Why Heat Pumps Are a Smart Choice in November

As temperatures dip in November and homeowners in the Durham Region and Toronto begin preparing for winter, many start evaluating how to keep their homes warm efficiently and affordably.
One solution continues to rise in popularity across Ontario: heat pumps.
If you’re considering a home comfort upgrade, here’s why November is the perfect time to install a heat pump, and why Twintech Heating & Cooling is the trusted local expert to get the job done.
1.
Heat Pumps Offer Efficient Heating for Cool November Temperatures
November weather in Southern Ontario is unpredictable — cold mornings, mild afternoons, and the occasional frost.
Heat pumps thrive in this kind of climate.
Why they excel in November:
They move heat instead of generating it, lowering energy consumption.
They maintain consistent indoor comfort as outdoor temperatures fluctuate.
Modern cold-climate systems work efficiently even below freezing.
This means you start saving on energy bills before winter fully hits, while still staying comfortable.
2.
You Can Take Advantage of Pre-Winter Rebates and Incentives
Many Ontario homeowners don’t realize that heat pumps often qualify for federal, provincial, and local rebates, especially before peak heating season.
Installing in November allows you to:
Secure rebates before program funds run out.
Avoid seasonal price increases.
Get ahead of the winter rush when appointment slots fill quickly.
Twintech Heating & Cooling stays current with all available rebates and can help you maximize your savings.
3.
Heat Pumps Provide Both Heating AND Cooling
One of the biggest advantages of a heat pump is year-round comfort.
By installing in November, you’ll be ready for:
Efficient heating all winter
Air conditioning in the spring and summer
Dehumidification during humid Ontario summers
Instead of two separate systems, you get one efficient, cost-effective solution.
4.
Lower Energy Bills Just in Time for Winter
Heating costs traditionally spike during the winter months in Durham Region and Toronto.
Heat pumps can significantly offset these costs by using far less electricity than baseboards or electric furnaces — and drastically less energy than oil or propane systems.
A November installation means:
Reduced heating costs starting immediately
Lower long-term energy use
Better predictability in monthly heating expenses 5.
Heat Pumps Improve Indoor Air Quality
During November, as households close windows for the season, indoor air quality tends to decline.
Heat pumps help in several ways:
They circulate and filter air more effectively than traditional systems.
Many models reduce humidity, preventing mold and stale air.
Cleaner indoor air leads to healthier living conditions just as cold and flu season arrives.
6.
Avoid the Winter Installation Rush
Many homeowners wait until December or January to upgrade heating systems — usually when something breaks down.
By scheduling a November installation, you get:
Faster appointment availability
More personalized service
Time to evaluate options instead of rushing during an emergency
Twintech’s certified technicians ensure your system is installed professionally and ready before winter’s coldest days arrive.
Whether you live in a modern condo, heritage home, semi-detached, or suburban family house, there are heat pump solutions tailored to your space.

