Home heating done right!
Your furnace is an essential part of your home's comfort â not just for keeping you warm in the winter, but for directing airflow in the summer as well!
When winter temperatures in Edmonton drop well below freezing, your furnace isnât optional â itâs essential.
A furnace is the primary heating system in most Alberta homes. It uses natural gas or electricity to generate heat and distribute it through ductwork, keeping your home warm, safe, and comfortable throughout the long heating season.
With Edmontonâs extended winters and sudden cold snaps, having a properly sized, high-efficiency furnace isnât just about comfort â itâs about protecting your home, your plumbing, and your family.
Modern furnaces can achieve efficiency ratings of 95% to 98% AFUE, meaning more of your fuel becomes usable heat.

Furnace frustrations can happen if your furnace is older, inefficient, or frequently breaking down. When you upgrade to a new, high-efficiency model, you may notice a drastic increase in improved comfort AND lower energy bills.
Because of Edmonton's extreme winters, a furnace problem on the coldest days can be a true nightmare. That's why we provide FREE in-home estimates to help you make the important decision when you're ready to upgrade, replace, or install a new furnace.

Being without heat at the worst possible time--like during cold snap when the system is working hardest--is never a fun time. That's why annual furnace maintenance is one of the most important services  Edmonton homeowners can schedule.
Because furnaces run for months at a time, minor issues can quickly become major failures without routine, preventative care. The result? Failure during the coldest days!
Fall is the ideal time for furnace servicing before peak heating season begins, but getting a furnace tune-up is better than not getting one at all when it comes to preventative maintenance. Call ProSolutions to keep your home comfortable all year long!

SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, and the higher the SEER rating, the more efficient an air conditioner is at cooling your home. If you see SEER2, that is the updated version of SEER.
Furnace tune-up services are designed to keep your furnace safe, efficient, and reliable. We offer different options for tune-up services, but our full maintenance tune-up ($297) qualifies as an annual warranty checkup to maintain the warranty of your furnace.
Furnaces work hard in Alberta's climate, which means it needs regular servicing in order to stay efficient and prevent breakdowns when you need it the most. We recommend booking a tune-up service for your furnace at least once a year, as annual maintenance prevents costly breakdowns and emergency repairs, extends your furnace's lifespan, and ensures your system stays efficient and keeps your utility bills low. Ideally, your furnace should be servied in the fallâbefore the heating season starts.
Many homeowners pair annual tune-ups with membership plans like our ProComfort or ProHeating programs to save on service costs and keep maintenance on schedule.
There are many great furnace brands, but ProSolutions recommends Trane and RunTru furnaces for most Alberta homes.

Yes, furnace filters should be changed even in the summer! While your furnace might not be heating, your HVAC system's blower and ductwork are still in use when running your central AC, which means your furnace filter is still in use. Continue following the manufacturer's recommendations for changing your filter (typically every 1-3 months) or depending on your family and household sensitivities.
Pro Tip: Our ProComfort Dual and ProHeating Memberships include an Air Filter Delivery Add-Onâweâll send the right filter to your door on schedule so you never forget, and your HVAC system stays efficient year-round.
Typically, a furnace is installed in less than 8 hours.

Furnace filters should be changed according to the manufacturer's recommendations (typically every 1-3 months) or according to your home and lifestyle. For example, if you have pets, allergies, asthma, or very dusty conditions, you will want to consider changing your filter more often.

If your furnace isn't working, there are a few things you can chek yourselfâif you feel comfortable doing so. For example, you can check if the power switch is turned to ON, whether the breaker has tripped, whether the filter needs to be changed (a clogged filter can disrupt airflow), and whether your thermostat needs new batteries. While you're at the thermostat, check to ensure the correct settings, as well.
If you're not comfortable with checking these yourself, or if these don't solve your issue, it's important to call a professional to prevent further potential damage.
