About Afterglow
Local & Family-Run for 30+ Years
We are a local, independent business, passionate about making a personal impact through honesty, integrity, and providing consumers more options.
Founded by George McDonald, when he invented a revolutionary way to clean water heaters, Afterglow soon evolved into a full-service HVAC company.
How It All Started
Our journey began in 1991 with founder George McDonald’s passion for repairability and consumer choice. Through innovative tools and processes, he rejuvenated gas, electrical, and oil-fired water heaters, preventing them from being replaced, and saving customers thousands.
After 16 years of servicing Waterloo Region as ‘Delta De-Liming’, we evolved in 2007 into ‘Afterglow’, a homegrown, full-service HVAC company.
Our Legacy Continues
Today, with George’s sons, Stephen and Paul, leading the way, we continue to put our customers and employees first, delivering exceptional comfort and peace-of-mind to homes, apartment buildings, and businesses across Waterloo Region & beyond.
Our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction remains unwavering, ensuring that every project we undertake meets the highest standards.
Rooted in the Community
As a family business with deep roots in Waterloo Region, giving back to our community is an important part of who we are. Some of the charities and organizations we support include:
- Canadian Cancer Society: Supporting cancer research and providing support to those affected by cancer.
- Habitat For Humanity: Helping build and imprive affordable housing in our community.
- Supportive Housing of Waterloo: Providing affordable housing and support services to individuals and families in need.
