Dependable garage heater installations and precision repairs across Alberta

Garages across Alberta lose heat quickly through cold concrete slabs, overhead doors, and uninsulated walls. An undersized heater runs constantly without keeping the space comfortable, while an oversized unit short cycles and wastes fuel. Whether you are adding a new heating system to your workshop or repairing an existing unit that fails to fire during freezing weather, JUJCO provides dependable heating solutions tailored to Alberta winter conditions.

Our certified technicians install and repair forced air gas unit heaters and radiant tube systems with precision. For new installations, we calculate heating loads, secure ceiling mounting brackets, connect code certified gas piping, install dedicated exterior venting through walls or roofs, and calibrate digital wall thermostats. For existing heaters, we diagnose failed igniters, clean flame sensors, replace gas valves and blower motors, and ensure combustion safety so your garage stays reliably warm all season.

Frequently asked questions

How much does garage heater installation cost in Alberta?

Garage heater installation in Alberta typically ranges between $2,200 and $4,500 including the heating unit, certified gas line installation, electrical wiring, exterior venting, and professional permits. Total pricing depends on whether you select a forced air unit or a radiant tube heater, the heating capacity required, the length of the gas line from your meter or house, and whether exterior venting exits through a sidewall or the roof. JUJCO provides clear upfront written quotes with no hidden fees before any work begins.

What size garage heater do I need for my Alberta garage?

A standard attached two car garage in Alberta usually requires between 30,000 and 45,000 BTU, while a larger three car or detached garage typically needs 45,000 to 75,000 BTU. The exact heating requirement depends on ceiling height, wall insulation, and whether your overhead doors are insulated. An undersized unit struggles during -30°C winter cold snaps, while an oversized unit short cycles and wastes natural gas. Our technicians perform accurate heat loss calculations to ensure your heater warms the garage efficiently without unnecessary fuel consumption.

Which is better for an Alberta garage, a forced air unit or a radiant tube heater?

Forced air unit heaters warm the surrounding air quickly, making them ideal for homeowners who frequently open overhead vehicle doors or need rapid heat upon entering the workspace. Radiant tube heaters warm concrete slabs, vehicles, and tools directly using infrared heat without blowing air or circulating dust, making them exceptionally quiet, energy efficient, and comfortable for woodworking or long hobby projects. We assess your garage ceiling height, floor plan, and intended activities to help you choose the best system.

Why is my garage heater blowing cold air or failing to ignite?

When a garage heater fails to produce heat, the most frequent causes are a dirty flame sensor, a tripped high limit switch, an obstructed exterior exhaust vent, or a faulty hot surface igniter. In Alberta winter conditions, snow or frost buildup outside can also block the exhaust pipe or fresh air intake, causing the internal pressure safety switch to prevent ignition. If power cycling the heater and checking the wall thermostat does not restore heat, a licensed technician should test gas pressure and electronic safety controls.
