Here’s What Others Say About Us!

Excellent
5.0
We have been using Distinct since 2020 when we originally had them come up for a warranty repair on a furnace they did not install. Since then we have had them back a few times for additional repairs as well as some new ducts for a renovation we were doing. Everyone from the owner Nate to every tech has been amazing. Aiden recently came out and even waited for me to come home to make sure the job was to my satisfaction.

We really wish we had found this company when we intially installed our furnace and we would have likely avoided a ton of problems from the previous installers. Highly recommend them based on both their professionalism, quality of work and fair pricing!
I was not in a state of panic about my furnace. I had a 25-year-old house with a 25-year-old furnace and wanted to get an upgrade without calling a company at 3 am needing to get the new one in now.
I had information packages from a Home Show a couple of years back and called in 2 companies for a quote.
The first company in did a walk about, asked a few questions and sent me a quote with 3 different options and combinations.
Nate from Distinct showed up; on time - did a walk around, asked many questions, pointed out several issues and problems with my current set up. Nate also explained exactly what they would do, how the job would go, the remedies to the issues he revealed and how York was a quality product with a very good warranty.
Nate then went through the various products they offered – all being the York brand, and explained the differences, and the benefits of each. We spent over one 1.5 hours and only ended because I had an online meeting. Following the meeting, I had a few more phone questions, before I made the choice to go with Distinct.
Two weeks later, Nate, Christian and Jordan completed the set up on the furnace, and did the rough in on the AC. The job took two full days, with dozens of measurements, (more like hundreds) making sure all was level, aligned and was finished to look neat, compact and easy to access for future maintenance. They even made sure that if I (or a future owner) wanted to finish the basement, all the work was done to make the finishing work easier.
During the install, all three who did the work answered all my questions, seemed to actually enjoy working together and were professional, pleasant and most of all - competent.
As an additional comment, Nate went beyond the scope of the normal job and sourced and installed 3 louvered vent covers, which were quite the eye sore. When you get him in for a quote, ask him about my steel roof! Not sure he will ever go up on one in winter ever again!
Summary
Over the last 2-3 months, I have spent a great deal of time researching the various HVAC brands and products available in Calgary.
My choice came down not to the brand, for I feel most of the major brands have good product, but to the quality of the install. That is why I went with Distinct and everything I have experienced so far confirms I made the right choice.

We just had Distinct Heating and Cooling replace our two furnaces and air conditioner in our home in March. They were excellent. The two gentleman who worked on removing the old furnaces and air conditioner, and then replacing with new units were truly remarkable.

They were so thorough and meticulous in their work. It looks amazing in our furnace room. The went above and beyond our expectations. They were here for 3 full days as it was a huge job. They were super neat and tidy each day, cleaning up and putting things aside for the next day. They were organized, worked extremely hard all day and explained what was going on each morning and the progress being made. There was no wasted time, they just got to it and put in long days to get it done.

The work looks amazing. Both furnaces and the new air conditioner are so much more efficient now and we can feel the difference already with the heating system. We look forward to the cooling in the hot summer months. We also like that the new air conditioner is not a big old clunky green unit like we used to have. It's now attached to the side of the house and looks so much better.

We had originally met with the owner when we were getting quotes for this job, and we were impressed by his knowledge of what needed doing, especially as he looked around and found things the previous owner of our home had done in the basement development that needed fixing. He assured us that it would be done right and done well. He was not kidding. We know this system will serve us well for many years to come. We will continue to use Distinct for service moving forward.

We highly recommend them to anyone looking to have work done on their home heating and cooling systems. You simply couldn't find a more professional company, whose owner and staff are wonderful to deal with, who treat your home like it's their own and really care about doing the job to the highest standards.

Thank you all so much for the great experience we had and for the excellent job that was done! We are extremely happy with everything!

We have been using Distinct Heating & Cooling for our furnace and AC servicing for many years. Their technicians are so knowledgeable and professional.

