Helpful and Quick.

Reliance has always been helpful and quick. I just had a new furnace and air conditioner installed in Wasaga Beach, and Rick, Steve & Kyle were great!

Outstanding Service.

Outstanding service!! The Home Comfort Advisor (Jeff), the HVAC Service Manager (Khyle) and the Technical Expert (Josh) who assisted with our air conditioner/furnace, were all incredibly knoweldgeable, courteous and helpful in providing solutions to our problem. We are very happy to be Reliance Yanch customers!

Never Had Bad Service.

Reliance always sends well trained repair people in a timely manner. Tom was at our house for almost 3 hours trying to diagnose our air conditioner problem and unfortunately the final answer was that it is un-repairable. He was very quick to set us up with an appointment with the sales team the next day. I have never had bad service with Reliance and they treat their customers like they really matter.

"I have been a Reliance customer for 30 years. I recently moved to Midland to a home with a new furnace. After several months here, I felt it was time to have the furnace checked and so naturally called Reliance. Steve came at the appointed hour, courteously tolerated my barking dog and gave me service far greater than the 12 point check. He explained all sorts of things to me, from how and when to change the filter, to the benefits of duct cleaning, continuous fan usage, air conditioning, an ongoing maintenance plan and appropriate care of the thermostat. If you live in this area, ask for Steve - he's the best!" Bev - Barrie

"Our furnace was making a loud sound so Steve Bowden came to service it and was very helpful. Would recommend this company to anyone been with them for years. Called last night and someone came by 7am the next day." Lisa - Barrie

"I called Reliance this morning, April 20th, 2017 to request my yearly maintenance on my Reliance rented air conditioner. Tom Hotchkiss, the HVAC technician arrived later in the morning of April 20th. He did an excellent job, and was patient answering questions and showing us what he was doing step by step. He completed the 21 point precision tune up, and cleaned and hosed down the air conditioning unit. Very thorough, very pleasant individual. I highly recommend Reliance, and in particular, Tom Hotchkiss" - Barrie
