Making the Switch

OIL IS OUT, SAVINGS ARE IN!

Do you have an oil-fired forced air system? Are you looking to move to something more energy effecient and affordable?

Making the switch from oil just got a whole lot easier!
It’s time for a Daikin Central Air System from J.S.

This modern advancement of the traditional heat pump keeps your whole home comfortable using your existing duct work (or we install new ductwork). This system operates from an invertor heat pump unit which distributes warm or cold air throughout your house using your existing ductwork and vents.

WHY MAKE THE SWITCH?

1. No more oil – save thousands on oil costs and achieve a more consistent energy bill.

2. More comfort – A Central Air System from Daikin not only heats your home more efficiently, but also provides air conditioning to all of your rooms with venting as well.

3. Programs and Incentives – From the current provincial grants and federal rebates to the brand new Home Heating Loan Program, It has never been easier to make your home more efficient and support the planet.
