is it time to upgrade your heating system?

If your heating system is showing any of these signs, replacement may be your best option:

15+ years old - Efficiency declines and repairs become more frequent.

Rising energy bills - Older systems work harder and cost more to run.

Frequent breakdowns - Repair costs add up fast.

Uneven heating - Cold spots or rooms that never warm up.

Loud or unusual noises - Struggling systems signal the end is near.

Why upgrade now?

Modern heating systems offer 90-98% efficiency (compared to 50-80% for agin furnaces), lower monthly bills, and with CleanBC rebates up to $21,000, upgrading to a heat pump has never been more affordable.

Plus, with our 12-year labour warranty, you'll enjoy over a decade of worry-free heating.

How to choose the right heating system

The best heating system for your home starts with one key question: What do you have now? Your existing infrastructure - ductwork, radiant floors, baseboards, or nothing at all - determines which systems make sense for your home and budget.

If You Have a Furnace & Ductwork

Your existing setup:

Central forced-air system with ductwork throughout your home.

Your best options:

Want heating + cooling? → Heat Pump or Dual Fuel System
Heat pumps provide year-round comfort and qualify for up to $21,000 in rebates. Dual fuel adds a gas furnace backup for cold snaps for maximum reliability and cost-effective heating during the coldest weeks.
Just need reliable, affordable heating? → High-Efficiency Furnace
If you don't need cooling and want the most straightforward, budget-friendly option, a modern 95%+ efficiency furnace is your best bet.

What's the most efficient heating system for Metro Vancouver?

Heat pumps and ductless mini splits offer the highest efficiency (up to 300% efficiency or 3:1 heat output vs energy input) and work exceptionally well in Metro Vancouver's mild winters. Modern high-efficiency furnaces and boilers also deliver 95%+ efficiency. The "best" system depends on your home's infrastructure, whether you need cooling, and your budget.

Are heat pumps or dual fuel systems cheaper to run?

Heat pumps are generally cheaper to operate during mild weather (above 5°C) due to their high efficiency. However, during very cold weeks, dual fuel systems can be more cost-effective because the gas furnace provides heat more efficiently than running the heat pump at its capacity limits, especially with the cheaper natural gas prices. Over a full year in Metro Vancouver's climate, both systems offer excellent operating cost savings compared to older furnaces or electric baseboards.

How long does a heating installation take?

Furnace: 1 day

Boiler or Combi Boiler: 2 days

Heat Pump (central): 2 days

Dual Fuel System: 2-3 days

Ductless Mini Splits: 1 day per indoor unit installed

We'll provide a more accurate timeline during your free quote based on your specific project.

Do I need to upgrade my electrical panel for a heat pump?

Usually no, but it depends on your current panel's capacity and available circuits. Most homes can accommodate a heat pump without an upgrade. We'll assess your electrical setup during the free in-home assessment and let you know if an upgrade is needed. The good news: electrical service upgrades may qualify for additional CleanBC rebate funding if done with a heat pump.

What's the difference between a heat pump and a furnace?

A furnace burns natural gas to generate heat and only provides heating. A heat pump transfers heat from outside air (even in winter) into your home and provides both heating and cooling. Heat pumps are highly efficient and qualify for rebates, but some homeowners prefer dual fuel systems (heat pump + furnace backup) for added reliability during cold snaps.

Are heat pumps worth it in BC?

Absolutely. Modern cold-climate heat pumps work efficiently down to -25°C, well below Metro Vancouver's typical winter lows. They provide year-round heating and cooling, qualify for up to $21,000 in CleanBC rebates, and significantly lower energy bills compared to electric baseboards or older furnaces. For BC's mild climate, heat pumps are one of the best investments you can make.

What size heating system do I need?

System sizing depends on your home's square footage, insulation quality, window efficiency, ceiling height, number of levels, and layout. For heat pump and dual fuel installations, we perform detailed heat load calculations to ensure your system is properly sized for efficiency, comfort, and long-term reliability. This calculation is included in your quote and completed during a separate visit after your initial assessment. Properly sized systems deliver better comfort, lower energy bills, and longer equipment life - oversized systems waste energy and short-cycle, while undersized systems struggle to keep you warm.

How much does a new heating system cost?

Heating system cost vary based on the type, size, and complexity of installation:

High-Efficiency Furnace: Starting at $5,500 + GST

High-Efficiency Boiler: Starting at $11,500 + GST

High-Efficiency Combi-Boiler: Starting at $12,100 + GST

Central Heat Pump: Starting at $13,650 + GST (before rebates up to $21,000)

Dual Fuel Systems: Starting at $17,600 + GST

Ductless Mini Splits (Single-Zone): Starting at $3,600 + GST

Ductless Mini Splits (Multi-Zone): Starting at $4,600 + GST per zone

We'll help you confirm eligibility, submit applications, and navigate any paperwork required.
