Did it again!

Last year my furnace stopped working. Curt came and got it working. Well, this fall I went to start my furnace up again and it didn't start. Curt dropped by and quickly got it started. He also showed me the "magic" to get it going again in case it stops.
Jamison's service was prompt, helpful, friendly, and all around outstanding.

Hi DJ,

I think a little "magic" is needed with furnaces from time to time and Curt has the skill set and the magic. Thank you for the outstanding review!

Honest beyond beleive

I called for a heating issue with my 14 year old furnace not staying on.
Had no idea what to expect, this was a golden opportunity for Jamison or any other company to rape and pillageas I stated I had zero knowledge
Curt could find nothing wrong with the furnace and starting asking me a whole lot of questions he was not going to leave us cold, I told him I had put a nest thermostat in instantly he new and fixed the problem Curt completely reworked the nest now Im warm his rate for what he did and the time he took to explain was more than fair He could have told me I needed a new furnace , Jamison will do all my future work honesty and integrity is hard to find nowadays

Thank you kindly for taking the time to leave a review of your experience with us, and indeed, candid honesty is what you can expect from us, for better and for worse ;)

PSA for anyone reading this that has a Nest thermostat that's experiencing furnace or AC trouble such as the furnace/AC not turning on, or turning on then turning off again a handful os seconds later:
Check the wiring for the Nest to ensure there's a wire connected to the C terminal on the Nest. Nest's installation literature cites this connection as "optional", but many furnaces and AC systems will behave erratically (or fail outright) when controlled by a Nest thermostat that DOESN'T have said C-wire connection made.

Excellent service and trusting advisor

Our furnace died in the middle of a cold snap in Alberta this winter. Jamison Furnace was there to help us. It turns out a critical component was done after 17 years of service. Curt advised us to replace instead of fix. That was the right call. He gave us options and helped us decide with his great knowledge. Then got us the furnace in a very timely manner and did a professional installation. Curt has done work for us for many years and I would not trust anyone else with our HVAC needs.

Thank you for your kind words Moy. It's unfortunate that replacing your furnace instead of repairing it was the most prudent course of action, my bias is heavily in favor of repair over replacement as that's usually where value for the homeowner lies, though in this case going the repair route would've been throwing good money after bad. Happy to help, and thank you so much for the gift of your unused beer making gear!

Furnace service check up and maintenance

My furnace went out three times during the cold snap around Christmas/New Year and I had 2 other companies in who temporarily got it running again. Then a friend recommended Jamison Furnace. Kirk was knowledgeable and efficient. He took the time to address the problem/cause, not just the symptom and got my furnace running as good as new. Its been over a month, and no problems. He did more work, and charged less, than the other two companies.

Awe shucks, that's just what we do, though thank you for your kind words! Funny enough, I bet those other two companies that you'd previously had work on the furnace sounded like they'd be less expensive than us when you asked what their rates were. As the saying goes, "the cheapest contractor to get into your house is often the most expensive to get out of your house".

Thank you for your kind words, and all your referrals over the past decade! To us, referrals are the most sincere compliment we can receive, as we know that every time a referral is given, the referrer risks having their reputation compromised if the people they referred doesn't deliver a great experience.

Air Conditioner Installation Takeover

When I was wanting to install an air conditioner Curt was my first choice. He identified exactly what model would best fit my criteria. Unfortunately the model was not available to him and I had to source the AC and have it installed by another company.

I ended up having concerns about the quality of workmanship the other company provided and contacted Jamison Furnace. He provided advice to me and reached out to the other company to help and offered to finish the installation.

Curt and his team were under no obligation but completed the installation to my expectations which I suspect are higher than many consumers but hopefully reasonable. The work was completed on time and on budget.

Hiring Jamison Furnace may have cost a little more than other HVAC companies but I would not hesitate to recommend them for your project or service requirements.

Approximate cost of services:
$3,000.00

BRANDS
We use Goodman brand equipment as our house brand for furnaces and air conditioners, and Sterling for our garage heaters, as we've found these brands to exceed our high standards for product quality, product support, and price point, thus in our eyes providing the most value for our clients. It's worth noting that while there are about 30 equipment brand names in the North American residential heating and cooling market, these 30 brands are being owned and produced by 6 corporations, creating an illusion of choice for consumers, as opposed to true choice. These days, purchasing a brand with brand recognition buys you that alone, as the major brands who earned a quality reputation over the second half of the last century have been simply coasting on that reputation for the past 20+ years, as opposed to actually living up to it.
