Many older houses in Metro Vancouver run a furnace for heating, allowing for easy adaptation to a heat pump. For older homes using hydronic heating, such as baseboards or radiant floor heating, a ductless mini-split heat pump is the perfect choice. To confirm suitability for your home, schedule a free, no-obligation estimate with us.

Servicing of heat pumps depends on the type and age of the unit, the frequency of use, and the level of maintenance performed on the system. Generally, expert heat pump installers recommend heat pumps should be serviced once a year to maintain the system’s warranty, and to ensure the heat pump is running smoothly, efficiently, and safely.

Generally, heat pumps are more efficient than gas and oil heaters, and they rely on clean hydroelectricity here in Vancouver. This also makes them more environmentally friendly. If you already have a furnace, we can also add a heat pump which gives you heating and cooling—all in one.

Generally, HVAC professionals suggest servicing a boiler system every year so it maintains warranty, operates efficiently, and meets safety standards. To verify the maintenance schedule for your system, check the manufacturer’s instructions and recommendations.

First, the property is assessed to determine the most appropriate boiler system. The technician may also modify the existing heating system to accommodate the new boiler. After installation, boiler installers also test the system to ensure it is operating correctly and efficiently.

Many older homes in British Columbia use Poly B (polybutylene) pipes throughout the house for hydronic heating. As Poly B is not an oxygen barrier, it expedites the corrosion of cast-iron heat exchangers in boilers. So, they are prone to damage and leakages due to the wide water temperature ranges in mid-efficiency single-stage boilers.

We suggest you choose a high-efficiency boiler system with a stainless steel heat exchanger and stable water temperature. This will prolong the lifespan of the system and reduce the chances of water damage in your home.

Generally, HVAC professionals suggest servicing a furnace system every year so it maintains warranty, operates efficiently, and meets safety standards. To verify for your system, check the manufacturer’s instructions and recommendations.

Natural gas furnaces are the most common furnace type in Metro Vancouver, and are known for their energy efficiency and cost effectiveness.

Ductless mini split systems are heat pumps that heat and cool air in individual spaces, rather than through a centralized ducting system. A major feature is the possibility of separately controlling the temperature in each individual room for ultimate comfort and energy savings.

First, we will help provide you with installation options by assessing your home’s size as well as the heating and cooling needs. The installation itself varies in length depending on the number of units and spaces, and finally, we test and commission the system to ensure it is working smoothly and safely.

Ductless mini split systems provide more control over the temperature of each room while being an affordable HVAC system. In addition, since it does not require ducting, it can be installed in homes using hydronic heating or electric baseboard heating, unlike centralized heat pump systems.
