## Heating and cooling in Fort Erie homes

Fort Erie's housing is older than most of the region: according to the 2021 Census, about 39% of homes were built before 1961 and 82% are single-detached. Lake Erie winters bring wind and heavy snow, so reliable heat matters.

- **Older homes and cottages (Crystal Beach, Ridgeway):** [ductless heat pumps](https://lancasterheatingandcooling.ca/heat-pumps/ductless/) add efficient heating and cooling without ductwork.
- **Lake Erie winters:** keep high-efficiency furnace vents clear of snow drifts. See our [furnace troubleshooting checklist](https://lancasterheatingandcooling.ca/furnace-not-working-checklist/).
- **Electric or propane heat:** switching to a cold-climate [heat pump](https://lancasterheatingandcooling.ca/heat-pumps/) can cut costs, and these homes qualify for the largest [rebates](https://lancasterheatingandcooling.ca/rebates/).

## Customer reviews

> "I was hit by a surge from power outage, and lost the freezer, dehumidifier, phones, clocks and furnace, Richard and his crew got my new furnace in very quick as my wife suffers from bad allergies, and uses a CPAP machine as me too, and gave a great price too. Thanks." — Abi and Ken, Fort Erie, ON, Google
