Types of Air Conditioners We Install
Every home is different, and so is every cooling solution. Our comfort advisors will assess your home’s size, layout, insulation, and existing ductwork to recommend the right system for you.
Central Air Conditioners
The most common choice for Ottawa homes with existing ductwork. A central AC system pairs with your furnace to deliver consistent, whole-home cooling. We carry high-efficiency models with SEER2 ratings that reduce energy costs while keeping every room comfortable.
Ductless Mini-Split Systems
No ductwork? No problem. Ductless mini-splits are ideal for additions, older homes, or rooms that never quite reach the right temperature. One outdoor unit can connect to multiple indoor heads, giving you room-by-room control without the expense of installing new ducts.
Heat Pumps
A heat pump does double duty — cooling your home in summer and heating it in winter. Modern cold-climate heat pumps are engineered for Canadian winters and can qualify for Ontario’s Home Renovation Savings Program rebates. Ask us if a heat pump makes sense for your home.

Signs You Need a New Air Conditioner
Not sure whether to repair or replace? Here are signs it may be time for a new installation:
- Your AC is 15 years old or more
- Repair bills are adding up — multiple service calls in one season
- Your energy bills are rising despite normal usage
- Certain rooms stay hot no matter how long the AC runs
- The system makes unusual noises or cycles on and off frequently