We have a pretty old furnace that was intermittently failing, but Distinct was able to send Ed over and fix it right up. I was worried with past not-so friendly technicians, but they were great and always kept me notified when they would arrive. The important part was that Ed was willing to listen to my concerns despite the initial fix. He stayed around and diagnosed all other furnace issues to have it running prime until we decide to replace it in the future. Great service and handiwork! Will absolutely recommend them!
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave Ed a 5 star review! We are happy to hear that Ed was able to diagnose your furnace issue and do a same day repair for you.

We had our furnace replaced on one of the coldest days of the year. Kristian and Jaden were complete professionals, and had us up and running in a matter of hours.

We are happy to hear you had a good experience with us and appreciate your recommendation and support of our small family run business! Have a wonderful Christmas!
Noticed our almost 13 year old A/C unit was short cycling which resulted in high humidity levels in the house. Distinct Heating & Cooling was recommended to us so we contacted them to come and take a look. They sent Jordan over just a few days later for an assessment. Jordan was prompt, friendly and very knowledgeable about what was going on and made a few recommendations for fixing or replacing the unit. We have since met with Nate for replacement options as it made the most financial sense given the age of our current unit. Nate was very professional, and knowledgeable on all things A/C. We loved how detailed their work is, how much pride they take with their customers and installations, and that they employ journeymen mechanics who specialize in this area. Looking forward to cooler days next Summer. Would recommend Distinct Heating & Cooling

** UPDATE - DEC 5th, We had our A/C fully installed by Kristian and Jaden. They were on time, friendly and polite, plus everything was cleanly installed. Jaden explained the new Thermostat and all its features, while Kristian explained everything in the furnace room and what he did to get our new unit installed. All the improvements they made when uncovering some bad work previously done was also amazing. Their care and attention was so appreciated. Couldn't be happier and would highly recommend Distinct and their team to anyone. Thank you!
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave us a 5 star review Heidi! We are happy to hear that Jordan was prompt, friendly and knowledgeable and provided you with his recommendation of either fixing the unit or replacing it. Nate truly enjoys meeting our customers in person to go over his recommendations when our customers have decided to go the replacing route and we are happy to hear that your experience with Nate was just as positive as with Jordan. We love providing detailed quotes as well as making sure all of our technicians are Journeyman so you can be assured that you are getting the most trained and qualified technicians that take great pride in their work! Thank you for choosing our small family run business for this installation. We greatly appreciate it!
Ed was very knowledgeable and helpful. He was very kind and explained what was happening so thoroughly. He also took his time to make sure everything on our furnace was working as efficiently as possible. You could tell he really cared.
Response from the owner:Hi Barbara, Thank you for taking the time to leave Ed a 5 star review and for choosing our small family run business!

We are just thrilled about our new furnace and new air-conditioner that were installed by Kristian and Jaden. Both were very quick, everything was cleanly installed and we hardly knew that they were there. They made sure that every remnant of the install and old furnace was cleaned up and all garbage taken away. Kristian made sure to explain all that was needed and showed us how everything worked. We will eventually need a second furnace replaced and will definitely be calling Distinct heating and cooling. Great experience from start to finish! Thank you!
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave us a 5 star review Bobbie and for choosing our small family run business! We are happy to hear that Kristian and Jaden were quick, cleaned up properly and installed your equipment cleanly for you. Nate always say's "Just because it's in your electrical room doesn't mean it shouldn't look good too!" Taking the time to explain all of your new equipment and how everything works is a very important step for us so we are happy you appreciated that! We look forward to working with you for many years to come and are just a phone call away should you have any questions or need us for anything!

Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave us a 5 star review! We are happy to hear that our technician was knowledgeable, efficient, explained what he was doing and did a great job! Do you happen to remember what his name was? We would like to pass on your kind words to him but can't tell from your name on here which technician helped you out? Have a great day!
We had Distinct Heating & Cooling replace a very old furnace (42 years old in a very awkward location in basement) and add an A/C, humidifier, new Thermostat and CO2/Smoke Alarms. Nate the owner was very easy to work with and very open and receptive to our questions and concerns. His installation team of Kristian and Jaden showed up right on time all 3 days, were so very respectful to our property, so very polite and pleasant with us, and extremely patient explaining to us how all the new products work. They are definitely true assets and excellent representatives of Distinct Heating & Cooling. And Nate the owner was here himself for the first morning of the work, and last morning of some of the work, a very hands on owner which we appreciated very much. I would highly, highly recommend Distinct Heating & Cooling for any of your furnace and/or Air Conditioning requirements! They are absolutely amazing!
Steve P.

