Do heat pumps work in Toronto winters?

Yes. Cold-climate models produce heat well below Toronto's −20°C design temperature; many are rated to −25°C to −30°C.

How long does a heat pump last?

15–20 years with annual maintenance, similar to a central AC.

Will my hydro bill go up?

Your electricity use goes up and your gas or oil use drops or ends. The net depends on what you heat with now; we show both on your quote.

Repair & maintenance

Heat pump repair and annual service

We service all major heat pump brands, including systems installed by other contractors. Common winter calls: outdoor unit iced over and not defrosting, indoor head blowing cool air, error codes, and noisy fans. An annual check before winter catches most of these.
