Crafting comfort in every climate

Cory has a wealth of heating and cooling experience. His journey began in 2007 as a residential HVAC technician, installing furnaces, heat pumps and air conditioning units in homes across BC. He then spent several years in the commercial sector as a refrigeration mechanic, installing large refrigeration solutions to supermarkets. During his time as a commercial HVAC technician, he studied and gained the prestigious Red Seal certification, in addition to completing his B-gas fitter ticket.
