About Bluefire Air

Family-run, on call since 2008.

We started with one van and a promise to treat every home like our own. Eighteen years and eight trucks later, the promise has not changed: honest diagnoses, fixed prices and work we put our name on.

Our story

From one van to the GTA’s most-recommended HVAC team

Sami Haddad founded Bluefire Air in 2008 after fifteen years as a commercial refrigeration mechanic. He was tired of seeing homeowners sold equipment they did not need, so he built a company around three rules: diagnose before you sell, quote a fixed price, and come back if it is not right. Today Bluefire Air is a team of 24, including 14 licensed technicians, and still family-owned.

  • Founded by a Red Seal refrigeration and air conditioning mechanic
  • Technicians are employees, never subcontractors
  • Every truck carries the same tools, parts and training

  • 2-year workmanship warranty on every repair
  • Year-one comfort guarantee: if a new system is not keeping you comfortable, we fix it or replace it

Why customers stay with us for years

Most of our new customers are referred by an existing one.

4.9 from 1,200+ reviews
“Mina explained every option without any pressure and handled the rebate paperwork. Our first winter on the heat pump cost almost half what the oil boiler did, and the house has never been this even.”
Rachel M. Leaside · Heat pump conversion
“Arjun found an undersized return duct that two other companies missed. The new furnace is so quiet we check the thermostat to see if it is running. Upstairs is finally comfortable.”
David O. The Beaches · Furnace & AC
“No heat at 11 p.m. with a newborn. A real person answered, gave me a price on the phone and the technician had it fixed by 12:30. I joined the maintenance plan the next morning.”
