Sometimes Less Isn't the Best

We are all familiar with the saying, "You get what you pay for" and this axiom couldn't be truer than when it comes to choosing a heating and air conditioning company.
If you're looking for superior quality, service and reliability, consider Rodman's Heating and Air Conditioning, a locally owned and operated business and Durham fixture since 1949.

"We have satisfied customers because we do what we say we are going to do, when we said we would do it, and at the price we quoted," says Kirk Dick of Rodman's. "We have a good reputation because we earned it by living up to our word and our customers' expectations, for over 50 years!" While part of Rodman's reputation is based on its superior service by licensed technicians, the other part is based on its loyalty and commitment to customers. This business treats people like family or old friends and not just another number.

As part of its commitment to delivering superior service to customers, Rodman's is well aware of homeowners' budget and environmental concerns. Rodman's is pleased to inform customers that homeowners with older operating systems can start saving money on their monthly electricity bill. How so? A new minimum efficiency standard has been put into effect (it has rose to 13 SEER from 10), and as of January 23, 2006 all newly manufactured heating and air conditioning equipment must comply with these standards.

If you own an older system that needs repair, or if it is just simply time to replace your system, purchasing a higher efficiency model will give you two advantages: 1. You'll start saving money on utility bills and, 2. You'll be able to make the switch at today's costs instead of tomorrow's. The exact amount that you will save on your monthly bill will, however, depend on the efficiency of your current system. For example, a 13 SEER efficiency delivers about 23 per cent energy savings compared to 10 SEER models, and about 8 per cent energy savings compared to 12 SEER models.

Rodman's draws from such well-respected manufacturers as Tempstar for its home installations, with Continental and Insta-flame fireplaces added to the mix.

My Beautiful Home, Special Edition

The dramatic increases in gas and hydro costs over the last year indicate that the time has come to review your whole approach to heating and air conditioning in your home.

Rodman's Heating & Air Conditioning has a reputation for its superior service because of its factory trained mechanics and technicians. They began installing oil furnaces, added gas heating units and later expanded their expertise to include air conditioning. Rodman's is fully licensed by all agencies governing the industry. Their loyal customers have nominated them year after year for "Best Heating and Air Conditioning Business" for the Reader's Choice Awards, which they have won twice in the last four years.

The company attributes its success to its individual focus on customer's needs by providing the most technologically advanced products on the market so that customers can maximize the return on their investment. They treat people like family and friends not as profit centres.

Rodman's has returned that affection back to the community with its support of several minor-league sports teams and its ongoing sponsorship of the Ajax Fall Festival and Ajax Home Week.

Choosing the right furnace or air conditioner for your home depends on several factors: The size and style of home, the direction it faces, the number and quality of windows as well as the amount of sunlight that comes through them, the amount of heat from lighting and appliances, the amount and quality of insulation and more. A Rodman's H.V.A.C. expert can evaluate all of these factors and recommend the best options at the best prices that will also be the most energy efficient. If you have never had your home evaluated this way, the increase in energy costs to effectively heat or cool your home make this an ideal analysis to have done.

Rodman's Heating & Air Conditioning is aligned with the top names and well-respected manufacturers such as Tempstar and Climette as well as Continental fireplaces. Improving the heating comfort of your home should require a combination of two-stage heating and a variable speed blower. These features help keep the air flowing to smooth out the hot and cool spots. The Tempstar Smart Comfort 80% and 90% furnaces both come in models that include these two important features as well as quiet operational motors and a sound-reducing double-wall door. Financing options on these amazing furnaces are also available from Tempstar along with superior heat exchanger limited warranties and a 5 year limited warranty on all functional parts. High efficiency units are vented to the outside using 2" or 3" ABS piping. Mid efficiency furnaces may require a chimney liner to line your existing chimney.

When you consider changing from oil to gas or updating a gas unit that is 20 years or older, give Rodman's the opportunity to give you a quote. You won't be disappointed. At the same time you should look into the new regulations affecting air conditioning coming in 2006 and regulations affecting freon gas (R22) in 2010. These may affect you, Call Rodman's!
