Clean/Replace Your Filters:

Open the Unit: Lift the front panel of the indoor unit.
Remove the Filter: Grip the tab on the end of the filter, push it up slightly, then pull it towards yourself. Pull down to extract the filter(s) behind the front panel.
Detach Air Freshening Filter (if applicable): Unclip the small air freshening filter from the larger filter.
Clean the Air Freshening Filter: Use a hand-held vacuum to remove dust and debris.
Wash the Main Filter: Clean the large air filter with warm, soapy water (mild dish soap works best).
Rinse and Dry: Rinse the back of the filter with fresh water, shake off excess water, and dry in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Reassemble: Once dry, re-clip the air freshening filter to the larger filter.
Reinstall the Filter: Slide the filter back into the indoor unit.
Close the Panel: Secure the front panel of the indoor unit.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  At last, a company whose slogan is not an elaborate work of fiction.

Our furnace's condensate pump had given up the ghost, presumably deciding that employment in the Canadian winter was no longer worth the effort. Phil arrived promptly, was courteous and knowledgeable, and fixed the problem with impressive efficiency. No theatrical sighing, no mysterious technical jargon designed to frighten the homeowner into bankruptcy, and no invoice comparible with the national debt of the United States of America.

Better still, Phil inspected the entire HVAC setup, measured the emissions, and offered sensible recommendations without attempting to sell me half the contents of a hardware store. Refreshingly honest, thoroughly professional, and blessedly free of bull. One suspects the moose on the logo personally vets the staff.

Even Baldrick could probably understand this level of service, although I wouldn't trust him to measure emissions without accidentally testing the exhaust from his own trousers.

Five stars. Phil knows his business, ABLE delivers on its promise, and the only bull in sight is the sort that gets trampled by a moose. Highly recommended!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  Able Air did a great job in getting my Lennox HX warranty approved, get the part delivered quickly and do the replacement of HX and the testing very quickly. I should say all within a week. Chris from their team was great at explanation and processing the warranty whereas Phil the HVAC tech who came to do the actual job also did a great job and explained me everything. Our HX is all new and the system just got its life extended rather than swapping to a new furnace. Definitely great team and was great to work with :)

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  Phil G did a great job cleaning our heater and AC. He also noticed that the outside pipe for our furnace wasn’t sealed properly and offered to fix it. Really happy with the service and appreciate him going the extra mile. Will definitely use Able HVAC again!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  This is the best company to work with, from a simple service call after hours to discovering I needed a new furnace, to having a consultation about all the products that would work and why they are the best for my house, to setting up and asking questions to the wonderful ladies in the office, to a clean and friendly install, Able Air and Heating is the place to go!! Shawn and Jamie did an amazing job installing and showing me everything and helped to set up my new thermostat as well. I couldn’t be more happier with spending my money here, especially to a local company!!! Thank you all!!!!
