About Oro-Medonte

Oro-Medonte Township stretches from the Lake Simcoe shore up through the hills around Horseshoe Valley. It's a mix of lakeside homes in Shanty Bay and Hawkestone, rural properties, and resort-area homes and condos near the ski hills.

Finding your home: Line roads

Many Oro-Medonte roads are numbered "Lines" (for example, Line 7 North), crossed by concession and side roads. When you call, give your civic number, the Line number and whether it's North or South. That helps much more than a postal code.

Seasonal and part-time homes

Chalets and second homes around Horseshoe Valley and along the lake are often empty for days at a time. If the furnace fails while nobody is there, pipes can freeze. A thermostat with temperature alerts, a neighbour who can check in, and a fall tune-up all lower the risk.

Winter conditions

The higher ground around Horseshoe Valley gets plenty of snow, and shoreline homes face strong winds off Lake Simcoe. Both can drift snow over furnace vent pipes. Some properties heat with propane, so keep an eye on the tank level through the winter.

Common furnace problems in Oro-Medonte homes

Furnace off when you arrive at a seasonal home, often from a power outage or blocked vent.
Snow-covered vent pipes on the side of the house.
Low propane causing the furnace to stop.
Noises after a long idle period: see furnace making noises.

Before you call from Oro-Medonte

If you smell gas or a carbon monoxide alarm is sounding, leave the home and call 911 from outside first. Otherwise, these details help:

Your civic number, Line or road name and North or South
Whether anyone is at the home now
Whether water pipes are at risk of freezing
Your fuel type (natural gas or propane)

Oro-Medonte furnace questions

How do I protect a seasonal home in Horseshoe Valley if the furnace fails?

If you can't get there quickly, ask a neighbour to check the home and, if needed, shut off the main water valve and open taps to drain pressure. A thermostat with temperature alerts warns you early. Then call us with the address and what's happening.

What address details help in Oro-Medonte?

Give your civic number, the Line or road name and whether it's North or South, plus any landmarks for long driveways. Rural addresses can be hard to find in snow or at night, so a lit civic number sign helps too.