We have been using Distinct Heating and Cooling for over 10 years now and we have always been very satisfied with the service they provide. Our first experience with them was helping us transfer the warranty of the furnaces to our name when we first moved into our home. Ever since then we’ve used them for our annual maintenance. They are always professional, on time, and provide exceptional service. We’ve had the same technician, Ed Garcia, doing our service for a while now which is an added bonus since he knows the maintenance history and provides recommendations that I trust. He is always very thorough and takes his time to make sure everything is running efficiently.
Response from the owner:Hi John, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a 5 star review and for being such a loyal customer of ours over the past 10 years!

Thank you for your continued support of our small family run business John. We greatly appreciate it!
These guys are great. We met with Nate Burlando to discuss our air-conditioning needs. He came across his being extremely knowledgeable. Since having the air conditioner installed, we are using them for our furnace and air conditioner maintenance. The young gentlemen that come to our house are always very polite and extremely efficient. We feel very comfortable with them. I really appreciate their knowledge and professionalism. I would recommend this company to everyone.

We have used Distinct Heating to service our furnace for several years. Their technician Ed Garcia is always professional and has extensive knowledge of heating systems. He always is up front on what repairs or upgrades are needed, what the urgency of any the repair are and what is just something we should keep an eye on. No hard sell tactics, just honest recommendations. You won't go wrong having Distinct Heating look at your heating or cooling needs.

Nate and the whole team at Distinct Heating were a real pleasure to work with. This company goes above and beyond to provide an excellent outcome. Before starting our complicated, post-construction addition of mini-split heat pumps/air conditioners, Nate worked with us to find the best routes to accomplish the job, while limiting the number of walls we had to breach! Nate took the time to map out the details, and we are reaping the benefits. Every member of the team was courteous, conscientious and worked at the highest caliber. We can't say enough good about this company, and we have had much experience with many trades in Calgary. These guys are at the top. Thanks again, Nate and the gang! We have already recommended this company to neighbours and family members, and will continue to do so. It doesn't get better than this group for heating and cooling needs. Wow.

We just had Distinct Heating & Cooling come to our home to look into the thermostat issues we were having. This was installed 10 years ago along with our AC unit (which was also purchased from Distinct Heating & Cooling). From the moment we received the text that Aiden was on his way to the moment he left I felt very much taken care of. He went through the steps of trying to figure out why our thermostat wasn't working and after going through his trouble shooting, he let us know that things seemed to be working again. We fully intended on having to replace it but Aiden was very open about the fact that it may not actually need replacing and he'd hate for us to spend the money to do so when it might not need it. So instead of doing that, he ended up servicing our unit and replaced some much needed parts (Guys... if you haven't been diligent about servicing your AC unit... do it... I swear ours was about to launch itself into space before Aiden came and cleaned it up).

Aiden, thank you so much for all the information you gave us, for explaining things so clearly (and then re-explaining it when I couldn't remember certain terms, and then doing it all over again when I rendered my understanding useless and just called my hubby for you to explain it to him directly so that he'd understand).

I am extremely grateful for such Aiden's amazing customer service, his patience, and his diligence in making everything run smoothly again.

Well done!
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave Aidan a 5 star review Jill! We are so happy to hear that you were happy with the customer service and knowledge that Aidan provided you! Our main goal with all of our customers, old and new, is to not sell you something you don't need but rather make sure that your existing equipment is safe to use and will provide you with reliability. You are 100% right that doing regular maintenance on your equipment is such an important step in making sure that your equipment will continue to run safely and efficiently for you for many years! We are happy to hear that Aidan took the time to explain everything to you and your husband and that you valued his amazing customer service, patience and diligence to make sure everything was running for you again. Thank you for choosing our small family run business. We greatly appreciate it!
For the last 8-9 years Ed Garcia has been doing the annual maintenance on our furnace and AC unit. He explains what he's found and done. They run flawlessly from one service to the next. I request him each year when I make the appointment.

