01Local knowledge
What we see in Greely homes
Many Greely homes are large two-storeys and bungalows on estate lots, often with high ceilings, open main floors and finished lower levels. One furnace serving that much space can leave the upper floor warm and the basement cool. Zoning, a second system or duct changes can even that out.
Heating varies from house to house in and around Greely: some homes are on natural gas, while rural properties often heat with propane or oil. Homes on propane or oil are strong candidates for a cold-climate heat pump, which qualifies for the larger provincial rebate. Gas-heated homes can still add a heat pump as a hybrid setup to cut gas use.
Estate properties often have backyard pools and gas fireplaces as well. We install Napoleon gas fireplaces and install and service pool heaters, so the heating equipment inside and out can be handled by one contractor.

Do you come out to Greely?
Yes. Greely is in rural Ottawa, about 19 km from our Carlington shop as the crow flies and part of our Ottawa service area. Free estimates are available on new heating and cooling equipment.
Our upstairs is always too warm and the basement too cool. Can that be fixed?
Usually. In large homes the fix may be rebalancing the ducts, adding returns, zoning the system, or a separate unit for one floor. We'll measure what's happening first and explain the options.
How do I know if my home is on natural gas?
Check your utility bills: an Enbridge Gas bill means you're on gas. Many rural properties around Greely heat with propane or oil instead, which changes which heating options and rebates make sense.
