HVAC DiagramThe technology behind home and office climate control and ventilation is known as HVAC. This stands for Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning. HVAC companies, like Mckinnon Heating Cooling install and repair HVAC systems and components in order to provide homeowners and offices with total comfort.

In the last few years, new systems have been developed that rely more heavily on smart controls.  HVAC equipment with smart controls are automated and self-directing because of the presence of onboard computers that control the system operation based on pre-set parameters.

These modern systems represent tremendous breakthroughs in the field of energy efficiency. They have come just at a time when consumers need them the most. With the ever-soaring cost of heating, ventilating and air-conditioning our homes and offices, these new products can help reduce those costs.

Newer systems are not only cost-efficient; they often are more compact that their conventional counterparts and return usable square footage to the property owner. The new efficiencies also make for more environment-friendly consumption of electricity and natural gas.

Mckinnon Heating Cooling, in Toronto, has kept up with these technological advances. We got our start long before most of the new technologies existed, 1934 to be exact. Mckinnon maintains its long tradition of leading the field by introducing cutting edge, state-of-the-art systems, as soon as they are proven effective and safe.

Tackling new technologies is nothing new for a company that started out delivering coal door-to-door. We led the way when the use of coal gave way to heating oil in the 1940’s and a decade later when air conditioning came on the scene.

In the 1970’s, Mckinnon was instrumental in helping consumers change their furnace systems from heating oil to natural gas. When indoor air quality (IAQ) became a public issue in the 1990’s, Mckinnon began providing HEPA filtration and other IAQ systems. Homes and offices have benefited with much cleaner air, and lower incidences of respiratory ailments caused by poor air quality and circulation.

In recent decades, Mckinnon has continued its long legacy of helping Toronto residents switch over to the high-energy efficiency technologies of today and tomorrow.

In addition to our unmatched legacy in the realm of Toronto HVAC, Mckinnon has also been a champion for social responsibility. Mckinnon supports The Design Exchange, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada and countless social service groups and local community sports teams.

That’s why Mckinnon Heating Cooling is the first name that our clients think of when someone mentions Toronto HVAC.