From the initial contact we had an excellent experience with this company and all its personnel. Dave Gergley was an excellent, helpful, sales person and solicitous of our needs. He recommended only what was required and did not up sell or make any suggestions for products that we did not need, such as a new A.C. He explained the rebate process and basically outlined how to get the best furnace at the lowest price. When it was time for installation, the technicians could not have been more considerate, careful, attentive to detail, obviously committed to safety and optimum functioning of the appliance they were setting up. We have been perfectly satisfied with the functioning of the furnace and all aspects of acquiring it from the initial contact with Dave through to the installation process and follow ups inquiring about our satisfaction. Also they initiated the rebate process and contacted the appropriate inspection agency to carry it out. We highly recommend this company for all heating and cooling needs and we will contact them again when it is time to replace our A.C.
Twintech was excellent from the initial quote and throughout the install. They had a competitive rate for hot water tank and ended up buying the tank from them, had them remove the old tank and install the new one. The day of install they were prompt and out in about 2 hours. Professional , courteous really great guys. We took a look at my 30 year old furnace and they were able to offer some suggestions for future there too.
Ever since I turned on my furnace on Oct 2018 I hear a humming sound when the furnace fan kicks in. I called Adamson Air System who installed my furnace 7 years ago and couldn't figure it out the problem. I just wasted money to the guy who couldn't figure it out. I found Twin Tech via Amana / Goodman website. I checked the reviews from previous Twin Tech customers. I called Greg and was onsite on time this morning Sunday, Nov 25 2018. He figured it out what's wrong with the furnace and explained what the previous installer (adamson air system) did wrong when they installed it. His knowledgeable about his job. He recommend to replace the fun motor because the sound is not normal when it's running. Looking forward to see him again to replace the fan motor.
Our house is over 22 years old and I had been researching furnaces and A/C brands for a while and thought it was time to take the plunge. After calling three different companies to come in and quote the job, this one won me over. From the first visit from Dave all the way to the end of the install by Greg, Grant, and Piotr, I was glad to have picked this company. Dave was very knowledgeable and really took the time to explain what kind of quality installation I was going to get as well as showing me some of their previous work and certificates.
I was also surprised at how quick the installation took and how nice everything looked afterward, I mean it's only a furnace right? They even re positioned the furnace so that I have easier access to my filter and humidistat, awesome! If you are looking for a company that cares about their customers and is proud about the quality of work they do, along with a great and competitive price, then stop right here because you found it.
Once our AC Unit started to fail, I called our past Heating & Cooling provider for support. The response was we needed a new motor for our Furnace. It was time to check their Quote against the marketplace, I reached to other providers online. One of the owner of Twintech (Greg), called me and offered a preliminary Quote and recommendation online. The others needed to set an appointment and came to measure and spend 1 hour before offering a quote. Then I asked Twintech to come finalize their quote to make sure their recommendation was aligned and met our needs.
Twintech was professional throughout the process, easy to deal with (Web, Phone and in Person), price right and met their commitment. Their team expedited the process and installation, arranged for a energy assessment for available rebates and most importantly, delivered on their commitment and managed to do a few extras. They installed a New Furnace, AC unit and Nest thermostat in a day, remove all older units, left the house and outdoors clean and without any debris. Great to be able to support a Local Company, Neighbour and Professional team - Well Done Team Twintech !!!
In October 2018, I contacted Greg at Twintech to do a furnace cleaning. Greg discovered that my furnace, installed in 2006 by another company, had been installed incorrectly, leading to restricted air flow. The heat exchanger was also defective. As well, my furnace was too large for the size of my house.
In my opinion, the biggest concern most of us have as consumers is that we have no idea of the quality or knowledge and experience of the technicians any heating and cooling company will send into our homes. I could have avoided having my 2006 furnace installed improperly (leading to early replacement), had I known about Twintech then.
With Twintech you get it all. Because Twintech is a smaller company you can rest assured that the only technicians who will work in your home are Greg and his twin brother Grant who are co-owners and fully licensed and certified with over 30 years of experience in installing and servicing heating and cooling equipment. They are both friendly and personable and answer all your questions. Their workmanship is outstanding. We had a 2 stage, variable speed Goodman furnace installed. My wife and I noticed a difference in the heating and even temperature of our 2 storey home almost immediately. Our old furnace always heated too much on the main floor and too little upstairs. We are also impressed with how quiet the furnace is.
Twintech's office manager, David Gergley, is equally friendly and not only gave us a competitive quote to replace our furnace (we sought other quotes), but also went above and beyond my expectations when he made arrangements with an energy audit company so that we would be considered for a grant from Enbridge and IESO.
Needless to say, I give Twintech a 10 out of 10 and highly recommend them!
Clean, Fast and Efficient Work. Between all the quotes I received Twintech was a few dollars less and offered the best warranty.
They did an excellent job. Everything was very well explained. At the end of the job everything was very well cleaned up.
Twintech offered me a competitive price but more importantly great sales and installation service. They did everything with attention to detail and quality workmanship that is hard to find in this day and age. Dave who first game to visit me answered most of my questions and probed about my needs. For the technical/install questions he was unable to answer he quickly had Greg and Grant the owners answer for me. They did not cut corners on the installation or do anything to simply save time. They stayed into the early evening to complete the job and removed all my old components and even fixed up mistakes other workers ahd made in the past. I would highly recommend them and use them again if the need arises in the future. If you are looking for service or new equipment I would highly recommend Twintech be on your list of Heating companies to get a quote from and ask your questions to.
The company epitomizes high quality service: from the initial client interaction with Dave to the installation and follow up with the technical team. One of the key features I look for is the ability of a technical person to talk to and not talk down to the customer when responding to questions and I had quite a few, all of which were very professionally addressed. I was also quite impressed with the follow up service, promptness, the obvious competence of the team who left no stone un-turned to ensure I was a satisfied customer. Thank you guys.

We are very happy to recommend this company to everyone. Our furnace broke down on Sunday morning. We phoned them and before noon Grant the owner showed up. He worked on the furnace for about a hour not wanting to give up to fix the problem. The furnace was 17 years old. I was the one talking about replacing it. End result was the next day it was all done. On the Sunday Bob came over with heaters to warm up the house. We decided to replace the water heater at the same time. Thanks Grant for the excellent work. Thumbs up.
Right on time. Explained how to work the HRV in a different way so the house would not be so dry. Changed my whole house water filter for me as well. Friendly, helpful, caring service!
Very pleased with the professional service that TwinTech Heating and Cooling provided in replacing my furnace. I got several quotes from different service providers. Their price was excellent and they explained the features very well. We are very glad we went with TwinTech and highly recommend their services.
We were new homeowners in need of a second opinion. TwinTech Heating & Cooling were Amazing and professional. Very knowledgeable and great service all around. Recommend to anyone looking for honest and reliable services. Treated with respect and care. Thank you Greg, Mitch and Bob!
TwinTech is an excellent and honest company! I called them for a second opinion after being told by another company that I needed to replace my furnace. Turns out this was not the case at all! I did not need a new furnace. TwinTech did not push to make an unnecessary sale and saved me from a huge expense. Bob and Mitch were extremely professional and above all honest! I definitely recommend TwinTech!
