A few good questions
Useful information before you make the next decision.
Can you help with furnace repair in my BC city?
Use the city guide and enquiry form to describe your location and heating issue. Service availability, appointment timing and any travel charges must be confirmed for your address. A city page is a planning resource, not a local branch or a guaranteed service commitment.
How do I choose between furnace repair and replacement?
Start with a qualified diagnosis, then compare the repair scope and safety condition with the complete replacement price, warranty, parts availability and your comfort goals. Age alone does not settle the decision.
What should a furnace installation quote include?
Ask for the equipment model, sizing basis, duct and control work, venting, fuel or electrical work, permits, removal, commissioning, taxes and warranty terms. Compare the same scope across proposals.
Does a request book a technician?
No. A saved enquiry lets the team review your request. A contractor, price, appointment and scope need to be separately confirmed before work is scheduled.
What should I do if I smell gas or a CO alarm sounds?
Leave the building immediately. If gas is suspected, do not operate switches or use a phone indoors. From outside, call 911 for a CO alarm or immediate danger. For a gas leak, call 911 or your gas provider; FortisBC gas customers can call 1-800-663-9911. Stay outside until emergency responders say it is safe. Do not wait for a web enquiry or chat reply.
