About RBD
HVAC, the way it should be.
Residential Building Design was founded on a simple frustration: nobody should have to chase three quotes to find out what an air conditioner costs. We publish our pricing, we build it with you, and we stand behind it.
Guaranteed pricing
The number you build is the number you pay — within a 10% variance, always.
Canadian first
We lead with Napoleon — engineered and assembled in Barrie, Ontario.
Clean installs
Drop cloths, shoe covers, photo documentation. We leave it cleaner than we found it.
Our story
Builders, not salespeople.
RBD started inside a residential design practice. We watched homeowners get worn down by opaque quotes and pressure tactics, and decided to build the company we'd want to hire. Our team is small, our installers are full-time, and our pricing lives on this website.
