Furnace repair estimate: seems a tad high...

Got a $3800 estimate for:

  1. Replacing blower motor ($2100)

  2. Cleaning the blower wheel ($1130) and

  3. $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...
