We Are A Local Business

We Are A Local Business

Niagara Home Heating is a local company that serves the Niagara Region. We take pride serving our friends and neighbours all over the Niagara Falls Area.

By being a local business we benefit the Niagara Region in several ways.

We support other local businesses. We use several locally owned businesses to supply us with our parts and equipment for every job we do. We also hire local accountants, insurance brokers, computer consultants, attorneys, and advertising agencies to help run our business.

When you choose us for your next furnace and/or air conditioner you know that the money you spend will stay in the community.

The Ripple Effect: How Your Furnace or AC Purchase Powers Our Local Economy

Let’s talk money — but not in the way you think. When you call us for a new furnace, air conditioner, heat pump, or even a tankless water heater, that decision doesn’t just warm your home. It keeps the wheels turning right here in Niagara.

We source 90% of our parts and equipment from local suppliers. That means:

• Electrical components from family-run shops in St. Catharines
• Ductwork and insulation from wholesalers in Welland
• Tools and safety gear from hardware stores in Thorold

Last year alone, we spent over $150,000 with those partners. That money goes to their payrolls, their families’ grocery bills, their kids’ hockey teams. And guess what? Those same suppliers call us when their office heat goes out — it’s a full circle.

We don’t stop at parts. Running a business like ours takes a village:

• Our accountant is a dad from Niagara Falls who coaches little league.
• Our insurance broker is a mom from Pelham who volunteers at the food bank.
• Our IT guy lives in Grimsby and fixes our computers while telling stories about fishing on the lake.
• Even our advertising? Handled by a creative agency in downtown St. Catharines that’s all about highlighting local gems like us.

When you choose a national chain, that money funnels straight to corporate headquarters hundreds of miles away. With us? It recirculates right here — strengthening jobs, schools, and the little league fields our kids play on. One customer in Fort Erie told me last month, “John, I picked you because I want my money helping the guy down the street, not some suit in the city.” That’s the Niagara way.

Hands-On Care from the Top: Why Owner Involvement Changes Everything

I’m not the type to sit in an office pushing paper while someone else fixes your furnace. Every day, you’ll find me out in the field — sleeves rolled up, tools in hand, right alongside my technicians.

Why? Because I started this company in 2008 with one truck and a promise: treat every home like it’s my own. That hasn’t changed. Whether it’s diagnosing a tricky heat pump in a 1920s bungalow in old Glenridge or installing a ductless system in a new build in Fonthill, I’m there making sure it’s done right.

Take Vince from Niagara Falls. His AC crapped out on a sweltering July evening. I hopped in my truck, got there in under an hour, and had him cooling again by bedtime. He texted me the next day: “John, you didn’t have to come yourself, but I’m glad you did — explained everything without rushing.” That’s not heroics; that’s just how we roll.

Or Allison in Welland, who called panicked about her furnace making a weird noise. I coached her through a quick reset over the phone, saving her a service call. “You saved my weekend,” she said. Moments like that? They’re why I love this job.

As a local owner, I can make decisions on the spot that put you first. No red tape, no corporate approval needed. If that means swapping a part from another job to get you heat tonight, or adjusting a quote to fit your budget without skimping on quality — it happens. Big chains? They’d have to email HQ and wait three days.

Unbeatable Value: Local Flexibility Means Better Deals for You

Being independent isn’t just about heart — it’s about smarts. Without a central office dictating terms, we can curate the best product selection and pricing tailored to Niagara homes.

We carry proven brands like Carrier for premium quiet comfort, Goodman for rock-solid reliability, Daikin and Fujitsu for innovative ductless solutions, and Lennox for top-tier efficiency — all sourced efficiently because we’re not locked into one supplier’s markup.

That flexibility shines in our pricing. I negotiate directly with distributors, pass those savings to you, and offer promotions like our current “new furnace as low as $55/month” financing through Financeit (easy payments, no hidden fees). Customers like Daniel K. rave about it: “Used Niagara Home Heating for 16+ years — best service and pricing. Saved thousands.”

And our free second opinions? If you’ve got a quote from elsewhere, bring it over. We’ll review it honestly — no obligation. Jillian L. did just that: “Amazing furnace installation. Helpful owner, competitive quote, professional technician.”

Community Roots, Community Heart: We’re Invested in Niagara’s Future

We didn’t just start here — we stay here. My kids go to school in the region, I coach minor hockey in Thorold, and on weekends, you’ll find me at the St. Catharines Farmers’ Market grabbing fresh produce from local growers.

That investment shows in how we give back. We sponsor community events, like the annual Niagara Falls Santa Claus Parade, and partner with charities for holiday toy drives. Last winter, we donated furnace tune-ups to families in need through the local United Way chapter.

It’s simple: when Niagara thrives, we thrive. And when you choose us, you’re part of that. Mario A. nailed it in his review: “Fantastic, reasonably priced hot water tank service.” Nancy G. added: “Efficient removal of old solar water heater; quick booking and knowledgeable team.”

Why Local Matters More Than Ever in Today’s World

In an age of online everything and overnight shipping, it’s easy to forget the value of “right here, right now.” But when your heat fails at midnight or your AC quits during a heat dome, you want someone who knows the quirks of Niagara’s old stone houses and new energy-efficient builds. Someone who understands lake-effect snow and cottonwood pollen seasons.

As an independent, we adapt fast. Need a custom zoning setup for your quirky escarpment home? Done. Want eco-friendly heat pumps that qualify for rebates? We’ll handle the paperwork. Prefer financing that fits your cash flow? Financeit makes it seamless.

And satisfaction? I personally guarantee it. If we don’t hit the mark, I make it right — because my name’s on the door, and my reputation’s on the line.
