Hot Water Services for Burnaby homes

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. With winter lows near 0–3 °C and summers reaching 22–26 °C, we see the full range of what Burnaby equipment has to cope with.

Water heating is typically the second-largest energy use in a home after space heating, and it's the one people only think about when it fails.

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.
