What we like about AccuServ Heating and Air Conditioning is how quick they are – always ready to answer your call, even during those nail-biting emergency furnace breakdowns.

Another thing we appreciate is that they’re true to their word about being available 24/7 because we heard from clients who tried other companies with no luck. 

Based on our research, AccuServ, on the other hand, has been consistently there to answer calls at any hour.

We also think it’s admirable of them to provide temporary solutions if a quick fix isn’t doable on the spot. 

For instance, they once loaned a client some space heaters to keep their home cozy in the winter. They couldn’t do the whole repair and installation in a jiffy, but they made it work efficiently, and that client stayed nice and toasty while they waited.

But we did notice that some of their diagnostic and repair fees were slightly pricier than other companies. So we suggest you discuss this with them over the phone to avoid any surprises.

On the bright side, we like that they offer monthly service plans costing $13, $14, and $32 a month with different inclusions, like maintenance, unlimited repairs, and extended coverage. 

Lastly, it’s worth mentioning that AccuServ offers financing options, especially if you’ll have to completely replace your furnace.

With over 25 years of experience, SunnySide Heating And Air Conditioning has gained valuable experience and skills in the heating, ventilation and air conditioning industry.

This also includes their expertise in handling different repair cases for furnaces. From what we’ve seen, their diagnostics are right on the money, and they can jump right into the repairs without any fuss.

It’s also a plus in our books that they back their services with a one-year repair guarantee. So, if you spot any issues after they’ve worked their magic, don’t panic — just reach out to them, and they’ll sort it out.

We’ve got to give props to their technicians for going the extra mile and sharing the inside scoop on how to keep your furnace in good shape and avoid those pesky issues down the road. 

One more thing that’s impressed us is how fast they move. When you’re in a jam, they’re quick on the draw, whether it’s answering your call or getting back to you, especially in emergencies. 

And if your furnace’s playing games, they can dispatch a technician to your place to save you from turning into a human popsicle.

However, their diagnostic and small parts repairs might set you back around $250, which could be a bit steep for some budgets.

Nonetheless, we commend them for their punctuality and efficiency in handling these repairs. And, as a bonus, they tidy up after themselves, so you won’t be dancing any rogue screws when they’re finished.

Next on our list is Aire Max Heating and Cooling. When it comes to anything furnace-related, from repairs to full-on installations, they’ve got you covered — they can be your go-to guys for the job.

A standout aspect we appreciate is that their technicians have a ton of experience servicing and fixing all sorts of furnaces. They’re like furnace whisperers, handling brands from Carrier to Lennox and everything in between.

And here’s a cool tidbit: if your current furnace happens to be a Carrier, you might be in line for a rebate of up to $900 when you go for a furnace replacement. So, we suggest you call them for the details.

Also, note that their rates are a bit high, like a $100 charge for an inspection or diagnostic. So, if you’re rolling with a different brand, it’s a smart move to double-check their fees and rates before you hire them.

We’re also a bit iffy when it comes to how they handle follow-up matters, like dealing with part or mechanical issues. From what some clients have shared, the technicians rush to get things sorted and could overlook a few details in the end.

Luckily, they have a satisfaction guarantee, so if you notice any problems, give them a call for a recheck to avoid any dissatisfaction with the repair.

Now, let’s talk about Laird & Son Heating & Air Conditioning, a family-run business that’s been serving the GTA for over 70 years. 

They’ve got a wide range of services, from setting up new furnaces, heating units, air conditioners, heat pumps, and boilers to ductless air conditioner units.

What also got our attention is that 90% of their business comes from satisfied customers recommending them to others. To us, this speaks volumes about their performance and expertise — word of mouth is quite reliable, eh?

But just a heads up, their rates are expensive if you compare them to other companies. When you call in for a service, they’ll hit you with a $159 plus tax (or an after-hours rate of $219 plus tax) diagnostic charge for the technician to swing by and figure out what’s going on.

On a positive note, they also offer payment plans to help you get started on your furnace repair. 

Here’s another thing we like – they’re not picky. They can tackle repairs on traditional and modern home furnaces, even gas-powered ones.

All in all, we think Laird & Son Heating & Air Conditioning is a smart bet for your furnace repair needs, especially if you’ve got an older furnace on your hands.

Now, let’s talk about Reliance Superior Heating, Air Conditioning & Plumbing, who’ve been in the furnace repair game since way back in 1988. Also, we’re impressed with their wealth of expertise and their track record of past projects.

Another nifty thing we saw is that they’ve got an online booking system where clients can set appointments. It’s a pretty handy feature because it lets you pick the service you want and your preferred time and date.

However, keep an eye out for any rescheduling or cancellations made by the company, as there have been some similar reports. To play it safe, we’d recommend getting the contact info of the technician in charge so you can communicate any concerns or changes directly.

When it comes to staying in touch, they get some kudos from us. They have 24/7 live customer support on their website, where you can fire away with your questions or concerns via chat, especially if you’re on the go and can’t make a call.

It’s also worth mentioning that they offer paperless or online billing options, which means you can skip that last-minute dash to the ATM. 

Overall, we recommend Reliance for their furnace repair experience and the fact that their technicians don’t just fix things – they give you the lowdown on keeping your furnace in tip-top shape.
