Should I upgrade my air conditioner?

If your system requires constant repairs, is 15 years or older, or can’t heat or cool your home properly we recommend you replace it. Modern air conditioners are more energy efficient than older models. If your air conditioner is using the old, discredited R-22/Freon gas, then upgrading will see a greater efficiency – both in energy and your utility bills.

How can I tell if my gas heater is leaking carbon monoxide?

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a gas produced when combusting (burning) fuels. It is colourless, odourless, tasteless and can be lethal. Be aware of flu-like symptoms, nausea, headaches, dizziness and fatigue. Long-term exposure can lead to unconsciousness or death. If your gas heater or hot water system is of concern to you, call to have your systems checked.
