HVAC Services in St. Catharines

Much like when you are considering a new installation, all homes are different and costs can vary greatly depending on the scope of the issue. By scheduling a free initial estimate, our technicians can come to your home, inspect your equipment, and get to the bottom of the problem to provide you with an honest and accurate cost breakdown.

There are some common factors, however, that can affect the overall cost. These include:

• The cost of labour
• The scope of maintenance or repair required
• The size of your HVAC unit
• The age and current condition of your home’s HVAC unit
• The complexity of your home’s HVAC unit
• The urgency of the problem at hand
• Whether spare parts will be needed to fix a mechanical problem
• The accessibility of your home’s HVAC unit

Is there something wrong with your HVAC unit? If the answer is yes, call the team at Mr.Furnace today. We’ll promptly send a technician to your home to ensure you can get back to your regular schedule with as little disruption as possible.

As a rule of thumb, homeowners should have their HVAC system serviced at least once a year. For heating units, we recommend booking an appointment in the early fall. This will ensure that we are able to catch and repair potential problems before the cold sets in. Additionally, regular service can maximize your home’s energy efficiency and provide you with peace of mind during the winter.

For air conditioning units, we recommend scheduling a service in the early spring. This will provide you ample time to fix any required repairs to help ensure that your AC unit is prepared to function as the weather begins to heat up during the summer.

Proactive HVAC services help homeowners diagnose potential problems before they become more costly and severe. Regular maintenance can also save your unit’s warranty for more expensive repairs that were otherwise not preventable.

During a service visit, our team can also clean your air ducts to help ensure that accumulated dust, hair, dirt, and other debris does not circulate throughout your home. These particulates can affect your home’s energy efficiency and make you and your family vulnerable to persistent discomfort from allergies and cold-like systems.

Do any of these signs seem familiar to you? If the answer is yes, then it’s time to call Mr.Furnace. Our professionals take pride in our prompt response and thorough approach to keep you comfortable year-round.

Yes, HVAC maintenance is an essential task that is required for all HVAC units, regardless of the type of unit or its age. When your HVAC unit is not functioning correctly due to an undiagnosed problem, your indoor air quality and overall comfort of your home can significantly diminish as minor mechanical problems escalate into more severe and costly issues. As a result, you could risk breathing in dust, dirt, hair, debris, mould, mildew, and other airborne impurities that can end up causing preventable illnesses and allergies.

Furthermore, without consistent maintenance, your heating and cooling units can be more susceptible to complete breakdown. When maintained properly, HVAC units can last anywhere from 10 to 20 years. If not, they can last under 10 years, which will end up costing you more money on replacements. Additionally, regular maintenance helps support energy efficiency to help you save on your monthly utility bills.

With all that said, we understand that HVAC maintenance often takes a backseat when it comes to other responsibilities.
