    Tune-ups from $99

    Multi-point inspection of every safety, efficiency, and wear component on your furnace or AC.

    Warranty protected

    Manufacturer warranties require documented annual maintenance — we keep yours valid.

    Lower energy bills

    A clean, tuned system uses up to 15% less energy than a neglected one.

    What's included in a residential HVAC maintenance visit

    Furnace tune-ups (recommended every fall) include a full safety inspection: heat exchanger check for cracks, gas pressure verification, burner cleaning, blower motor service, ignition and flame sensor cleaning, thermostat calibration, electrical connection check, and filter replacement. We also test combustion to confirm safe carbon monoxide levels.

    AC tune-ups (recommended every spring) include refrigerant level check, condenser coil cleaning, evaporator coil inspection, electrical safety check, blower and capacitor test, condensate drain clearing, and a full performance reading to confirm the system is hitting its rated efficiency.

    Why annual maintenance pays for itself

    Skipping annual service is the #1 reason Calgary furnaces fail in the middle of January. Dust, soot, and small wear issues compound quietly all year — until a –25 °C cold snap pushes the system past its limits. A $99 tune-up catches those issues during business hours, instead of becoming a $1,200 emergency repair on Christmas Eve.

    Beyond preventing breakdowns, regular maintenance keeps your system running at its rated efficiency. A neglected furnace or AC can lose 5–15% of its efficiency per year through dirty coils, clogged burners, and worn components — that's hundreds of dollars in extra utility bills annually for the average Calgary home.

    Maintenance plans

    We offer pay-as-you-go tune-ups starting at $99 per system, plus annual Comfort Plans that bundle your spring AC and fall furnace tune-ups, priority emergency dispatch, and discounts on any repairs. Plans are designed for both single-system and full furnace + AC homes.

    Installers were efficient, clean and on time. No surprises! Only one little surprise when they found our AC (already installed) was leaking. We would of never known if it wasn't for them. They took the time to repair it right away. Much appreciated!

    A level above the rest! Ivan and his crew did a fantastic job moving our A/C unit and installing a heating system in our garage. They were completely on time, on budget, and very reasonably priced. What really stood out was the great respect they showed for our home and yard. They used drop cloths inside and tarps outside, taking extra care to minimize the mess and clean up after themselves completely. We’ve used other Plumbing & HVAC contractors in the past who were just okay, but Air Force's service quality was a level above all of them. Highly recommend!

    Frequently asked questions

    How often should I service my residential HVAC system?

    Furnace once per year in early fall (before the heating season), AC once per year in spring (before the cooling season). Some manufacturers require annual service to keep the warranty valid.

    How much does a residential HVAC tune-up cost?

    Furnace and AC tune-ups start at $99 per system. Combined furnace + AC tune-ups, and annual Comfort Plans, are available at a bundled rate.

    Will maintenance really lower my energy bills?

    Yes. A clean, properly tuned furnace and AC use up to 15% less energy than neglected systems. Most Calgary homeowners save more on utility bills than the tune-up costs.

    Do I need maintenance if my system is brand new?

    Yes — most manufacturers require documented annual maintenance to keep the 10-year parts warranty valid. Skipping service can void your warranty even on a 2-year-old furnace.

    What's the best time to book a tune-up?

    Book your furnace tune-up in September or early October, and your AC tune-up in April or May. Booking off-season also unlocks priority scheduling and the best availability.
