Heating contractors can keep your Winnipeg home warm this winter

September 09, 2015
cold weather

Is your home cooler than you would like in winter? Do you experience uneven heating throughout the rooms in your house?


Heat loss is caused by a number of factors. Drafty windows and doors are often to blame but can be easily fixed with a little bit of weatherstripping. Hardwood floors can also contribute to as much as 10 per cent of your home's heat loss but that’s nothing that a few area rugs can’t fix. However, if these measures don't help keep your home warm then you might have a larger issue on your hands.


Unexplained heat loss usually points to a problem with your heating system. Have your HVAC system looked at by a licensed heating and cooling contractor in Winnipeg to find out if the trouble lurks inside your furnace. Indications that there might be a problem with the furnace include:

  • Uneven room temperatures
  • Heating costs rise
  • Non-seasonal allergies worsen
  • Unusual odors or sounds coming from the furnace


Have your heating and air conditioning systems checked each fall

With the frigid temperatures outside, residential heating systems work hard all winter long. Have your heating and air conditioning systems inspected by a Winnipeg HVAC technician every year to make sure that you are always cool in the summer and warm in the winter.


An annual fall inspection will ensure you have reliable heating in your home all winter long. All the working components on your furnace need professional cleaning. Dirty furnaces waste energy and money. Having your furnace inspected and cleaned regularly means a warmer house, better indoor air quality and increased energy efficiency.


Our Winnipeg heating contractors can find little problems before they turn into bigger ones. Our technicians come to every inspection fully prepared with specialized tools and common replacement parts so you never get stuck with a freezing cold home.


Contact us for all your heating needs in the Winnipeg area

At East Side Ventilation, our highly trained HVAC technicians work with a variety of heating systems and have the skills to inspect, repair and install all gas, electric and geothermal forced air systems.


Brand new furnaces can be pricey and it's not always easy to come up with the cash. If you need help purchasing a new furnace for your home, Manitoba Hydro offers a number of different financing options to all of their Winnipeg customers.


We take pride in providing you with exceptional customer service. We want you to feel comfortable in your home all year round. We offer reliable 24-hour emergency repair services so that you don’t have to wait in the cold. If you’re having trouble with your heating system, contact us day or night.

Positive: Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness, Value We just had our Furnace and Ducts cleaned and I just had to write up a review on Eastside Ventilation because it was amazing. From Dan D who accommodated a last min date change and set up the appointment to Scott and Paul who did everything right! A quick call 20 min before coming with a heads up. When they got here they introduced themselves right away to me and my wife and even our dogs liked them. They were Quick, Friendly professional, clean, covid friendly and bottom line good guys. Afterwards Scott gave me a recap of what they did what they found and even put in my new filter (one of those ugly accordion ones that take forever) then they both said it was nice to meet us and were gone... thanks guys and thanks Eastside.

This company did all the ductwork in our home when we built it 18 years go. They also installed our furnace and air conditioner. We hired them because the general contractor (Walter... can't remember his last name, sorry) who we hired to organize the building of our home said they have good pricing and do good work.
Anyway, Walter was right. And because of that, East Side Ventilation has been my go-to company any time I need anything done with my HVAC system for the past 18 years. The staff is professional, friendly, on time, and does excellent work. I highly recommend them. :) In case that loyalty makes it sound like I know them, I figure I ought to mention that I do NOT know the owners or staff on a personal level. It's just that I was really happy with their work when we built our home, and I see no reason to try anyone else and risk being unhappy with the workmanship. Some reviewers have mentioned that they couldn't get an exact quote ahead of time... I'm guessing that's because they bill based on how long it takes them to do the job, and they don't know that until they've done it. And I'm guessing they have enough business that they don't have to spend their time doing free in-home estimates anymore - and frankly, I don't blame them - I wouldn't do free in-home estimates either if I had enough business to avoid having to waste time on that. In any case, I've never worried about their pricing because like I said, they do good work and they're honest.

Chris came out to make it possible for our new dryer to be bottom ventilated. The existing hole was not in the right place. We were very impressed by his professionalism and attention to detail. He thought outside the box, anticipating issues the dryer installer might have and gave us extra ducting and a different elbow than the one we had. I had asked him to cut the duct flush with the bottom of the dryer, as that's what the installer said the night before, but Chris left it 1/4 inch higher as he didn't think the installer would be able to connect it easily otherwise. The installer came just as Chris was about to leave, and confirmed that it was a good thing that Chris left the extra margin of metal for him. Chris also said he added a brace to the ducting under the floor so that it was more solid than before. Our reno guy, who was also there doing work, took a look at it and said it looked really good. Chris was polite and prompt as well, and the man answering the phone, whom I talked to about 3 times, was always polite and helpful, giving me confidence. I would definitely recommend this company.

Needed emergency support for an air conditioner that stopped working on the weekend. The technician was able to come out the next day when most other places were closed all weekend. He was crazy knowledgeable and his initial thoughts on the problem was replacing a $35 part. Turned out he was right! I highly recommend them for AC repair and will look to try them out for furnace maintenance this fall.

One of my daughter's and her husband just bought their first house. What better house warming gift than a duct cleaning... I know brilliant right!
I had the fine folks at East Side Ventilation clean my ducts many months ago and they did an honest great job. They were friendly and very professional. Their tech took the time to explain why the A/C was having a hard time cooling the second floor. This 100+ year old house was not built with A/C in mind. I asked my daughter how they were? She couldn't stop saying again how great they were. Definitely 5 star and 2 thumbs up!

Sam was terrific. He explained everything as he did his work and I know he did a thorough job. Very personable. I have been using Eastside for furnace maintenance and repair for the last 4 years and I have always been very pleased with their work. I feel they are very honest and dependable.