We are so happy to hear that Ed has been doing a great job for you every year at your annual furnace and A/C maintenance.

We recently had Distinct Heating and Cooling replace our original furnaces and add two new air conditioning units. We were very happy with the support the owner, Nathan, provided in scoping and planning the job. We are also pleased with his commitment to ongoing support and service once the job is complete. The two installers, Kristian and Jaden, were punctual and very pleasant to work with. We were very impressed that they left the work area clean and safe at the end of each day. They spent a significant amount of time explaining how to operate our new equipment and controls when the job was complete. We will happily recommend Distinct to anyone looking to upgrade their HVAC system.
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave us a 5 star review Brad! We are so grateful that you chose our small family run business to complete your installation!

We are happy to also hear that you were happy with Kristian and Jaden being punctual and pleasant to work with as well as leaving your home clean and safe at the end of each day.

We recently had Distinct Heating and Cooling replace our old furnace, humidifier, and thermostat. Kristian and Jayden were extremely polite and professional. I was very impressed with how clean they kept the area during their time here and they also left it tidier than when they came! Kristian was very thorough on his walk thru afterwards, explaining everything they had done and how to set the new thermostat. I would highly recommend Distinct to anyone needing HVAC services!

Customer walk throughs are so important to us to make sure that you know how all of your new equipment works and you are comfortable with everything before we leave and answer any questions you may have. Your recommendation of our company means so much to us! We hope you have a wonderful summer and thank you again for choosing our small family run business. We greatly appreciate it!
Nate and his team of Kristian, Jaden, and Aidan did an amazing job of our hot water, furnace, and A/C install. This has been the best experience with contractors I have had. The communication was excellent. Email, text, and voice mail. I also appreciate that they would send a picture of the person coming to our house. I can not recommend Distinct Heating & Cooling enough. They were amazing. They left the house in better shape when they left and did a through walk through after everything was done. They were also extremely helpfully setting up the city inspection.
The team has great passion for their work and we could not be happier. Thank you so much Nate and team. Excellent service!!!!
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave us a 5 star review!

Thank you again for your kind review and for choosing our company. We greatly appreciate it!
This company responded very quickly to an issue we were having with our AC unit (our unit was quite old and installed with another company) and sent over Jordan. He was courteous, professional and very easy to deal with. Would definitely recommend this company!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to leave Jordan a 5 star review! We have been blessed to have Jordan as part of our Distinct family for well over a decade now and are happy to hear he was courteous, professional and easy to deal with. Your recommendation means so much to us and thank you again for choosing our small family run business. We greatly appreciate it!
I had several companies through for ideas on how best to approach my home's heating and cooling. I had two pretty new furnaces put in by a previous owner. Those were put in by Alberta Indoor Comfort and they did a terrible job and were outright unethical in their response to any challenge by me. Luckily, around the time I was about to make a decision, I found Distinct's work in a neighbour's home and was very impressed with how neat and tidy their work was...so I gave them a call and away we went. The 2 furnaces were removed, replaced by a new one, a zoning system, and a heat pump for cooling (and mild heating for now). It's as good as it gets now. Thanks to the team for their diligence and attention to detail.
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave us a 5 star review Adrian! We are grateful that you chose our small family run business to complete this installation for you. It is unfortunate that the original furnaces were put in poorly but we were happy we could make things right for you! We are so happy to hear that you are impressed with how neat and tidy our installation work is. We take great pride in not only having equipment work correctly but also look nice as well. Attention to detail is very important to our crew also. Thank you again for your support of our small family run business. We greatly appreciate it and look forward to seeing you at your yearly maintenance appoitments!
Great experience with Distinct. They provide excellent customer service and are very skilled in their trade. They have installed my Air Conditioner and provided a number of other services.
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave us a 5 star review Jeff! We are happy to hear that we provided you with excellent customer service. Thank you for being a loyal customer of ours over the years! We greatly appreciate it Jeff!
Jordan came to clean and do maintenance on my A/C. The work was professionally done. He gave a great service, explained everything to me and went far and beyond on the service offered. He even setup my thermostat. This is a great service for the price. Jordan knows exactly what he is doing. I would recommand Distinct to any of my friends.
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave Jordan a 5 star review! We are so blessed to have had Jordan as part of our team for many years now and are happy to hear that he was professional, offered great service, took the time to explain everything to you and went above and beyond your expectations! Your referral to your friends is the highest honour and we look forward to helping you out with all of your HVAC needs in the future! Have a wonderful weekend!
We decided it was time to install AC in the home, and Nate from Distinct came over and walked us thru the traditional AC units, or York's new Heat Pump. This being a quiet and a smaller unit not taking up a lot of real estate on the side of the house, sold us. Kristian, Aidan and Jaiden were the team to install, and were all very polite and knowledgable. They left a very clean worksite , and with a tutorial of how to work our new thermostat. Nate did a followup and sent us a checklist for maintenance of both our new heat pump and our York furnace. I will definitely will set up maintenance appointments with distinct to make sure our investment stays in tip top form . One can't go wrong with choosing Distinct and all the employees that Nate has working for him.
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave us a 5 star review Mary! We have enjoyed having you as a customer for the past 14 years and we appreciate your continued support over the years! We are so happy to hear that you have been happy with Ed performing your yearly maintenance over the years. We are very lucky to have had Ed as part of our team for many years now and it's always nice to hear when our customers appreciate his customer service, friendly personality and thorough inspection on your furnace and humidifier. Thank you again for your continued support of our small company over the years, we greatly appreciate!
We had the fan on our Furnace/ AC break down Monday night in late June. I was referred to Distinct Heating and Cooling by a competitor, as the competitor was not an authorized York dealer.

