Is it time to replace a 25-year-old furnace in McKenzie Lake?

Yes — furnaces over 20 years old are operating well past their expected lifespan and typically at much lower efficiency. Many original McKenzie Lake furnaces are mid-efficiency (80% AFUE) models. Upgrading to a 96%+ high-efficiency furnace can reduce gas bills by 15–25% while improving comfort and reliability. We offer 0% financing options.

Can you add AC to older McKenzie Lake homes that don't have it?

Absolutely. Many McKenzie Lake homes were built before central AC was standard in Calgary. We assess your existing ductwork, electrical panel, and home layout to recommend the right cooling solution. Most installations are completed in one day with minimal disruption.

Do you service all areas of McKenzie Lake and McKenzie Towne?

Yes, we service both McKenzie Lake and adjacent McKenzie Towne regularly. Whether you're on the lake, along McKenzie Lake Boulevard, or in the Towne Centre area, we provide same-day service with no extra travel fees.

Excellent experience with Ivan and his team, install on my AC unit was fast, like 4 hours! Guys were clean and courteous. I would 10/10 recommend them and use them for their other HVAC services!

The process was top notch through the whole process: 1) They answered the request for a quote quickly (I'm surprised when other companies called back 3-4 days later). They came the next day at the agreed upon time. 2) The quote was reasonable and about $50 less than others (tight market). 3) The installation was scheduled quickly, and done well the following week. 4) It appears as if the work was done professionally with an attention to detail. It's still too cold to see how everything works, but will update the review as needed. 4) Communication was prompt and helpful. I would recommend Ivan and Air Force Heating in the future.

We needed a new Air Conditioner. An appointment was promptly scheduled with Mike. For the installation, we received great service from Ivan and Dmytro for our new Armstrong A/C. All our questions were answered and they did a great job.

Had a really good experience with Air Force Heating and Air Conditioning. They installed a Gree heat pump for me and everything went smooth. Showed up on time, explained things in a simple way, no pressure or upselling. Install was clean and pretty quick, and the system is working great so far. Only thing is I wish they walked me through the thermostat a bit more, but overall still very satisfied. Would recommend.

Good experience with Air Force Heating and Air Conditioning overall. Had a Gree heat pump installed and Ivan, Dima and Rustam did the job. They showed up on time, were polite, and kept things clean during install. System is working good and you can feel the difference already. Only small thing is I had to ask a couple questions after they left to understand all the settings, but not a big deal. Solid service, would recommend.

I just had an air conditioning unit installed at home, and I couldn’t be more thrilled! The team was fantastic—super efficient and committed to quality at every step. What really impressed me was their honesty; they communicated everything clearly and set realistic expectations. I highly recommend them for anyone looking to enhance their comfort!

Ivan, Mike and the whole team were extremely professional and very friendly. I couldn’t be happier with my AC install. I will recommend them to all friends and family. Thanks Air Force!

About McKenzie Lake

McKenzie Lake is one of SE Calgary's most established lake communities, developed in the mid-1990s. The neighbourhood is centred around a private 32-acre lake that offers residents swimming, fishing, and non-motorized boating. The McKenzie Lake Beach Club and Community Association are the social heart of the neighbourhood, hosting family-friendly events year-round. Located south of 130th Avenue SE and west of 52nd Street, the community features mature trees, winding streets, and a strong sense of community identity. The adjacent McKenzie Towne, with its New England-inspired Town Centre, provides shopping, dining, and services within walking distance.

Local HVAC Considerations

As one of SE Calgary's older communities, most McKenzie Lake homes were built between 1993 and 2005 — meaning many original furnaces are 20–30+ years old and well past their expected lifespan. We see a high volume of furnace replacement calls from McKenzie Lake, especially for older mid-efficiency models that no longer meet current energy standards. The neighbourhood's mature landscaping provides good wind shelter, but older windows and insulation in original-construction homes can create drafts that strain heating systems. Many homeowners are also adding air conditioning for the first time, as the homes were not originally built with AC.
