FAQs
How do I know if my HVAC unit in Elora needs to be replaced rather than repaired?
A replacement is usually recommended when your system is 15 – 20 years old, needs frequent or costly repairs, runs inefficiently (high utility bills), or can no longer keep your home comfortable despite regular maintenance. Our certified technicians will perform a comprehensive inspection—checking compressor performance, refrigerant levels, heat exchanger integrity, and airflow—to give you an honest assessment and cost-benefit comparison of repair vs. replacement.
What size or capacity HVAC system do I need for my Elora home?
Proper sizing depends on square footage, insulation quality, window orientation, ceiling height, and even local climate data specific to the Elora area. During an in-home consultation, our technicians carry out a Manual J load calculation to determine the precise BTU and SEER/AFUE ratings required. Correct sizing maximizes comfort, lowers energy bills, and extends equipment life by preventing short-cycling or excessive run times.
How long does a typical HVAC replacement take, and will I be without heating or cooling during the process?
Most standard replacements are completed in one day. We remove the old equipment, install the new unit, connect ducts/refrigerant lines, and perform system testing. You may experience 4–8 hours without heating or cooling, but we schedule installations at your convenience and can provide temporary heaters or portable ACs when extreme weather demands.
Are there rebates or incentives available in Elora or Ontario for upgrading my HVAC system?
Yes. Homeowners may qualify for Canada’s Greener Homes Grant, Enbridge Home Efficiency Rebate Plus (HER+), or manufacturer promotions that can save $250 – $5,000 on high-efficiency furnaces, air conditioners, or heat pumps. Our office handles the paperwork, supplies proof of certified installation, and ensures your new system meets the efficiency criteria to maximize your rebate.
What is the expected life span of a new HVAC unit installed by your certified technicians?
With proper maintenance, today’s high-quality furnaces and air conditioners typically last 15–20 years, and heat pumps 12–15 years. Regular tune-ups, filter changes, and professional inspections help maintain manufacturer warranties and keep the system performing at peak efficiency throughout its life cycle.
Why should I choose certified technicians for my HVAC replacement instead of a general handyman?
Certified HVAC technicians hold provincial TSSA refrigeration and gas-fitter licenses, carry liability insurance, and stay current with Ontario Building Code and CSA B51/B52 safety standards. They have factory training to handle refrigerants responsibly, perform load calculations, and register warranties. Using certified professionals safeguards your manufacturer warranty, ensures code compliance, and provides peace of mind that the installation is safe, efficient, and built to last.
