Furnace repair estimate: seems a tad high...
Got a $3800 estimate for:
Replacing blower motor ($2100)
Cleaning the blower wheel ($1130) and
$400 to replace a single run capacitor.
Which comes out to a nice $3780 total after"10% off"
While I'm far, far from an HVAC specialist, this seems way, way inflated, even for the state of Connecticut.
Just the cleaning quote alone seems ridiculous: it is literally clearing the blower wheel with a brush or compressed air, not replacing it. It is hard to see how that can cost $1130....
Any opinion would be greatly appreciated...
