What can we help you with?
Heat pumps are an ideal fit for Vancouver homes because they provide efficient heating and summer cooling in one system. The city of Vancouver also has a streamlined mechanical permit pathway for most installations. We handle permits, design for neighbour‑friendly noise outcomes, and help you navigate CleanBC rebates.
Heat pump installation & replacement in Vancouver
New system installs, equipment upgrades, and replacements/exchanges
If you’re upgrading aging heating equipment (or adding cooling), we’ll design a system that matches your home’s layout and comfort goals.
What we install
- Multi‑zone systems (multiple indoor heads, one outdoor unit)
- Ducted heat pumps (best for homes with ductwork or central retrofits)
- Ductless mini‑split heat pumps (ideal for zoned comfort, no‑duct homes, suites/additions)
Replacements and Exchanges
If your system is older, frequently failing, or struggling to meet comfort needs, we’ll walk you through repair vs replace considerations and recommend the most cost‑effective path for your home.
Our install process
Heat pump repair in Vancouver
Troubleshooting, diagnosis, and professional repair
When your heat pump isn’t working properly, the fastest way to protect comfort (and avoid worsening damage) is a professional diagnosis. We service ducted and ductless systems and can advise whether repair is the right choice or whether replacement makes more sense.
Common repair calls we handle
- No heat / weak heat / no cooling
- Unusual noise or vibration (outdoor unit)
- Water leaks / drainage issues
- System cycling on/off too often
- Error codes / performance drops
Heat pump maintenance in Vancouver
Tune‑ups that prevent breakdowns and keep systems efficient
Maintenance is what keeps heat pumps quiet, efficient, and reliable—especially before summer heat and during winter heating season. Vancouver’s climate means heat pumps can run frequently (heating and cooling). Regular maintenance helps performance and longevity.
What a maintenance visit typically includes
- System inspection + performance checks
- Coil/airflow checks and cleaning where applicable
- Filter guidance and replacement schedule
- Controls and thermostat optimization
- Outdoor unit inspection for clearance/drainage
Heat pump permits and rebates in Vancouver
City permits (what Vancouver requires)
Vancouver requires a mechanical permit for installation and replacement of heat pumps and other heating/cooling systems. The City notes that many installations can proceed via mechanical permit without needing a development/building permit.
Noise & siting requirements (what we design around)
Vancouver’s Noise Control By‑Law No. 6555 applies, and the City’s guidance emphasizes quiet equipment selection and careful outdoor‑unit placement. For ground‑oriented dwellings, the City bulletin highlights inverter variable‑speed models and references a 55 dB(A) maximum noise output for certain streamlined pathways.
