Toronto is in close proximity to lake Ontario, very close actually. This huge body of water adds a lot of moisture to the air. In the winter when cold water passes over the warm water in the lake it forms lake effect snow. It is slightly less visible in the summer months but as water evaporates it moisture level increases and makes hot weather feel even hotter. Weather reports sometimes include the humidex which is a temperature rating of how hot it feels outside verse how hot it actually is. What does all this have to do an air conditioner in Toronto?
Easy, Toronto’s proximity to lake Ontario add significant amounts of moisture into the surrounding air increasing the humidex rating and therefore making that home air conditioner that much more valuable.
If you question why an air conditioner is related to a humidex value then it is important to know that air conditioners both cool and dehumidify air making it comfortable and liveable in your home. Do you need an air conditioner if you live in Toronto? This is a subjective question, as it is possible to succumb to heat stroke but the chances are slim. There is no question that is certainly will make your home more comfortable and it is definitely a selling feature for any house.
A mild winter like we are experiencing here in Ontario with temperatures much warmer than normal may lead into a hot humid summer. So if you like a great deal and want to ensure a cool house during the heat wave that this summer may turn into than now is a great time look at upgrading your air conditioner. New models have been redesigned and offer great energy savings over units that are over 7 years old. Contact us and we can assess your air conditioner for efficiency and operational health and replace or install a new one at a great price.
It’s winter here in Canada, January in fact, and you wouldn’t really know it with the day we had today. 
If it gets any warmer people may have to think about starting up their air conditioners. It’s weird to think but at the rate were going the next piece of extinct equipment is going to be the furnace.
Whats the connection between an air conditioner and winter here in Toronto?
Well, it’s simple and air conditioner can be one of the cheapest form of heating. Some new A/C units have inverter technology installed into the new modern air conditioners. This technology allows owners to expect almost four times the amount of kw heating out of one single kw of power.
In the near future you may have an air conditioner installation as opposed to a furnace for your homes heating needs.

It’s is really important that you cover your air conditioner during the winter months to keep the elements out. 
Unfortunately there are a lot of people that will tell you covering your air conditioner is bad for it, they are partly correct but ohh so wrong.
Water is an air conditioners Kriptonite, it starts to rust the metal and deteriorate the bearings and electric motor. A cover will not only work to deflect rain and snow but also fight condensation that can build up if improperly designed. If the cover has a plastic inside then its of low quality and will not prevent condensation. The best covers have a fibrous material that will whisk the moisture away from the unit protecting it from rust.
There are a number of places that sell good quality covers, keep your eyes open for sales and don’t forget that your air conditioner lives outside in the thick of Toronto’s elements.

Winterizing or shutting your A/C down properly for the season is an important part of extending the life of the unit. Here are the steps you should take to ensure your air conditioner is in top top shape come next summer.
- Wash you A/C thoroughly with the hose, remove leaves, grass, and any dirt before covering it.
- Allow the unit to completely dry and physically remove any leftover debris.
-
Drain any water from your window-mounted evaporation-cooler air conditioner. Evaporative coolers, cool the air by pumping water over a set of cooling pads. Any water that you leave in the cooler will freeze and can damage costly parts, so make sure to drain it well. (not very common in Canada)
- Cover you air conditioner with an appropriate cover to restrict water and snow access that could rust your unit.
- Secure the cover with bungee cords or ropes so that it does not shift or blow away.
- Periodically check the cover during the winter to ensure that it is performing as it should.
And that is how you should winterize your air conditioner.

If you struggled through this year with a marginally efficient air conditioner, then the end of year deals happening now may be your ticket to better air conditioner. 
As the A/C season nears its completion HVAC shops look to get rid of some of their inventory and bring in furnaces for the upcoming heating season. For most shops space is valuable and storing air conditioners for the winter season is not worth cost. On top of that the unit will need to be sold as “last years model” so the most economical thing to do is sell them off.
Deep discounts are usually offered and can net you between 40 and 75 percent off. Shop around and get your home a Eco friendly energy efficient home air conditioner.

This hasn’t been one of the hottest summers but it certainly has been a good one. There have been a number of days above 30 degrees and most people had their air conditioners just humming away. If you suffered through this year without an A/C the end of a season can offer you some good deals that you may want to consider. 
Most HVAC companies stockpile air conditioners so that when they get the call for a new system it can literally be installed the next day. As space is a premium at most facilities selling the unsold units off ends up saving the company money in the long run. This is also a great time to upgrade you air conditioner as well, it your running anything older than 14 years its time to upgrade.

The weather is continuing to be hot and humid here in Ontario, Toronto is forecast to continue this trend for most of the summer..
This is certainly a different situation than last summer as it was cool and wet for the majority of the summer. Toronto has already had more hot days than all of last year and realistically we just starting summer still. Its a good time to get your air conditioner tuned as the rest of next week is looking to be around the 30 degree range. Your air conditioner might not have even ran once last summer as the temperatures were so low, this puts undue stress on the unit as many moving parts have shifted in over 2 years. An air conditioner server will make sure all these pieces are well greased and that you air conditioning unit is in good shape for the great HOT summer we are having here in Toronto.
Well step outside and its obvious we are in a bit of a heat wave, we have received hundreds of inquiries for air conditioner service as well as replacement units. We try and stress that you have your equipment serviced regularly so that its not breaking down when you need it most but it can be difficult as it is designed to be as invisible as possible. 
A good portion of Toronto west went with out power today as a transformer caught on fire and effectively removed 930 megawatts from the Ontario grid. Luckily our power supply is well connected to our neighbours and we are able to purchase their excess power until the unit is fixed. It certainly makes you realize how much you use electricity when its suddenly not there.
During heat waves like this its a good idea to listen to you air conditioner and see how long it runs for, if you never hear it stop you may have a problem. If this is the case let us know and we can come by and give you some advice on whether the air conditioner need replacement has been inappropriately sized for your home or just needs a quick service call. Our first consultation is always free so send us a quick message with your issue and we will call you back to schedule a time when you will be home.
