Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems are an essential part of living in Canada. Most people do not give the HVAC systems in their homes a second thought until they stop working on the hottest or coldest day of the year. 

That’s where people like Derek Jackson, Sales and Marketing Manager for Wardlaw Heating & Cooling, step in. According to Derek, the best part of his job is helping people to enjoy their homes. 

“We are able to help families and individuals stay safe and comfortable in their homes. We often receive phone calls when people are not having a great day because their furnace quit, their water tank is leaking, or their home is just way too hot. Our team is able to help fix these issues and turn their day around,” he says. 

Preventative Maintenance Saves Money and Hassle

Derek recommends scheduling annual preventative maintenance in order to avoid those unpleasant breakdowns that seem to happen at the worst times of the year. 

“We recommend doing full systems including heating, cooling, and water heating, in spring or summer so the entire system is working safely and efficiently prior to heating season,” he says. “Having maintenance and safety inspections completed during these seasons also allows time if any repairs or replacements are needed prior to the cold weather hitting.”

Additional Benefits of Preventative Maintenance

On top of avoiding breakdowns in the middle of the winter, preventative maintenance of a home ventilation system can also help in a number of other ways:

  • Making sure the system is running efficiently can help to reduce energy bills and carbon emissions.
  • Routine inspections and carbon monoxide output testing can ensure that the system is running safely.
  • Regular maintenance can help to lengthen the life of the equipment.

Maintenance Membership Can Help

The team at Wardlaw Heating & Cooling realize the importance of preventative maintenance for their customer’s ventilation systems so they offer a unique maintenance membership program to make it more affordable. They offer maintenance memberships for heating, cooling, and water heating equipment of all types including furnaces, fireplaces, boilers, central and ductless heat pumps, and air conditioners. 

“With our maintenance membership, our customers receive an annual maintenance and safety inspection on their equipment as well as priority service in an emergency like no heat on a cold winter day,” says Derek. “The membership also includes parts and labour coverage on equipment repairs and exclusive pricing on work that is not included in the membership.”
