Get matched with a proYes. Gas furnace and appliance work requires a certified Alberta gasfitter. Heat pump refrigerant circuits need refrigeration-certified technicians.
Cold-climate models rated to −25°C or lower can cover most of the heating season when hybridized with a furnace for the coldest weeks.
Alberta does not currently offer an Ontario-style province-wide rebate. Check federal OHPA if you heat with oil, and ask your utility about any short-term efficiency pilots.
