About Us | Alberta Furnace Cleaning

We are Family, We are Neighbours

Alberta Furnace Cleaning in Edmonton is a local family business, since 1981. To us, being a family business doesn’t just mean that members of the owners’ family work in the business. It means that we embrace our people as a part of our family. We have many long-term career employees who have been a part of our carpet, furnace and duct cleaning company for over 20 years each, and several multi-generation families of employees!

Our company purpose is: We Take Care of People. A core part of our hiring process is to assess the natural helpfulness and friendliness of candidates – we always try to hire people who are the kind of people who care about people and the community!

Our History

In the fall of 1981, John Rudolph was living near Vancouver, BC when he heard about the opportunity to buy and run a struggling Edmonton offshoot of a local carpet cleaning company. He rushed home to tell his wife, who was 6 months pregnant with their second child. She listened to him, walked to a closet and grabbed a moving box, and said “I guess it’s time to pack!”. A few years later, furnace & duct cleaning services were added with Alberta Furnace Cleaning.

In 2024, the business was purchased by the long term management team, including both Rudolph family and non-Rudolph family partners.
Our history includes many ups (winning the Consumer Choice Award for Business Excellence in Edmonton in our category every year it’s been surveyed) and downs (losing our office to fire once!), but one thing has always remained the same for over 40 years: Alberta Furnace Cleaning is a proud part of Edmonton, and we’re here to serve you.

Our Purpose

We are proud to be over 50 people strong in Edmonton, with team members from almost every continent (sorry Antarctica, no penguins here!). Regardless of role, background or position, our people are united by a common purpose, which is: We Take Care of People.

We seek to fulfill our purpose by helping over 18,000 customers every year to maintain pleasant and clean indoor environments through furnace and duct cleaning, HRV (heating, recovery, ventilator) cleaning, air conditioning coil cleaning, dryer vent cleaning, commercial HVAC cleaning, and carpet and upholstery cleaning. On any given day, our skilled & experienced duct cleaning technicians can be found cleaning in homes all over Edmonton and surrounding areas. We also do larger industrial HVAC cleaning projects at schools, hospitals, and businesses around Northern Alberta and occasionally, even for our neighbours in BC and Saskatchewan, and once in a while Manitoba!

In Our Community

We value community very highly, which is why we strive to be a good corporate citizen the best way we know how – by cleaning. Alberta Furnace Cleaning provides free carpet and upholstery cleaning services to many Edmonton non-profit organizations including Ronald McDonald House, e4c, Make a Wish Foundation, Little Warriors Be Brave Ranch, Habitat for Humanity and many more.

Alberta Furnace & Duct Cleaning Company Reviews

This company knows their stuff, provides great customer service and excellent work. I’m totally happy with how the two very friendly annd knowledgeable associates cleaned my furnace, vents, dryer vent and AC coil. I will certainly book my next appointment with them.

- Mark

The technicians were efficient and very friendly. They explained what they how and what they were doing. The only thing was there was some sort of residue left on the concrete from their truck all the way to our front door that was not there before they arrived. (Dark stains on our driveway, walkway and front steps leading into the house).

- Maureen Miyagishima

I had an excellent experience with Alberta Furnace Cleaning. They promptly arrived on the first working day of the year, despite the cold weather. Their team provided detailed explanations regarding the service performed and offered helpful tips for maintaining my units. I am confident that I will book with them again in the next few years.

- Ramir L

The men who did the work were extremely friendly and professional. They were sure to introduce themselves to each of us properly. They explained everything they were doing and even showed us before and after pictures. They were very respectful of our home and used boots covers each time even when going back and forth from outside to in. They cleaned and wiped up their work areas before they left, which was very appreciated. We would hire them again, without hesitation.

- Melanie Collins

Alberta Furnace crews are professional and thorough from appointment to home service. I had my furnace serviced by someone else before and I can say that Alberta Furnace is far better. They protect the corners, walls and floors of the house and leave no marks behind. Their equipments are state-of-the-art. The best in what they do! Price is fair as well.

- Antonio Jr Reyes

A big shout out to Andrew and Aaron from Alberta Furnace Cleaning. My husband and I had recently renovated our home and were noticing a fine dust on everything that I couldn’t keep up with. Andrew and Aaron came in and cleaned the furnace, air conditioning unit and all the duct work. It was shocking to see what the found - construction debris, dog toys, tennis balls etc. They definitely have the equipment to thoroughly clean the mechanical and duct work. Both workers used care in removing vent covers, and cleaned all surfaces, properly replacing the grills when done. They were on time, efficient, polite and respectful of ourselves and our home. I could not be happier.
