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.

Very impressed with this company. They show up on time , kept my place clean and after they left it looks like they were never there. Very professional team. Those people know what they doing . Their installation was on the highest standard. They are very knowledgeable especially they're worker Peter. I strongly recommend this company to everybody. After the installation I receive the call making sure I'm satisfied with their products and their job. Bravo!!!
Greg and his brother were referred to us by a friend. They arrived when they said they would, did an exceptional job and left the place as tidy or tidier then they found it. Their professionalism is only surpassed by their kind and friendly demeanor. Even after several calls to help me with my high tech thermostat I feel that I could always call with any concern (No one responds to my texts as quickly as Greg) and have a friendly helpful response. I found out their grandfather started the company and now as a 3rd generation company, they are doing their grandfather proud. I would highly recommend Twintech over any other hvac company out there.
Thanks to the guys at Twintech Heating for a great job installing a new hot water tank. They set a time and day to remove the old tank and install the new one. They were on time and had the work done quickly and cleaned up after they were finished. Excellent work and great value.
In November, we contacted Twintech for a quote on a high efficiency furnace plus installation. Dave, the sales representative for the company was very friendly and informative. Upon arrival at our home, he willingly showed us his company licenses, clearly explained the operation of a high efficiency furnace and answered all our questions to our satisfaction. As well, Dave was the only sales representative that we contacted that was willing to make the arrangements for an energy audit. For us, this was a big plus as we found the government rebate program somewhat confusing to navigate. The furnace was installed on the date that was arranged in an efficient and professional manner by Greg (the owner) and Peter. Both men worked diligently, throughout a long day to complete the job and upon finishing, left the job site immaculate. When a neighbour raised concerns about the furnace venting location, Greg located an alternative location and resolved the situation with diplomacy. We chose the Napoleon furnace for its excellent warrant;y on the heat exchanger and because it was made in Canada! In addition, to the furnace warranty, Twintech offered us a 5 year warranty on labour which speaks to the quality and pride this team has in their workmanship. It has been over a month now (with some of the coldest January days on record) since we have had the furnace installed. The furnace runs quietly and distributes heat more evenly throughout our 90 year old Toronto home. We can't speak highly enough of the Twintech team and are very satisfied with their workmanship and job ethics. We have no hesitation about recommending them.
What more could you ask for! Grant and Greg Dainty provided a professional,diligent and thorough approach to the installation of my furnace. I would highly recommend there services.
Last week our Furnace failed overnight. We called Twintech to help us get it running again. They did a really thorough check on it, and got it running in less than an hour. Given that it was an old Furnace (+20 years old), we were giving two options: repair it or replace it. Instead of doing a repair on it that could break in a week or two, they recommended us to change it. I like that they were honest on the recommendation, not forcing a new furnace on us. At the end we went with a new Furnace. Twintech solutions service & salesman gave us recommendation on the size of the unit and many options that could work for our home. They ended up doing an excellent work in our furnace, replacing the filter to a better option and replacing some pieces that had water damage. They cleaned after themselves and leave everything even better than what they found. They even went far and beyond tiding up the hose connections that we had on the basement.
I am in the process of finishing my basement and wanted to make sure I got the low hanging duct work fixed in advance. After reviewing 5 quotes I selected Twintech to award the contract to. The price was competitive however what won me over was Grant's (co-owner) attention to detail and his ability to focus on what my goals and priorities were for the project. His team completed the job over 3 days as there was significant duct work changes and the relocation of all of the equipment. They also completed the job with little downtime so we weren't left overnight without heat during freezing winter temperatures.
My father woke up to no heat one Saturday morning. We had a few names that friends had recommended but while checking out the companies' ratings on HomeStars, we found Twintech with great ratings too. The other companies either didn't get back to us or didn't have time to come at such short notice. TwinTech made the time in their schedule for what they judged to be an emergency: no heat in the home of an elderly person. At no extra fee for a short notice, weekend visit. They recommended an upgraded furnace unit and explained that we would qualify for a rebate that would bring the price down to that of a lower model. They set us up with the rep from the MNR that covers the rebate so that we didn't have to deal with the paperwork & phone calls ourselves. Installation was quick, efficient, & smooth. We were so pleased with their service we ordered a new water heater too. Both are working great (efficient & quiet!) & my father is safe & comfortable. We can't say enough about how pleased we are with their service. We have already recommended them to others.
Twintech Heating & Cooling. I just want to say thanks for helping me . My Furnace stopped working. And l phone Dave Getgley he set me up with Greg. What an amazing team they did a great job in setting me up with a new Furnace. Anyone that needed a new Furnace these are the guys to call. Thanks again for a job well done.
Our home has had poor heating and air conditioning the past couple of years. Dave recommended a Goodman solution with more power than we had. Grant and Greg installed the units in late November. Heating is better than ever. We have a warm home again and look forward to the winter. Can't wait to see how the AC runs in 2018. Job was super clean and professionally done. Highly recommended.

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!
