TIPS FOR BUYING A NEW FURNACE

TOP REASONS YOU NEED DUCT CLEANING

Your air ducts are an important part of your home's heating and cooling.

IS YOUR HOME’S FURNACE READY FOR WINTER?

Winter is just around the corner. If you don't prepare your home’s furnace, you may find yourself feeling the chill more than necessary.Undoubtedly, the worst time to find out your furnace needs repairs is when you need it to run on a cold winter’s night.

FOUR CONSIDERATIONS WHEN CHOOSING A FURNACE

Buying a furnace is a big decision. Here are four major factors you’ll want to take into account when weighing all of your options.Generally, bigger furnaces have more heating capacity. However, an oversized furnace will cycle on and off, which prematurely degrades components and uses more power.

DIY Furnace Repairs Aren’t Worth the Risk

There are jobs that even the handiest of homeowners should leave to a licensed professional. Furnace repairs fall into this category. Even if it’s a minor repair, you should always entrust the task to a qualified HVAC technician from East Side Ventilation. Here are the risks you’re exposing yourself to when attempting to do it yourself.If you have an oil or gas furnace, attempting DIY repairs comes with the risk of causing a carbon monoxide leak. This poisonous gas is a by-product of combustion processes and kills hundreds of people every year. It’s also odourless, tasteless and colourless, making it nearly impossible to detect unless you have a carbon monoxide detector.

Why Duct Cleaning is a Must for Every Homeowner

Do I Need to Get an Annual Furnace Check-Up?

In a short answer, yes you do. Here’s the longer answer—maintaining a furnace provides your home with numerous benefits, but also ensures that your home remains safe.

The service person that came out to check our two furnaces showed me how he checked the heating performance of each furnace versus the standard for each furnace. It was a very thorough check procedure, and everything was explained. He even showed me where the air intake vent was on the outside of our home, and cleaned it off. Very professional and friendly service.

First time using East Side Ventilation after searching for a reliable duct cleaner for a long time. Previously, had tried to hire another contractor but he failed to show two times and professionalism was questionable. From booking the appointment to the service personnel who came to do the job, to the efficiency of the work and the customer service/payment process at the end, working with East Side was an all-around great experience. Would definitely recommend and use again.

Great service all around! November 2022 my furnace was showing an error code and I thought I was looking at a huge expense. The technician did some troubleshooting and discovered a loose connection.

From Dan D who accommodated a last min date change and set up the appointment to Scott and Paul who did everything right! A quick call 20 min before coming with a heads up. When they got here they introduced themselves right away to me and my wife and even our dogs liked them. They were Quick, Friendly professional, clean, covid friendly and bottom line good guys. Afterwards Scott gave me a recap of what they did what they found and even put in my new filter (one of those ugly accordion ones that take forever) then they both said it was nice to meet us and were gone... thanks guys and thanks Eastside.

This company did all the ductwork in our home when we built it 18 years go. They also installed our furnace and air conditioner. We hired them because the general contractor (Walter... can't remember his last name, sorry) who we hired to organize the building of our home said they have good pricing and do good work.
Anyway, Walter was right. And because of that, East Side Ventilation has been my go-to company any time I need anything done with my HVAC system for the past 18 years. The staff is professional, friendly, on time, and does excellent work. I highly recommend them. :) In case that loyalty makes it sound like I know them, I figure I ought to mention that I do NOT know the owners or staff on a personal level. It's just that I was really happy with their work when we built our home, and I see no reason to try anyone else and risk being unhappy with the workmanship. Some reviewers have mentioned that they couldn't get an exact quote ahead of time... I'm guessing that's because they bill based on how long it takes them to do the job, and they don't know that until they've done it. And I'm guessing they have enough business that they don't have to spend their time doing free in-home estimates anymore - and frankly, I don't blame them - I wouldn't do free in-home estimates either if I had enough business to avoid having to waste time on that. In any case, I've never worried about their pricing because like I said, they do good work and they're honest.

