54 Years In Calgary“We built our reputation by giving honest answers when homeowners need them most.”
George founded Instant Plumbing & Heating in 1972 with one foundational philosophy: never replace what can be properly repaired, and never repair what is truly unsafe or worn out. Every technician we train follows the exact same standard: diagnose accurately, explain clearly, and give the homeowner the facts without sales pressure.

Should You Repair or Replace Your Furnace?
We never push new equipment if a simple repair is safe and sensible. Use this quick guide:
When a Repair Makes Sense
- •Furnace is under 12-15 years old
- •Repair cost is under 30% of a new furnace price
- •Energy bills have remained steady throughout winter
- •Heat exchanger is completely intact and safe from CO leaks
When Replacement is Smarter
- •Furnace is 18+ years old and breaking down repeatedly
- •Cracked heat exchanger (carbon monoxide hazard)
- •Repair bill exceeds $1,000+ on an ancient single-stage unit
- •Sky-high gas bills due to low efficiency (< 65% AFUE)
