Mini-Split Installation for Maple Ridge homes

Sizing a system for Maple Ridge means designing against -1–3 °C winter lows and 24–28 °C summer highs — not a provincial average. New subdivisions climbing the hillside through Albion and Silver Valley, older riverside homes in Hammond, and large rural and semi-rural properties out toward Whonnock and Websters Corners. We assess the house in front of us rather than working from a rule of thumb.

A large share of older Lower Mainland housing — character homes, beach cottages, post-war bungalows — has no ductwork at all. Ductless is what makes those homes coolable without gutting them.

Our process

How installation works

  1. In-home assessment

    We measure the house rather than the old equipment — square footage, insulation, windows, orientation and layout.

  2. Load calculation

    Sizing comes from that assessment. Over-sizing is the single most common installation error and it costs you comfort and equipment life.

  3. Written quote

    Fixed pricing with the rebates you qualify for already applied, so you see the real number.

  4. Permitted installation

    We pull the municipal and gas permits, install to spec, and protect your floors while we work.

  5. Commissioning and walkthrough

    We test the system under load, balance it, and show you how to run it before we leave.

Local knowledge

What we watch for in Maple Ridge

Wetter than most of our service area, sitting against the mountains. Higher-elevation Silver Valley and Whonnock properties see genuine snow accumulation most winters.

  • Rainfall here is among the highest in Metro Vancouver. Condenser pads need proper drainage and elevation or they sit in standing water through the winter.
  • Silver Valley and Whonnock elevation means colder design temperatures — we don't size a hillside Maple Ridge home the same way we'd size one in Pitt Meadows ten minutes away.
  • Rural eastern properties are often past the gas main, so electric heat pumps and propane systems make up a larger share of our work here.

The City of Maple Ridge issues mechanical permits; gas work falls under Technical Safety BC. Permits are included in our installation scope.