Chris came out to make it possible for our new dryer to be bottom ventilated. The existing hole was not in the right place. We were very impressed by his professionalism and attention to detail. He thought outside the box, anticipating issues the dryer installer might have and gave us extra ducting and a different elbow than the one we had. I had asked him to cut the duct flush with the bottom of the dryer, as that's what the installer said the night before, but Chris left it 1/4 inch higher as he didn't think the installer would be able to connect it easily otherwise. The installer came just as Chris was about to leave, and confirmed that it was a good thing that Chris left the extra margin of metal for him. Chris also said he added a brace to the ducting under the floor so that it was more solid than before. Our reno guy, who was also there doing work, took a look at it and said it looked really good. Chris was polite and prompt as well, and the man answering the phone, whom I talked to about 3 times, was always polite and helpful, giving me confidence. I would definitely recommend this company.

Needed emergency support for an air conditioner that stopped working on the weekend. The technician was able to come out the next day when most other places were closed all weekend.

I had the fine folks at East Side Ventilation clean my ducts many months ago and they did an honest great job. They were friendly and very professional. Their tech took the time to explain why the A/C was having a hard time cooling the second floor. This 100+ year old house was not built with A/C in mind. I asked my daughter how they were? She couldn't stop saying again how great they were. Definitely 5 star and 2 thumbs up!

From my original request to book services for duct cleaning and HRV servicing the process was seamless and very effective. With colder temperatures upon us here in Winnipeg Manitoba it was perfect timing for duct cleaning and a HRV tune up. Booking was nearly instantaneous when speaking with the Service Manager Dave Megaw who had the duct specialists arrive within 36 hours of the request; both gentlemen, Russell and Scott, arrived promptly on time at 8 am and within an hour and a half and sound advice on when to perform next services they had completed the cleaning. Both were highly personable and moved efficiently through the house while maintaining absolute cleanliness. Within an hour afterwards the tech arrived for the HRV servicing. Again, working effectively assessing and sleuthing by process of elimination our home's heating system, it was deduced that a damper motor was in need of replacing. Not only was the problem solved but a temporary fix to allow colder air to flow into the HRV was suggested while the new motor was to arrive. Calls were made expeditiously to various source contacts for the replacement and within 15 minutes a new motor was located locally and to be installed in the next 24 hours. I am grateful for the team at East Side Ventilation for their quick action and collaborative approach to alleviating my concerns over excess moisture and our home's entire heating system. I will rest assured knowing the team has and will be there for any concerns related to the ventilation and air quality of my home. Sincere thanks to East Side. MRB.

Our furnace broke down and Eastside was very quick to come service it. The technician was friendly and professional. He took the time to break down our options for us. He explained what types of repairs were needed and also the option for a new furnace, if we wanted to replace it. There was no pressure to choose either route. We decided to replace the furnace and it was done very quickly. I would strongly recommend Eastside Ventilation if you need service on your ventilation system. You can feel confident you will be given honest feedback, a fair price and a quick turn around once you make your decision.

Very satisfied.

East Side did a great job of installation. They found and corrected problems as they progressed in the installation. Thanks guys!

From the recommendations to the quote and installation of a new 2 stage furnace, the whole process was represented by honesty and integrity. They never tried to sell me something I didn’t need. From the duct cleaning to the installation of the new furnace the representatives of EastSide Ventilation were personable, professional and willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done right. After service concerns were addressed immediately and completed in a timely fashion. I have no hesitation in recommending this company for their Home heating/Cooling/Ventilation needs. Thanks EastSide

I could go on and on, but the short version is this: THE most honest, trustworthy company I've ever dealt with. Dave in Service is outstanding; knowledgeable, prompt, upfront, and fair. I could not be happier. I continue to use them, and recommend them the instant anybody mentions looking for an HVAC company. 5 Gold stars!
