Who We Are

The Furnace Repair Team Markham Homeowners Actually Trust

Leonard HVAC grew one honest service call at a time in communities like Markham. We invest in ongoing training so our techs recognize a failing capacitor, a cracked heat exchanger, or a refrigerant leak before it turns into an emergency.

We're not the biggest name in Markham — we're the crew that answers the phone at 2am when your furnace quits in the middle of a cold snap. Every job we run is backed by full liability coverage and current state licensing, and we keep that documentation available on request for every job, big or small.

We know which neighborhoods run on older ductwork and which subdivisions were built with newer high-efficiency systems. That local knowledge shapes how we diagnose problems — it's the difference between a tech who's guessing and a tech who's seen your exact situation a hundred times before.

Trust in this industry gets eroded fast, and it takes real consistency to earn it back. That's the gap we built Leonard HVAC to close. We track arrival windows, callback rates, and repeat-issue complaints internally so problems get caught before they become patterns, because a customer who trusts us once tends to call us again — and Markham is a small enough community that reputation travels fast.

When you call +1-866-805-8548, you're talking to someone who understands the local permitting process, the common equipment brands installed in Markham homes, and realistic scheduling given local demand. Our warranty and service history records stay attached to your address, so any future technician who visits already has the full picture.

Core Furnace Repair Services

From Emergency Repairs To Full Installs

We cover the full range of heating, cooling, and air quality work Markham properties actually need.

24/7

Same-Day Emergency Dispatch

Breakdowns rarely happen at a convenient time, which is exactly why our emergency line runs 24 hours a day. Our Markham dispatch team prioritizes no-heat and no-cooling calls so a technician is diagnosing your system as fast as physically possible.

  • Same-day diagnostic and repair
  • Fully stocked trucks for common failures
  • Transparent emergency pricing before work begins

We keep the truck stocked with the parts that fail most often on the equipment common to Markham homes, which is exactly why most repairs don't require a return visit.

New System Installs & Full Replacements

If your unit is past its expected service life, running loud, or spiking your utility bill, a replacement conversation is worth having. We walk Markham homeowners through load calculations so the new system is sized correctly for the actual square footage before a single piece of equipment gets ordered.

  • Heat pump and hybrid system installs
  • Smart thermostat setup and integration
  • Clean, respectful installation crews

Most installs in Markham are completed in a single day, and we walk you through the new thermostat and any app controls before we leave.

Business

Commercial Furnace Repair Service

Commercial equipment operates differently than a residential unit, and it needs technicians who actually understand rooftop packages and multi-zone systems. Our commercial division services rooftop units and package systems across Markham, with priority response for facilities that can't afford downtime.

  • Commercial refrigeration-adjacent HVAC support
  • Energy efficiency assessments for older buildings
  • Priority response tiers for commercial accounts

Our commercial techs are trained to work around your customers and staff, scheduling noisy or disruptive work outside peak hours whenever possible.

Maintenance

Seasonal Tune-Ups & Indoor Air Quality

Most emergency breakdowns start as a small, ignorable warning sign months earlier. Beyond standard tune-ups, we also handle duct cleaning and sealing to stop conditioned air from leaking into attics and crawlspaces for Markham households that want more than just temperature control.

  • Filter, coil, and refrigerant level checks
  • Duct sealing and cleaning
  • Annual maintenance plans with priority scheduling

Maintenance plan members in Markham get scheduling reminders automatically, so tune-ups don't fall through the cracks during a busy season.

Our Guarantee

What Happens If Something's Not Right

Guarantees only mean something if a company actually honors them, so here's exactly what ours covers.

Repairs That Are Guaranteed

Details vary by job type and are always shared upfront, never buried in fine print.

Price Match Commitment

Emergency dispatch never comes with a hidden surcharge sprung on you after the fact.

Not Finished Until You Say So

Our office follows up after major repairs and installs to confirm everything is holding.

