Our customers always ask us what they should look for when they buy a new AC unit, so we’ve put together this guide to buying a new air conditioner.


Energy efficiency ratings. Buying a furnace with a great SEER rating is worth it. Efficiency matters and can save you money over time, so try and get one with a 95% efficiency rating or higher.


Get an accurate estimate. Our customers are always impressed by our estimates because it always stays in that ballpark with no surprise expenses.


Government Rebates. Make sure you know what rebates you’re entitled to when you upgrade an old system to an energy efficient one. The Ontario Power Authority offers rebates through contractors who are registered.


Quality Guarantee/Warranties. Warranties differ with every model/brand, but when you get Twintech to install your air conditioner, you can be sure the installation will be quality work! The adage is that reliability is based only 40% on what brand you buy, but 60% on the quality of installation.


Renting. If you’re hesitant about all the high upfront costs that buying a brand new unit comes with, we have a great rental service that lets you avoid a big down payment, as well as some repair costs.


Twintech Heating and Cooling makes it easy to get a new air conditioning unit in your home. If you found our guide to buying a new air conditioner helpful, call us at 1-844-894-6832 or visit our website at www.twintechheating.ca for more information!

by Trevor Owens on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I returned from vacation to find my AC unit on the Fritz. After calling way too many places I connected with TwinTech. I’ve used the company in the past for my furnace so I was happy when I recognized Greg at my front door. He’s great and the service is always top notch. I’d highly recommend using twintech for honest, superior service in the Durham region. Thanks!

by Nicole Alain on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I called Twin Tech when my air conditioning stopped working. Greg came over to diagnose the issue - the same day. He was able to diagnose the issue and resolve it quite quickly. Although it was a quick fix, Greg was very thorough in explaining the issue and provided great advice. Not to mention, I felt very comfortable having Greg in my home - which I consider very important when hiring a service provider. Twin Tech will be my go-to from now on. Thank you!!

Twintech Heating & Cooling installed my furnace in 2022 and in fall of 2023 installed my Panasonic Heat Pump. Greg and Mitch did a great job. Helped me through the rebate process.

by Colin Vernon on Twintech Heating and Cooling

They've cleaned my furnace a couple of times and mentioned that the hot water tank standards were going to change soon so I decided to change mine out.

There were a few challenges during the process but the installers handled the problems without missing a stride! I now have really hot water again!

by Heidi B on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Highly recommend Twintech Heating company, we got honest and detailed information on what was needed to replace and install a new gas furnace. Bob and Greg made us feel comfortable withe process through their thorough explanation and knowledge of the right furnace for our needs. The professionalism and courteous friendly attitude towards the customer is what we liked the most as they treated us like family. So happy with our decision and new furnace we will be looking into get our rental water heater replaced and installed by Twintech team.

Customer service and knowledge is priority in this industry, and Twintech has it. I've dealt with their team for maintenance and a furnace replacement. They're accommodating and make great recommendations, and came through at a great price over the big guys in the industry. They'll be my next call when I need service or maintenance.

by Leonard Glass on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I decided that the noises and age of the existing furnace which was old and not very efficient to replace it. Gave Greg a call and Grant and Greg got to work on it. Because of supply issues with the current heating type that would be an easier install Greg convinced me to change the location of the system and it would provide me better service for heat and efficiency. I had skeptical but went ahead anyway putting trust in Greg And Grant. Greg, Grant and Mitch came through and in 2 days had completely relocated my heating and A/C system. I can honestly say Greg was right my old house has been warmer and more evenly heated as it ever was. For anyone reading this rather long winded review can take my word for it, Twin Tech can take care of your needs.
