AC Replacement for Burnaby homes
Mild and coastal, though Burnaby Mountain and Capitol Hill sit high enough to hold snow and run several degrees colder than the valley floor around Metrotown. Dense and vertical near Metrotown and Brentwood, with substantial stock of post-war bungalows and 1960s–80s homes through Capitol Hill, Burnaby Heights and Edmonds. When we quote a replacement in Burnaby, those conditions decide the specification.
Summers here are not what they were. Since the 2021 heat dome, cooling has gone from a luxury to something most Lower Mainland homeowners want in place before July.
Our process
How replacement works
-
Honest assessment
We start by telling you whether replacement is genuinely warranted. If a repair makes better sense, we say so.
-
Options and rebates
You get more than one option at different price points, with available rebates applied to each.
-
Removal and disposal
The old equipment comes out and is disposed of properly — that is included, not an extra line.
-
Installation and commissioning
New system installed to spec, permitted, tested under load and handed over working.
Local knowledge
What we watch for in Burnaby
Mild and coastal, though Burnaby Mountain and Capitol Hill sit high enough to hold snow and run several degrees colder than the valley floor around Metrotown.
- A large share of Burnaby work is in stratas. Exterior condenser placement, noise limits and building envelope penetrations all need strata sign-off — we've done this often enough to know what the councils ask for.
- Older Capitol Hill and Heights homes commonly have no existing ductwork, which makes a ductless mini-split the practical route to cooling without tearing up finished ceilings.
- Elevation matters here: a system sized for Metrotown may be short on capacity for a home partway up Burnaby Mountain.
The City of Burnaby issues mechanical and building permits; gas fitting is regulated by Technical Safety BC. Strata buildings may require separate approval, which we help coordinate.

FAQ
AC Replacement in Burnaby — common questions
How do I know it's time to replace?
Age over 12–15 years, rising power bills, repeated repairs, or a system still running R-22 refrigerant all point to replacement. We use the 50% rule: if the repair costs more than half a new system, replace it.
Should I replace with a heat pump instead?
For most Lower Mainland homes, yes — worth asking about. A heat pump cools exactly like an air conditioner and also heats, and it qualifies for rebates a straight AC replacement does not.

Yes — Burnaby is a regular part of our service area. About 35 minutes from Surrey depending on bridge traffic. We cover Metrotown, Brentwood, Edmonds, Capitol Hill and the surrounding areas.
