What Gloucester means on our service map

Gloucester was its own city until it joined Ottawa in 2001, and it covered a lot of ground. The western half of Orleans, Riverside South and Leitrim-Findlay Creek were all part of it, and each of those has its own page on our site because the housing there is so different.

This page is about the established Gloucester neighbourhoods in between: the east-end communities near the Ottawa River and the Greenbelt, and the south-end streets off Bank Street and Hunt Club. Most homes here are decades old, well kept and often renovated, which shapes almost every HVAC job we do.

What Gloucester means on our service map
What to know

Gloucester neighbourhoods we work in

Blackburn Hamlet

A self-contained community ringed by the Greenbelt. Mostly single-family homes of a similar age, so furnace and AC replacements tend to come in waves along each crescent.

Beacon Hill North and South

East-end neighbourhoods near the Ottawa River, with split-levels and two-storeys. Return-air upgrades and AC replacements are frequent requests.

Rothwell Heights

Large lots and custom homes, some heated by hot-water boilers. Systems here are often one-off designs that need a careful look before any replacement.

Pine View and Cyrville-Carson Grove

Near the Pine View golf course and the 417. A mix of older bungalows and newer infill, each with very different equipment needs.

Blossom Park and Elizabeth Park

South-end homes near the airport and Bank Street. Many are on an aging second furnace, and gas lines for new ranges are common during kitchen updates.

Renovating in Gloucester? Plan the HVAC first

Renovating in Gloucester? Plan the HVAC first

A lot of Gloucester HVAC calls start with a renovation. Planning the heating and cooling before the drywall goes up saves money and avoids rooms that never feel comfortable.

Finishing the basement

Add supply and return air to the new space, keep the furnace and water heater serviceable, and leave an access panel at every shut-off. We can lay this out before your contractor frames.

Adding a sunroom or addition

Extending old ductwork into a new room rarely works well. A one-zone ductless mini-split ($3,500 – $6,500 installed) heats and cools the addition on its own thermostat.

Switching to a gas range

Our licensed gas technicians run, connect and pressure-test the line. A new gas line for a range, BBQ or dryer typically costs $350 – $1,000.

The final price depends on the home, equipment and venting/ductwork, and Oria gives free quotes on any equipment purchase.

Oria Heating and Cooling

Mature trees, hardworking condensers

Gloucester’s tall trees keep houses shaded, but they are hard on air conditioners. Cottonwood fluff, maple seeds and leaves pack into the condenser coil, which forces the compressor to run hotter and longer.

A spring AC tune-up, typically $120 – $200, includes cleaning the coil and checking refrigerant and electrical parts. Older condensers that still use R-22 are often better replaced than recharged once they leak.

“Mansoor was incredibly fast to respond, offered help over the phone and came over the following morning. He’s a total pro, diagnosed the problem within a few minutes…” – Phil G., Google review

Boilers, furnaces and everything else
Oria Heating and Cooling

Boilers, furnaces and everything else

Some older Gloucester homes, especially custom builds, heat with hot water rather than forced air. Those systems are serviced, repaired and replaced through our boiler services; expect $7,000 – $15,000 if the boiler itself needs replacing.

For the rest of the neighbourhood, these are the main services Gloucester homeowners book:

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers from licensed Ottawa technicians. Still have a question? Call us any time.

(613) 866-186924/7 emergency line

Does Oria work on furnaces in Blackburn Hamlet?

Absolutely. Blackburn Hamlet is one of the Gloucester communities where we regularly tune up, fix and replace furnaces, along with Beacon Hill, Rothwell Heights, Pine View and Blossom Park. Our licensed gas technicians handle every brand, and our emergency line runs around the clock in winter and summer. Phone (613) 866-1869 to arrange a visit.

How do I heat and cool a sunroom addition in Beacon Hill?

A ductless mini-split is usually the best answer for a sunroom or addition. It heats and cools the space independently, so you avoid stretching older ductwork that was never sized for the extra room. Plan on $3,500 – $6,500 for a one-head system. Oria sizes it for the room’s glass and exposure.

My AC condenser sits under a big tree. How often should it be cleaned?

Under mature trees, a condenser should be cleaned at least once a year, ideally in spring after seed and fluff season, and checked again mid-summer. Keep 60 centimetres clear around the unit. A professional tune-up, typically $120 – $200, includes a coil cleaning, refrigerant check and electrical inspection.

Do you repair hot-water boilers in Rothwell Heights?

Yes. Oria services and repairs hot-water boilers in Rothwell Heights and other older Gloucester neighbourhoods, including pumps, controls, expansion tanks and venting. When a boiler is beyond repair, we replace it with a high-efficiency heating or combi boiler. Boiler replacement typically costs $7,000 – $15,000, depending on the system.

