Mini-Split Service for Richmond homes

Extensive high-rise and townhome development through City Centre and Brighouse, 1970s–90s single-family homes across Broadmoor and Terra Nova, and heritage and newer homes in Steveston. With winter lows near 1–4 °C and summers reaching 21–25 °C, we see the full range of what Richmond equipment has to cope with.

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.

Local knowledge

What we watch for in Richmond

Built on the Fraser delta at close to sea level, Richmond is the mildest city we serve. Ocean influence keeps both extremes in check, but it comes with wind and salt air.

  • Richmond sits at or near sea level with a very high water table. Crawlspaces flood more readily here than anywhere else we work, so furnace and ductwork placement has to account for it.
  • Steveston and western Richmond get direct salt exposure off the Strait — coastal-rated outdoor equipment is not an upsell here, it's what makes the warranty hold.
  • City Centre's tower density means most work is strata-governed, with restrictions on exterior penetrations and balcony equipment that shape what's actually installable.

The City of Richmond issues mechanical and building permits, and gas fitting is regulated by Technical Safety BC. We manage permitting and strata documentation.
