Heating Maintenance for Burnaby homes

Maintenance intervals matter more in some places than others. 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.

Our winters are rarely severe, but they're long, damp and grey — and a heating system that struggles in November will be worse by February.

Our process

What's included in a maintenance visit

  1. Clean

    Coils, burners, filters and drains — the accumulated debris that quietly costs you efficiency all season.

  2. Test

    Airflow, refrigerant charge or gas pressure, electrical connections, controls and safety devices.

  3. Calibrate

    Thermostat and control settings adjusted so the system runs the way it was designed to.

  4. Report

    A plain-English summary of the system’s condition and anything worth watching — with no pressure attached.

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.