I called Erin at Distinct around 9:30 AM Working with Erin was quick and straightforward and and she scheduled Aidan to come out between 2-3 PM that same day. I was thrilled to be able to secure a same-day appointment as the weather was starting to get hot.
I received a text about 30 minutes before Aidan's arrival and he arrived right on time. After assessing the issue, he determined that the furnace's ECM blower motor needed to be replaced and that he would need to go get the part. This was about 4 PM and I expected that Aidan would have to come back the next day to finish the job. However, that was not the case. Aidan quickly confirmed his supplier had the right motor in stock, drove across the city in rush hour traffic and then returned and finished the repair, which took him until about 6:30 that evening.

While we were charged the agreed up cost of the service call, we were not charged overtime or anything else for the extra time. I am extremely pleased with the quality of the service we received.

Great job Erin and Aidan!! We have already booked our next scheduled maintenance call with Distinct Heating and Cooling.
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave us such an amazing 5 star review Jeff! We are so happy that we were able to help you out in your time of need! I was happy to have taken your call that morning and arrange for a time for Aidan to come by the same day and help diagnose your issue. We are also happy to hear that you appreciate our dispatch notifications that allows you to see who you are opening your door to as well as a better idea of an arrival time. We are very lucky to have great connections with different parts stores so that we can address issues and typically have those issues corrected in the same day (as long as parts are readily available and not out of stock). We try our best to have competitive rates for our customers while still making sure we will be in business for many many years so we can continue to provide our customers with the top notch customer service they deserve! Again thank you so much for your kind words and your support of our small family run business! I will make sure that Aidan see's this as well and we look forward to seeing you at your regular maintenance appointment! Many thanks, Erin Oberding
Very friendly knowledgeable technician. Was able to answer all my questions.
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave us a 5 star review Doug! We will make sure that Ed see's your kind words. Have a wonderful summer!
Distinct knows what they are doing, they are honest and nice!

Keep up the great work!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the 5 star review Cliff! We really appreciate you taking the time to leave us such a kind review! Have a wonderful day!
I very recently had some HVAC work done by Distinct at my home and I am was very impressed by not only the quality of the equipment that was installed, but by the quality of work that was done, from the initial visit by Nate for the estimate, along with a VERY detailed and thorough run through of the equipment that would be installed and the level of workmanship one can expect from Distinct, to the very high quality of work done on the installation by Nate's crew, Kristian and Jaden. A++ work, fellas!

