J.P. Lo Bianco in Toronto

After doing quite a bit of research and having several quotes from smaller independent contractors and two big ones (Reliance and Enercare/Direct Energy) I proceeded with Aire One for a new Furnace, Air Conditioner, and Humidifier, up grading from a 15 year old mid-efficiency furnace. This also included some duck work (boot & drop) which required upgrading. The installation was completed on January 2/2016 for my house which is approx. 3000 sq.ft. in North York. I went with the Carrier Performance model (variable-speed, two-stage high efficiency furnace model). The sales consultant (P.J. Sands) was honest, knowledgeable, and fair. He gave me several options from the top end models to the low end ones, thoroughly explaining all of the differences. The pricing was very competitive and I did not feel the sales pressure to sign immediately like I did with the other quotes. In fact I moved forward 2 weeks later and P.J. was more than happy to come back to my home to complete the paper work. He also explained the energy rebate programs that are currently available (all in $650 rebate I will receive). Ultimately I went with Aire One because of my trust with P.J. through the sales process and the comfort of going with a mid-large size contractor like Aire One who was still very competitive on price. The difference was approx. $2,000 for the exact same systems with Reliance & Enercare. Second, the installation was top notch. The two installers (Nazir & Hamid) gave me several options for the direct furnace vents on my outside wall (as I was concerned about the aesthetics) taking code requirements into account, as well as options for the new furnace location given the unique situation I had in my furnace room. Most importantly they listened to my concerns, gave me options, and addressed them. I watched them quite closely and these guys new what they were doing, experienced & professional. After the installation, they tested and explained how my new system worked, as well as a thorough clean-up. 11 days in and me and my family have already noticed the difference the new furnace & humidifier is making. I can’t comment on the air conditioner unit yet given it is January, but will post again in the spring when I use it for the first time however I don’t expect any issues given the professional installation. I would definitely refer Aire One to family & friends!
