Choosing an HVAC contractor can be a daunting task. If you work with the right company, then the process of repairing your HVAC unit can be a smooth and effortless process. Did you know that your energy efficiency can suffer if your HVAC system isn’t installed properly? And if you choose the wrong HVAC company to repair your system, you could end up with an “HVAC Wall of Shame” story to tell your friends and neighbours at the next block party (who wants that?!).
Whether your home’s heating and/or cooling system is in need of routine maintenance, emergency repairs or a total replacement, selecting a qualified HVAC contractor is an important decision! To ensure you hire a qualified professional that best fits your job, here are a few simple tips to help you find the best HVAC contractor for your needs.
Choose The Right HVAC Contractor With These 5 Simple Tips:
Tip #1 Get A Referral
Ask neighbors, friends, and family for referrals for reliable HVAC contractors in your area. Referrals can give a homeowner insight as to the type of experience they can expect from a particular contractor.
Tip #2 Read Reviews
A quick glance at the number of review stars can often be misleading. Be sure to read the written comments and look for HVAC contractors with a good reputation for value, quality and customer service. Read Ignite Heating & Air Conditioning Ltd. reviews on Google here! We also have great reviews on Yelp and Facebook!
Tip #3 Locate An Authorized Dealer
If you’re looking at a particular brand of furnace, check out the manufacturer’s website for recommendations of a local dealer and/or HVAC contractor in your area. For Napoleon products, search here to find an authorized dealer in your area. Ignite Heating is an authorized dealer of Napoleon products!
Tip #4 Look At Reliability
Check out how long the HVAC Contractor has been in business. If a company has been around for a long period of time, it usually indicates that they are well established, familiar with their service area, knowledgeable about the needs of their client base, and have very capable and skilled technicians with many years of experience. Research the history of the contractor and the business.
Tip #5 Don’t Always Go With The Lowest Bid
Sometimes, a lower price doesn’t always mean it should be your first choice. Paying a little bit more will often result in better equipment and service from your chosen company. If there are huge discrepancies in price from one contractor to another, ask them why their prices are set that way. For example, higher prices can indicate better quality of equipment, training of technicians, and above average maintenance agreements.

We are first time customers and will definitely use their services again. Dan was quick to respond with a quote for a new humidifier and share information on their products. They were able to work with our availability and the technician showed up on time. He was very friendly, practiced AHS guidelines in regards to COVID, his work was great and left everything clean. Showed us how the new humidifier works, settings etc. We really wanted to support a local company and are very happy with who we chose. If you have any furnace/ac etc needs highly recommend Ignite Heating.

I did not end up using this company due to bad experiences with their call center and lack of responsiveness at the beginning. That said, Dan personally called me back, explained what had happened with the call center and was very helpful and professional over the phone. I would definitely use this company in the future.

I had a new furnace installed last week by the good people over at Ignite. The replaced the original (40 y/o) massive furnace with a really compact modern looking Napoleon 9600. The entire process was first rate. They came by and did an initial look around and answered all my questions, Dan was great!. The quote arrived soon after and the installation was booked a couple days later. Michelle at the office was really easy to deal with made sure I was kept informed every step of the way. Rory & Conrad did an excellent job of the installation, they were also super nice and easy to deal with. I woudl 100% recommend Ignite Heating and Air Conditioning.

Furnace quit while I was was away at work. My girlfriend and our dog woke up to a frozen house. The technician was professional and resourceful and had the heat back on within a few hours. Thanks Dan