Can you install a gas line for a new range during a kitchen renovation?

Yes. Book the gas line early in your renovation so it can be run before cabinets and finishes go in. A licensed Oria gas technician sizes the line, installs a shut-off valve and pressure-tests the work. A gas line for a range, BBQ or dryer typically costs $350 – $1,000, depending on distance.

Are Riverside South and Orleans covered by your Gloucester service?

Yes, although each has its own page because the homes are so different. Riverside South is mostly newer construction, and Orleans spans several decades of building. Oria serves all of the former City of Gloucester, including Leitrim and Findlay Creek, with the same licensed technicians and 24/7 emergency service.

Recently had our aging furnace replaced by Mansoor and his team. Mansoor was very responsive from the very beginning, from first contact to the completion of work. Friendly and polite from start to finish. It was very easy to book a visit/inspection and kept me posted when he was on his way and estimated time of arrival. The quote was competitive and very detailed and he answered all my questions and requests for clarification promptly and professionally. He kept me updated on the arrival of the furnace and when the installation would be. Replacement of our old furnace with a new Lennox 97% AFUE was done efficiently and my home was left as it was, housekeeping after the installation was done well, as clean as when they arrived. Overall a great experience with Mansoor and his team from Oria Heating and Cooling.

5/5 Stars. We had a wonderful experience with Ori Heating and Cooling Ottawa for our new air conditioner installation. The technicians arrived on time, explained the process, and completed the installation quickly. They were very respectful of our home and left everything completely clean. The pricing was fair, and the service was top-notch. If you need HVAC work, this is the company to call! Mr. Mansoor is the head and I am glad to see him that when his staff completed the job and he came and checked by himself and make sure that his staff completed the job effectively this is more Impressive.

Great service ! He was professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable. He arrived on time, quickly diagnosed the issue, and got everything working properly again. He took the time to explain what was needed and made sure everything was running smoothly before leaving. Really appreciate the excellent service and would definitely recommend him to anyone needing AC work.

My A/C suddenly stopped cooling, and it turned out to be the capacitor. Mansoor replaced it right away and explained clearly and kindly what caused the problem and how to take care of the system going forward. I really appreciate his great service. Thank you so much for bringing the cool air back to my home and saving my summer!

Our home AC unit stopped working on a hot day during a long weekend. Called Oria and spoke to Mansoor. He was at my house in 30 minutes. Tried several different approaches to fixing the problem and provided his opinions on the best way forward without trying to sway me in either direction. I ultimately decided my best option was to not put good money over bad and just replace the 13 year old unit with a new one. Mansoor set an install date for a few days later as the replacement unit needed to be ordered. The install went very smoothly and I was very impressed with how neat the install was both inside and outside the house. The techs were a pleasure to work with also; very professional and courteous. I had one snag that wasn't Oria's fault, but the manufacturer's, and I was very impressed with how Oria handled it. When the new unit was started up, it worked fine, but the fan vibrated more than it should; something was not right. The techs advised Mansoor and he came personally to inspect. He then got on the phone to the manufacturer, who advised that they had received several issues with this model recently, and that the fan would need to be replaced. Mansoor obtained the replacement fan a few days later and promptly did the swap. He did not leave the issue to me to sort out under warranty. Instead he took the bull by the horns and wanted to make it right for me. I greatly appreciated that. Needless to say, I would recommend Oria anytime. EDIT: Well, Oria came to my rescue once again. The blower motor on my furnace crapped out Thursday evening, so no AC (again just before a long weekend). Spoke with Mansoor Friday morning, and to make a long story short, I had a new furnace installed before lunch on Saturday (furnace was 19 yrs old, so figured go new). Perfect job and a great price. I don't know how you can beat that. Don't waste your time trying. Just call them.

Owner is very honest. I suspected my AC compressor was broken when I first called him. He came and diagnosed the same issue, but went through numerous other attempts to fix it before determining that the compressor was beyond repair and needed to be replaced. He even tried to install some jump starter piece which broke, and just ate the cost without charging extra. What we really appreciate is that given how expensive AC replacement is, and despite the fact that this sort of job would make him the most money immediately, he still went through many different steps to try to avoid replacement. This is someone who really does care about his customers and making a lasting business. We will be using his company again if we ever have other issues

Our AC suddenly stopped cooling, even though it was still blowing air. I called Mansoor at Oria, and he arrived within two hours. He quickly diagnosed the problem, explained everything clearly, and had our AC back up and running in no time. Mansoor was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and professional throughout the entire service call. It’s refreshing to deal with someone who takes the time to answer questions and genuinely cares about doing the job right. I highly recommend Mansoor and Oria for anyone looking for fast, honest, and reliable HVAC service all at a reasonable price. Thanks again!
