**Q: What heating and cooling brands do you install?**
A: We install Carrier, Lennox, Napoleon, and Trane most often, and we're all-makes HVAC specialists — our technicians diagnose and repair every major brand we didn't install, so you're covered no matter what equipment you have.

**Q: Do you offer free estimates?**
A: Yes. We provide free, no-pressure estimates on new system installations and replacements throughout Scarborough, Durham Region, and the GTA. Call (416) 283-5698 or request service online and we'll schedule a visit.

**Q: How do I know if I should repair or replace my system?**
A: A good rule of thumb: if your system is more than 12–15 years old, needs a repair that costs a large share of a new unit, or has rising energy bills, replacement often pays off. Our licensed technicians give you an honest assessment and written options — repair and replace — so you can decide with no pressure.
