🛠️ What We Do During a No-Heat Service Call
Our goal is simple: restore your heat quickly and safely.
Here’s what we check during every emergency service:
✔ Full furnace diagnostic
We identify the exact cause of the failure — no guessing, no unnecessary part replacements.
✔ Ignitor & flame sensor testing
These are the most common reasons furnaces stop producing heat in Alberta winters.
✔ Gas valve & safety switch inspection
We ensure your system is safe to operate before restarting.
✔ Blower motor & limit switch testing
If your furnace is running but blowing cold air, this is often the issue.
✔ Electrical & thermostat troubleshooting
A simple thermostat problem can lead to a full heat loss.
✔ Venting & airflow safety check
Blocked vents or frozen intakes can trigger a shutdown.
Our technicians arrive stocked with the most common furnace parts, so repairs can often be completed in one visit.
