We specialize in installing and servicing top HVAC brands tailored to Waterloo’s climate, including high-efficiency heat pumps like the Mitsubishi Hyper-Heating INVERTER®, reliable gas furnaces from Carrier, and Energy Star-rated air conditioners. These systems are designed to perform efficiently even during the coldest winter days or hottest summer afternoons, helping you save on energy bills without sacrificing comfort. Our technicians are TSSA certified and bring years of experience diagnosing and repairing complex issues, ensuring your system runs smoothly and safely.

One of the biggest advantages of working with us is access to government rebates exceeding $7,100, which can significantly offset the cost of upgrading to energy-efficient equipment.

For example, a recent customer in the Laurelwood neighborhood upgraded to a Carrier Infinity heat pump and furnace combo, which qualified for rebates and cut their annual heating and cooling costs by nearly 30%.
