Elite Home Services, a local, family-owned heating, cooling and plumbing company that has served Mountain View County for more than 18 years.

Bowden is on the QEII in Red Deer County, about 45 km south of Red Deer, where the first section of Highway 2A ends. The area was first called Lone Pine, after a well-known stopping place on the Calgary to Edmonton Trail, and the most widely accepted story says a local surveyor suggested his wife's maiden name for the town. Passenger trains arrived in 1891, and Bowden became a village in 1904 and a town in 1981.
During the Second World War, RCAF Station Bowden was home to No. 32 Elementary Flying Training School, a site that later became the Bowden Institution. Today the Bowden Pioneer Museum fills the old curling rink, about 300 students attend Bowden Grandview School from kindergarten to grade 12, and the annual Bowden Daze Pro Rodeo comes each summer. There is a nine-hole golf course, and Red Lodge Provincial Park is nearby.
In the 2021 census, 48.3% of Bowden's occupied homes were built between 1961 and 1980, the highest share of any town, village or hamlet Elite Home Services covers, and 62.1% are single-detached. Treated water comes from the Mountain View Regional Water Services Commission into the town's reservoir and is tested twice daily.

Gavin and Liam were excellent! We had Gavin come out and do a consult for us last winter when we noticed our furnace was acting up and made a plan to replace it. Today they came out and got the new one in place! Efficient and very knowledgeable. Very happy with the service.
Gavin was incredible to work with. He was punctual and even got the job done ahead of schedule. There were no surprises. The quote was exactly what it cost. I would recommend Elite Home Services to anyone who is looking for an HVAC contractor and specifically Gavin as he is one of a kind.
We needed a thermocouple changed out in our furnace. It being a holiday I wasn't sure what I would be looking at for service or price. The serviceman, Gavin, was here within the hour. He was very professional and he handled our problem quickly and efficiently, and we weren't overcharged for the holiday, like a couple other places insisted on doing. We are 100% fully satisfied and would highly recommend their service to anyone. A1 Customer service.

Older than in most nearby towns. In the 2021 census, 48.3% of occupied homes in Bowden were built between 1961 and 1980, and 57.8% before 1981 in all. Only 4.3% were built from 2011 to 2021. An older furnace is worth a check before winter, not during it.
From the Mountain View Regional Water Services Commission, which treats Red Deer River water at its Anthony Henday plant northwest of Innisfail and supplies it to the town's reservoir.