Don't Wait Until It Fails

How To Tell If Your System Is About To Fail

Most breakdowns don't happen without warning — they announce themselves for weeks before the system actually quits.

Unusual Noises

Rattling during startup often means a component has worked itself loose and needs tightening before it causes real damage.

Airflow That's Dropped Off

Weak airflow from the vents often traces back to a clogged filter, a failing blower motor, or leaking ductwork.

Bills Creeping Up Month Over Month

A system working harder than it should to hit the same temperature shows up directly on your utility bill.

Frequent On-Off Cycling

Short cycling puts extra wear on the compressor and shortens the system's overall lifespan.

Odors Coming From The Vents

A musty smell often points to mold or moisture buildup somewhere in the ductwork.

Repeat Breakdowns On The Same System

If you're calling about the same problem every few months, the underlying cause likely hasn't been fully addressed.

Common Causes

The Most Common Causes Behind Our Service Calls

Understanding what typically fails helps homeowners know what to watch for and when a repair call is worth making before things get worse.

Dirty or Clogged FiltersA filter left too long forces the system to work harder and shortens component lifespan
Low Refrigerant ChargeLeaks often develop slowly at joints or coils and go unnoticed until performance drops noticeably
Worn Start ComponentsOften shows up as clicking sounds or a system that hums but doesn't turn on
Miscalibrated ControlsA thermostat that's lost calibration or has a wiring fault can make an otherwise healthy system seem broken
Seasonal Tips

Seasonal Furnace Repair Tips for Markham Homeowners

Markham's seasonal swings put real stress on a system that isn't maintained regularly. Before the heaviest cooling months hit, it's worth having the refrigerant charge checked, the condenser coils cleaned, and the filter replaced — all of which directly affect how hard the compressor has to work.

Setting a programmable or smart thermostat to a consistent schedule reduces the number of times the system has to work hard to catch up to a big temperature swing. None of this replaces a professional tune-up, but it does reduce the wear that leads to premature breakdowns between visits.

No Brand Restrictions

Brands & Equipment We Work On in Markham

Whether your Markham home has a traditional split system, a ductless mini-split, a heat pump, or a hybrid dual-fuel setup, our crews are equipped to diagnose and repair it. If your system was installed by a different company entirely, that's not a problem — we service equipment regardless of who originally put it in, and we'll pull the model and serial information to confirm parts compatibility before any repair begins.

What's your typical response time in Markham?

Do you offer 24/7 emergency repair?

Our emergency line runs 24 hours a day, including nights, weekends, and holidays.

Do you carry insurance for work done in my home?

We maintain current credentials because it protects both our customers and our team.

When does a repair stop making sense?

Our technicians walk you through the actual numbers — repair cost versus remaining system life versus new equipment efficiency — before making a recommendation.

Do you offer maintenance plans in Markham?

Plan members typically see fewer surprise breakdowns because small issues get caught during routine visits.

What areas around Markham do you serve?

If you're unsure whether your address falls in our service area, a quick call to +1-866-805-8548 will confirm it.

Can you service both residential and commercial systems?

Yes, we run separate residential and commercial divisions, both fully licensed and equipped for their respective equipment.

What brands and system types do you work on?

Our technicians are trained across the major residential and commercial equipment lines, not limited to a single manufacturer.

Do you offer financing for new system installations?

We understand a full system replacement is a significant expense, which is why flexible payment options exist.

How often should I schedule maintenance in Markham?

Systems that run harder due to heavy year-round use may benefit from more frequent check-ins.

Is there anything I can check myself before you arrive?

Check that the thermostat has power and the batteries aren't dead, and check your breaker panel for a tripped switch before calling.

Will an emergency call cost more?

We'd rather quote it honestly on the phone than have you feel ambushed by the bill.

How long should I expect the visit to take?

More involved repairs, like a coil replacement or a refrigerant leak repair, take longer and the tech will give you a realistic estimate before starting.

Is my presence required during the appointment?

For most residential visits, yes, an adult should be present to grant access and approve any quoted work.
