxiliary heat strips, and defrost controls on heat pumps the same way we test gas valves and heat exchangers on furnaces. If you are not sure which system you have, call (747) 966-3037 and describe what you hear and feel; we will help you sort it out before the truck even rolls.
Furnace repair in Leesburg typically costs $150 to $700, covering the diagnostic and the most common part replacements like ignitors, flame sensors, blower motors, and control boards.
