Heating and cooling in Dundas
Who looks after furnaces and air conditioning in Dundas?
When the heat stops or the air conditioner quits in Dundas, 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 Dundas house usually have?
For Dundas households, Stoney Creek Heating repairs and maintains gas furnaces, central air and heat pumps. A strange noise or a cold house is unsettling, so we start with the likely cause in plain words, what you can look at yourself, and a written price that you approve before the repair goes ahead.
What brings Stoney Creek Heating to Dundas?
Dundas calls tend to come from a sound or a smell rather than a dead furnace. A rattle on start-up, a squeal from the blower, a dusty smell on the first cold day of autumn: each has a short list of usual causes, and most are not urgent. We come out, listen to the system run, and tell you which of those causes fits.
Which noises are worth a call, and which are normal?
A faint dusty smell when the heat first comes on in the fall is normal and fades within a cycle or two. A steady squeal often points to a blower motor or belt. A loud bang as the burners light can mean delayed ignition, which is worth having looked at soon. A furnace that clicks repeatedly and never lights is often an igniter or flame sensor.
Work is performed by TSSA-certified gas technicians, so anything involving the burners or the gas valve is left to them rather than to a homeowner with a screwdriver.

Learn moreQuestions from Dundas homeowners
My furnace in Dundas bangs when it starts. Should I turn it off?
A single bang as the burners light is often delayed ignition, where gas builds up for a moment before it catches. It is not something to ignore, but it is rarely a reason to panic. Set the thermostat lower so the furnace starts less often and book a furnace repair visit. If the noise comes with a gas smell, leave the house and call the gas utility from outside.
How much does it usually cost to repair an air conditioner?
It depends on the fault. A failed capacitor or contactor is a modest repair; a refrigerant leak or a worn compressor is a much larger one. Work is performed by 313A refrigeration and air conditioning mechanics. Before calling, it is safe to check the breaker, set the thermostat to cool, change the filter and clear leaves or debris from around the outdoor unit. If it still is not cooling, you get a written price before any work starts. Read more about air conditioner repair.
Is there a rebate or tax credit for a new furnace, heat pump or air conditioner?
Programs open, change and close often, so any answer written here would soon be out of date. Eligibility usually depends on the type of equipment, the fuel you are moving from and the rules in place on the day you apply. Rather than guess, ask when you are planning the work and current rebates are checked at the time you ask, before you commit to anything. Start with the page on heat pumps.
