Heating & Air Conditioning review in Calgary

05/17/2017

We had Ryan out to our newly purchased house to perform maintenance on our gas fireplace and furnace and couldn't be happier with him or the results.

The 11-year old fireplace had never been cleaned or serviced and it showed. It was very dusty, the glass was foggy and it smelled musty when used. Ryan cleaned the whole fireplace, all the logs and rocks, replaced the embers, and repainted the box. All this work is now clearly evident through the newly cleaned, crystal clear glass! During the maintenance, Ryan discovered a rheostat switch (variable speed control for the fan) that was completely disconnected and apparently never installed as part of the original installation. He was able to set this up for us, and consequently, we are now able to adjust the speed of the blower fan.

During the furnace maintenance, Ryan discovered a couple of small gas leaks (yikes). He was able to identify their origin and stopped the leaks and then tested diligently via pressure test and gas-detector tests to confirm that he had indeed fixed the issue. This has given us piece of mind and we are very pleased (and relieved) that we had him in today.

Highly recommend Ryan. His pricing couldn't be beat and the value we got for his time here was outstanding.

Gas fireplaces and furnaces need annual maintenance to ensure safe and proper operation!

All of the components that make up a gas fireplace or a furnace need to be inspected, tested, adjusted, & cleaned annually in accordance with manufacturer specifications. This is to ensure that the unit is operating safely and efficiently.

A gas fireplace annual maintenance consists of:

A series of inspections, tests, and adjustments to ensure the safe efficient operation of your gas fireplace
Cleaning all components of your fireplace.
Replace "Glowing Embers" which will enhance the flame and give your fireplace a warm and inviting glow.
Touch up paint to parts that look worn, or dull.

A gas furnace maintenance consists of;

Combustion analysis to get an accurate output efficiency reading of your furnace. This will ensure proper combustion set up and maximum efficiency of your furnace.

Carbon monoxide test of the heat exchanger to ensure no cracks that would allow poisons exhaust fumes into living area. This test is important because carbon monoxide is a colourless, odorless and extremely deadly gas.
Standard filter replacement (16*24*1 high performance filter) or if your filter is reusable then a filter maintenance would be performed.

Visual inspection of furnace and all furnace components

Low pressure test on your gas valve (as long as the valve is testable) or soapy solution leak detector test, to ensure you are leak free

Thorough cleaning of furnace and blower. (not ducts)

Service to gas fireplace and furnace

04/15/2017

If you're looking for major gas appliance maintenance don't hesitate to book Ryan. We purchased a new home, and during the home inspection were told that the furnace was in need of major servicing. We booked Ryan to service the furnace and double sided gas fireplace. Wow! What an outstanding job. The fireplace looks brand new - it was fully inspected and serviced, he found 2 leaks which were fixed, and also gave helpful maintenance tips. There was some rust build up that Ryan also sanded and repainted as well. Every rock / log was scrubbed, and the glass was treated and cleaned as well. It was totally above and beyond what we were expecting.

When he got to the furnace and hot water tank everything was fully inspected, pressure tested, cleaned, with new filter. The furnace service was also above and beyond any regular service we would have expected.

We need a new hot water tank in the very near future and will have Ryan back to install it.

Pricing was very reasonable and competitive!

Approximate cost of services:: $350.00

Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to write such a detailed review. Your new house is beautiful and I look forward to installing your new hot water tank. I'm happy to hear that you are pleased with my service.

Thank you and have a great day,

Ryan replaced a gas fireplace for me. His price was incredibly fair, and was by far the best value in comparison to other estimates.
He did a great job. What a lovely young man... polite, punctual, thorough and ambitious. He even took time out of the job to remedy an issue with my humidifier.
He is returning to replace my water heater and will most certainly be called when I need a new furnace.
Highly recommend!

Thanks for the quick support. Called Ryan and he was at my house in 20 minutes. We woke up to 12 degrees Celsius house while it was -26 out over night.
Ryan was able to find the problem, and had the furnace back up and running within an hour. Fantastic service, thanks again.

Company Response: Thank you for taking the time to write me a review. I'm glad I was able to help you out, no heat calls are always one of my top priorities.

Furnace replacement

01/27/2017

Ryan replaced my mid efficiency furnace on short notice during the latest cold snap. Very friendly, good work.

I'm happy you are enjoying your new high efficient furnace. I'm sure that it will not only provide savings, but also ease of mind knowing that pricey repair bills and cold nights are a thing of the past, with your 10 year parts/labour warranty offered by Goodman.

Thank you for your business.
