Flooded basement after last night's storms?

Before you start cleaning up, take a few minutes to review the safety tips in the graphic below. If your furnace, water heater, electrical panel, or other equipment was exposed to water, don't try to turn it back on until it's been inspected.

If you're filing an insurance claim and need an assessment of flood-damaged HVAC or water heating equipment, call us. We can arrange for a licensed technician to inspect your equipment and provide documentation on its condition.

We have 24/7/365 live phone support and can arrange service as soon as possible.

When the power goes out, what's the first thing you should do? ⚡

Most people grab a flashlight. But the smarter first move is unplugging your electronics, because the surge when power comes back on can do more damage than the outage itself.

That's just one of the things a lot of Canadian homeowners get wrong. From how long your food actually stays safe to the winter risk that can cost you thousands (hint: frozen pipes), knowing what to do before the lights go out makes all the difference.
