Notes from Stony Plain service calls
Stony Plain's historic main street and murals are the town's face, but most of the heating work is in the subdivisions around it, built from the 1990s on. The furnaces in the older of those are now 20 years or more into service and are the ones to watch. A furnace that age that has started short-cycling, making new noises at start-up, or tripping out on its limit switch is worth an inspection before winter rather than a repair in the middle of it. A tune-up runs $129 to $219 and a safety inspection with a combustion and CO test $149 to $249, typical Edmonton ranges confirmed in writing first.
Hot water tanks from the same years are usually done too; a 40 or 50 gallon gas tank replacement with standard venting is typically $1,900 to $3,200, and a power-vented model $2,900 to $4,500. The newer homes follow the familiar pattern of side-wall PVC vents, frozen condensate lines in the coldest weeks and HRVs that need attention. Homes with no AC often ask about adding a cold-climate heat pump, which covers summer cooling and much of the spring and fall heating. The gas permit for a furnace or tank replacement goes through the Town of Stony Plain or its accredited agency rather than Edmonton.

Before We Arrive
Four Things Worth Doing First
Some no-heat calls end at step one. The rest go faster when we know what the furnace did before it stopped.
Step 1: Check the Basics
Thermostat set to heat and above room temperature, batteries, the furnace switch and breaker, and a filter that isn't grey and bowed.
Step 2: Look at the Vents
From outside, find the two white PVC pipes. Snow drifted over them or a ring of frost inside is the most common cold-snap shutdown.
Step 3: Read the Blink Code
Count the flashes on the board through the sight glass on the blower door. The chart is inside the door. It saves diagnostic time.
Step 4: Send the Request
Community, furnace age if you know it, what it's doing and the blink code. We reply with an arrival window for Stony Plain.
