Meet your trusted HVAC Expert
For over 12 years, Rafael has been the technician contractors and homeowners turn to when the problem won’t budge. Starting his career in Quebec, he built a reputation as the specialist who could tackle the most complex HVAC and refrigeration challenges — the one you call when others have already tried and failed.
As a Red Seal certified Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Mechanic, Rafael brings a rare depth of knowledge to every project. From geothermal systems and VRFs to commercial refrigeration and advanced controls, he approaches every job with the same precision and curiosity he brings to restoring cars, fabricating custom parts, and welding in his garage.
Our Story
In 2025, Rafael and Dorothée made a decision that surprised a lot of people.
They sold their house in Quebec, bought a converted bus, and spent three months driving across the United States with their two kids and their dog Thanos. Alberta was always the plan, the road trip was simply their way of arriving on their own terms.
They landed in Calgary knowing nobody. Rafael built his client base from scratch through sheer expertise and word of mouth — one job at a time, one satisfied client at a time. Dorothée built the business infrastructure in parallel : the website, the billing and accounting systems, and all administration. Together, they spent countless hours researching Alberta’s trade regulations to make sure everything was done right from day one.
What makes Wild West Comfort different is simple: Rafael focuses entirely on delivering exceptional results in the field, while Dorothée makes sure everything behind the scenes runs just as smoothly.
In less than a year, Wild West Comfort became a trusted name among Calgary contractors and homeowners — built on reputation alone.
We didn’t wait for the right moment. We created it.
