Furnace installation & replacement in Port Perry, ON
Oshawa-based, owner-operated, and here to help: providing proper sizing, high-efficiency units, and permits handled when required.
Furnace installation by someone who actually knows Port Perry
Port Perry's mix of older Victorian-era homes, newer builds, and rural Scugog Township properties means furnace installations here require more local knowledge than a standard job. Many rural properties run propane; some older homes are converting from oil. Zack has been installing furnaces in Port Perry and Scugog Township for years and knows what each property type needs.
When you call HVAC Zack, you get Zack. No dispatchers, no rotating crews. He sizes the unit, handles permits when required, does the install, and runs the final test himself — and he's been doing it across Port Perry and Durham Region for over 15 years.
Proper sizing
An oversized furnace short-cycles and wears out fast. An undersized one never keeps up. We calculate your home's actual heat load before recommending a unit.
Permits handled
A permit is required in some cases depending on the scope of work. We assess whether one is needed and handle everything if it is — you don't have to think about it.
Single-day install
Most furnace replacements are completed in a single day. Old unit removed, new unit installed, tested, and commissioned before we leave.
Transparent pricing
You get a clear quote before anything starts. No surprise line items, no upselling to a unit bigger than your home needs.
What we install
Durham Region winters are serious. The right system depends on your home's size, age, and existing venting. Here's what we carry:
High-efficiency gas furnace (95–98% AFUE)
Required for all new gas furnace installations in Canada. Significantly lower operating costs — and we confirm your venting is compatible before quoting.
Furnace + heat pump hybrid
Pairs a gas furnace with a heat pump. The heat pump handles most heating; the furnace kicks in on the coldest days. Eligible for Ontario HRS rebates.
Propane furnace
For Port Perry properties not connected to natural gas. Same high-efficiency options, properly configured for propane supply and venting.
Replacement of oil or older systems
Converting from oil or an aging low-efficiency unit? We handle the full switchover including new venting, gas line connection, and disposal of the old system.
What does a new furnace cost in Port Perry?
Costs vary based on efficiency rating, home size, and whether new venting is required. Typical installed ranges for Port Perry homes:
High-efficiency gas furnace (95–98% AFUE): $4,000 – $8,000
Hybrid system (furnace + heat pump): $7,500 – $18,000 — heat pump portion eligible for Ontario HRS rebate up to $7,500
The most accurate number comes from a free in-home quote — we need to see your existing setup to price it properly.

Permit pulled, install scheduled
If a permit is required, we handle the application before the job starts. Most installations are booked within a few days of the quote.
Old unit removed, new unit installed
Clean, careful work. Most replacements are completed in a single day. The old unit is hauled away and disposed of responsibly.
Testing, commissioning & walkthrough
We run the system through a full heating cycle, verify all safety controls, check for gas issues, and walk you through the new unit before we leave.

A note from Zack

Port Perry is a unique market. The homes near the lake and historic core are older and often need more work as part of a replacement — venting upgrades, ductwork adjustments, sometimes a propane to gas conversion.
The newer builds on the edge of town are more straightforward. Either way I'll size the system properly for what your home actually needs and do the job right. Call me and we'll talk it through.
