Is $659 to install a Micropower Guard with blower cleaning a fair price?

Project Details

During a heater tune-up, the technician recommended these repairs. My unit is 12 years old, and we've been doing tune-ups every six months since day one. I'm questioning if these repairs are necessary or a sell-up tactic, and if I should get a second opinion or if the quote is reasonable.

Quote Details

The technician recommended a Micropower Guard system, stating that the current filter is too restrictive on airflow and allows dirt through, potentially causing premature motor failure. The Micropower Guard is an electronic filter designed to prevent dirt collection on the blower wheel without restricting airflow. - Micropower Guard (16x25x1) - Free blower wheel cleaning - One-year supply of Micropower Guard filters - Lifetime Warranty
