Air Handler Replacement, Etobicoke

I needed my air handler replaced in a very tight space. After consulting a few other companies with very poor service, I contact McKinnon. Despite calling and leaving my information on a Saturday afternoon, Michael, the companies president, returned my call within a short time. He was able to provide a quotation for the work from a few photos and after quoting me a price that was much more reasonable than the other companies I called, I promptly gave Michael the go ahead. McKinnon was able to schedule the work very quickly and completed the replacement to my satisfaction. I will definitely be calling McKinnon again, when needed. I highly recommend this company to any with HVAC needs.

Replaced boiler and water tank

My water tank stopped working on new year's eve. Mckinnon technician came in the next day to assess the situation. We ended up replacing the old boiler which was no longer manufactured, and the tank with a combo unit.
I am very pleased with the speedy service and with Michael's recommendations.

Furnace replacement

Earlier this week, we needed to replace our home furnace, and called McKinnon, as they have serviced our heating and air-conditioning for many years. They arrived at our house within the hour to look at what we needed, then sent several quotes, and installed our new furnace within a further two days. Their installation technicians were extremely friendly, efficient and did a great clean up job once they were done. We have nothing but great things to say about McKinnon. Thanks for your prompt service.

Boiler System

First class service starting with the repair of the old system, to identification of a gas leak, to explaining the replacement options (pros and cons of each), to procurement of new unit, to installation and startup - all within 36 hours. Excellent follow up the next day. Technicians worked safely and neatly and were pleasant to have in the house.

New Water Heater

I had a good experience with McKinnon when I had to replace my AC unit and furnace within the past five or so years. So when I was looking into options for a new water heater, I made sure to contact them again. I looked into my options and got various quotes, and the quote from McKinnon was certainly the best one. I was told it could take hours to install the thing, but to my surprise, the job was done within an hour and a half. I was impressed with the speedy and tidy job. I'm very happy with the service from McKinnon and would definitely recommend them for anyone's HVAC needs.

Furnace replacement

My 20 year old furnace died in the middle of a cold spell. I called about 8:00 am on a Tuesday, and a repairman was at my door by about 12:30. Unfortunately, the old beast was beyond repair and tagged as unsafe. A day and a half later (Thursday), installers showed up, took the old furnace away, installed a new one, and everything is working fine. I was very pleased with the speedy service, especially considering the pressure on an HVAC company during a cold spell. FYI, I opted for the priciest unit, thinking it will ultimately be the best value. BTY, they did me a similar solid several years ago when my air conditioner died during a heat wave.

Very professional and reasonable price!

our Heater broke down on the coldest night of the year, Michael and crew tried to fix it by changing 1 piece but it was not possible so he changed the whole unit the next day, professional and with a reasinable price, did the cleaning after.
I recommend them to everyone, bless you Lord!

Sean, Thank you for your review. Michael tried his best to repair your existing furnace but often, the best solution is to replace it, given the age. We always replace equipment promptly as we know how inconvenient and uncomfortable it can be in a home without heating.

Thank you for your confidence in Mckinnon, we appreciate your business very much.
