Heating and cooling in Caledonia

Who looks after furnaces and air conditioning in Caledonia?

When the heat stops or the air conditioner quits in Caledonia, Stoney Creek Heating starts by working out the likely cause in plain words, tells you what is safe to check yourself and gives you a written price before any work begins.

What kind of system does a Caledonia house usually have?

Stoney Creek Heating works on heating and cooling systems in Caledonia, including furnaces that run on natural gas or propane. Before booking, we ask which fuel your home uses, then explain the likely fault, what you can safely look at, and the written price you approve before any work begins.

Which fuel does your Caledonia home use?

The first thing we ask on a Caledonia call is how the house is heated. Natural gas, propane and oil furnaces share a lot, but the burners, the controls and the service steps differ, and the technician needs to come prepared for the right one. If you are not sure, look for a gas meter on the outside wall, a propane tank on the property, or an oil tank in the basement or garage.

What can you check before the visit?

  • On propane, confirm the tank gauge is not near empty; a low tank is a common reason a furnace will not light.
  • Check the thermostat mode and batteries.
  • Look at the furnace filter and replace it if it is clogged.
  • Make sure the furnace power switch has not been turned off by mistake.

Leave the gas valve, burners and tank fittings alone. Natural gas and propane appliances are installed and serviced to the CSA B149.1 code, and that work belongs to a gas technician.

Which services are available in Caledonia?

We handle furnace repair, furnace installation and replacement, air conditioner repair and heat pumps, including hybrid setups that pair a heat pump with an existing furnace.

How do you book?

Questions from Caledonia homeowners

My Caledonia home heats with propane. Can Stoney Creek Heating service it?

Yes. Propane furnaces are serviced much like natural gas units, but the burner setup and gas pressure differ, so please tell us the fuel when you book. Before calling, check that the tank gauge is not low, since an empty or nearly empty tank is a common reason a furnace will not light. If the tank is fine and the furnace still will not start, book furnace repair through the contact page.

Where do carbon monoxide alarms need to go?

The Ontario Fire Code requires a working carbon monoxide alarm next to each sleeping area in a home with a fuel-burning appliance, a fireplace or an attached garage. That includes most houses with a gas furnace or water heater. If an alarm sounds, get everyone outside and call the fire department from there rather than looking for the cause yourself. Test your alarms this week, replace any past their expiry date, and have the furnace looked at during a maintenance visit.

How do I know if my house heats with natural gas, propane or oil?

Most of Stoney Creek's land is still agricultural, and some rural properties, especially above the escarpment, are not on a natural gas main. Those homes may heat with propane from an outdoor tank or with oil from a tank in the basement or yard. The burner, parts and venting differ with each fuel, so the technician needs to know before arriving. Look for a gas meter on the outside wall or a tank on the property, then mention the fuel when you get in touch.
