24/7 Emergency Service — Call 403-966-7059

Why it's worth doing

Almost every emergency call we attend had warning signs weeks or months earlier. A worn part, a filter nobody changed, a slow drain that kept getting slower. Those are cheap to deal with on a scheduled visit and expensive to deal with at 11pm.

There's a warranty angle too: most heating and cooling manufacturers require documented annual maintenance for their warranty to stay valid. If you've skipped servicing, a major failure may not be covered.

We'll build a plan around the equipment you actually have rather than selling you a fixed package that half applies.

A plan typically includes

  • Annual furnace or boiler service and safety check
  • Pre-summer air conditioning check and coil clean
  • Filter inspection and replacement guidance
  • Water heater inspection and flush
  • Visible pipework and connection check for leaks
  • Drain flow check on the fixtures that matter
  • Thermostat calibration and settings review
  • A written note of anything that will need attention soon
  • Priority scheduling when something does go wrong

Through the year

A sensible schedule

  1. Spring

    Air conditioning service before the first hot week, plus a drainage check after the melt.

  2. Summer

    A good window for water heater work and any non-urgent plumbing you've been putting off.

  3. Autumn

    Furnace service and safety check before the heating season begins. The most important visit of the year.

  4. Winter

    Freeze-risk check on vulnerable pipework, and priority response if anything does go wrong.

Questions

Common questions

What does the maintenance plan cover?
It covers scheduled servicing of your heating and cooling equipment, plus a plumbing and drainage check. Call 403-966-7059 and we'll put together a plan that matches your equipment.
How much does the plan cost?
Pricing depends on the equipment in your home or building. Call us for a quote.
Is maintenance actually worth it?
For heating and cooling equipment, yes. Annual servicing keeps efficiency up, catches worn parts before they fail, and most manufacturers require documented maintenance to keep their warranty valid.
Can I get a plan for a rental or commercial property?
Yes. We work with landlords, property managers and commercial clients across Calgary and the surrounding communities.
