HVAC Contract Help in Durham Region

Durham Region — Oshawa, Whitby, Ajax, Pickering — has been a recurring market for door-to-door HVAC and water heater rental contracts.

About this region

Oshawa's mature housing stock and the 1980s-2000s suburban development across Whitby, Ajax, and Pickering have produced a steady flow of long-term rental contracts now subject to challenge under the 2018 amendments.

The legal framework

The 2018 amendments to Ontario's Consumer Protection Act apply province-wide. Six grounds — unconscionable pricing, unsolicited contact, misrepresented energy savings, unfulfilled maintenance, improper installation, and unfulfilled rebate promises — can render a Durham Region HVAC agreement unenforceable. Only one needs to apply. See the full six grounds.