If quality of workmanship is a priority for anyone looking at getting similar work done, then look no further than Distinct.

My scope of work included the replacement of a 20+ year old mid-efficient gas furnace with a high-efficient modulating York gas furnace along with a York air-source heat pump. We had never had AC at our house before and I was intrigued by the concept of a cold climate rated heat pump, not only being able to reduce our carbon footprint, but also perhaps leveraging cheaper electricity rates to heat our home during cooler weather with the ASHP, and cool our home during the summer months.

Thank you Distinct for all of the great work! Look forward to working with you again in the future!

Cheers!
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a kind review Nick and for trusting us to do this installation for you! We are so happy to hear that you have been impressed with the quality of the equipment that we installed as well as the quality of work that we did for you. Nate likes to do the initial quote appointments himself still after all these years as he enjoys meeting with our customers in person so he can answer any questions you might have as well as make sure that each and every customer understands exactly what we are installing and how everything works so our customers are comfortable with their purchase. We are so happy to hear that you were happy with our installation crew! We are very lucky to have them as part of our Distinct family! Heat pumps have come a long way, especially for cold climates! We hope that you will be happy with all of your new equipment and thank you again for choosing our small family run business to complete this installation for you! We look forward to seeing you every year for your regular maintenances!
Technician Ed has been servicing our furnace for years. Always polite and efficient
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave Ed a 5 star review! We are happy to hear he is always polite and effecient! Thank you for being a loyal customer of ours, we greatly appreciate!
Kristian and Jaden did a great job installing our new heat pump and high efficiency modulating furnace. Very courteous and professional, and a nice, clean install inside and out. They also integrated the new condensate drains with existing condensate and humidifier drains, to a new single outflow pipe to the floor drain.
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave us a 5 star review!

We always love to hear that our staff was courteous, professional and completed a nice and clean installation inside and out for our customers. Thank you for choosing our small family run business and we hope you enjoy your new equipment and have a wonderful summer!
This is the best company we have ever used for our furnace and AC. They replaced our furnace and trained us on the new thermostat. The place is even cleaner now than it was before they came. Kristian and Jordan were here alone most of the day and we had no concerns. Everyone that works with Distinct is trustworthy, professional and REALLY REALLY well trained. I recommend them to everyone I know.
Response from the owner:Hello Mr. Graffle, thank you so much for the 5-star review rating. We know how busy people are and it does mean a lot to us that you took the time to do this for us. Please call or email our office anytime if you find you should need any further assistance with your HVAC needs!

Nate is very technical and serious about the furnace he works with and his company. Ed who came today took time to explain fan functions and air filters.
Attention to detail. The employees that we have in our home are friendly and very professional. Very easy to talk to and knowledgeable.
Distinct Heating & Cooling installed a new humidifier for me recently and their service was top quality and very professional. When booking the appointment I was informed about how long the appointment would take and on the day of installation they were very respectful of my time commitments.

Ed did our install for us he was prompt, professional and willing to answer all my questions and gave us some helpful tips as we plan to add A/C and dealing with an older furnace. He took the time to ensure parts were replaced and that the finished installation was tidy. His attention to detail is greatly appreciated.

I highly recommend Distinct Heating & Cooling Ltd.
Prompt service by knowledgeable technicians.
I had been having problems with my York furnace this past weekend. I sent a message to Distinct Heating and Cooling threw their website on Sunday and first thing Monday morning Laurie called me, just before she did my furnace stopped working again. She got me a appointment right away, my furnace guy (Landon?) was so nice and explained everything along the way. Thankfully it was all under warranty. With such great prompt service, you have a customer for life. Thank you

Our Reviews

Distinct Heating & Cooling favicon.

“Aidan gave us excellent service on a cold early Boxing Day morning. He diagnosed the problem, grabbed the part from his van, performed the procedure, and gave us an overall health report in about 90 minutes. We were able to pay by e-transfer and went on with our Christmas activities. Thank you so much.”
