Replaced a very old heating fuel furnace that was at it's "end of life" with a new gas furnace…read more Received a quote from Angelo less than 3 hours from his visit. Becky at the office, answered a few questions and altered our order to include a programmable thermostat with no problems. Sent updated information, and confirmed the install twice, at time of order, and again the day before. Their friendly crew were on time, paid attention to details, kept me informed as the install was happening, answered all questions. They double and triple checked the install. Checked the registers. Insured the gas stove was operating fine before wrapping things up, as the gas was shut off to run a new gas line. Removed the fuel line, shut off the fuel from the old tank and capped it as well. Ran through the thermostat settings. Cleaned up everything and used drop cloths. Place heats quickly, fan is much quieter and can actually be set to lower speeds if desired. The programmable thermostat helps reduce heating costs. So far, I am quite pleased and toasty warm. If I don't update this review, the furnace if working fine. ;)

We knew we needed a new furnace when we bought our house a few months ago and also wanted to add a…read moreheat pump. We did some research and got 3 quotes from local companies that all have very good reputations. We decided to go with Servicexcel even though their quote was about $800 more than the others. The main reason we went with Servicexel is that they quoted on higher quality equipment and their system designer took the time to explain why, in plain simple language. Plus the equipment they quoted on have a better and longer warranty. After they provided the quote, they were very quick to answer all our questions. The ladies that answer the phones were very knowledgeable and prompt to help however they could. They also took the extra step to arrange for the rebates that we qualified for. Once they started to do the install, the technicians both were very knowledgeable and able to explain what they were doing and were very efficient. It was not the easiest install (due to the cramped and awkward furnace room and crawlspace), but these two technicians took it all and made it look much easier than I thought it would be. During the install they were very good at keeping the area clean and went through the whole area afterwards to vacuum up and make sure everything was back to normal. I would highly recommend Servicexcel and their dedicated employees to anyone that needs any type of HVAC service or replacement.

If we could give more than 5 stars, we would! ProTemp Control is owned by James Duffy, and he…read morerecently installed the dual fuel gas furnace and heat pump in our home (we used the Fortis BC rebate program). First of all, his quote came in approx $2000 below the next nearest quote (he installed Carrier products, so very well rated and established). We actually got six different quotes, and his was by far the best. Second, even though he works on his own, he is the most dedicated and conscientious tradesman we have ever dealt with! He took approx a week remove our old furnace; replace duct work; install the new heat pump and pad; and change out our existing thermostat. Third, he explained everything (numerous times!) in layman's language, and made everything easy to understand. He was so patient and approachable. He kept us up to date on exactly he was doing every single day, and gave us options where they were available. If you have any HVAC, heating, air conditioning, furnace, fireplace, or other "heat control" questions or concerns, make sure you get a quote or talk to James at ProTemp Control. We can't recommend him enough! Thank you James!

A new motor was installed in Jan 2022. When another matter of concern later arose, Bryans also went out to check. Then in Sep 2022, I needed a condensate pump for my furnace which is at least 17 years old. A new pump was installed in 2 days, and the job done by Paul took only 1/2 hour. It is a great blessing to know that Bryans' entire staff live and work by such an excellent code of service. I can close my eyes and know that they will be dependable and trustworthy. God bless everyone at Bryans Mechanical. A million thanks !!! Joy L - Nanaimo BC

The following review is my personal opinion…read more Long story short: I ordered a $15K heat pump system. It was installed well but not without me having to ask for every single thing over and over. Most importantly, in their hurry to make a sale, The Comfort Group have made a mess of my $4K BC Hydro rebate, of which I am currently still out $2,500. Now, they're stonewalling me and I have gotten a lawyer involved. I don't recommend this company to any home owners. On August 8, 2025, advisor Scott Sawicki came to do a walkthrough of the house. He seemed straightforward and direct and drove a hard sale. Because he promised to take $500 off the sale price (if I book the installation as soon as possible) and to arrange a $4,000 BC Hydro rebate, I considered my options and signed for the $15,456 system. This was a significant expense that I put on my credit card and transfered to the line of credit that I keep for these types of large house projects. This was also when the trouble began. Communication became extremely sparse and difficult almost as soon as I signed on the line that is dotted: I had a simple question about warranty registration and another about brown Fortress (protective sheathing for the pipes and cables), but it was difficult to get any specifics from Scott and I had to call the office. Eventually, I got word about the installation that then took place on August 11. The installers were very hardworking and professional, but the one day wasn't enough and the installation had to continue on August 12. It took weeks for the remaining Fortress pieces to be put on. But this was only half the trouble. A few days after the installation, when I spoke with Scott on the phone, he told me that he's made a mistake on the calculations for my $4,000 BC Hydro rebate and that he'd take care of it--with The Comfort Group either installing another unit or reimbursing me. When we spoke a few days after this, I became distressed to learn that Scott went ahead and submitted the rebate application without my involvement or consent (our previous agreement was that he's give me the calculations and I'd send in the forms). In retrospect, it's obvious that Scott knew that he made a mistake (he told me something wishy-washy about the rules for BC Hydro rebates changing--if he's a professional, he should've known about this in advance) and then tried to cover for it. Sure enough, by September 15, BC Hydro have told me that they needed a home visit. This is when I knew that I've been screwed over. I asked Scott to call me--no response. I called him; he said everything would be fine. I didn't believe him, so I tried to get in touch with sales manager Brittany Froese, who also fed me the same line and said that The Comfort Group would be happy to work with me or even reimburse me. They were both wrong, and now they began to avoid responsibility. By October 7, I got a letter from BC Hydro stating I would be getting only $1,500 back out of the $4,000. I was now $2,500 out. On October 8, Brittany wrote to me that she was working on my Fortis (?!) rebate. I wrote back, explaining that the rebate was with BC Hydro. She responded with "Rest assured either way we will get something sorted for you. Chat soon!" I followed up with Brittany on October 14 but received no response. On October 20, I wrote to Brittany and told her that I've already received the $1,500 rebate and was now under undue hardship due to the missing $2,500 which I need to place back on my line of credit. I set a boundary that, if I do not hear back by October 24, I would have to contact a lawyer. It is now October 24, and I have proceeded as stated. As you can see, The Comfort Group doesn't care about its customers. They will say anything just to make a quick profit. I recommend steering clear. Caveat emptor.
