Rated 4.9 Stars by 260+ Metro Vancouver Customers
Real reviews from 260+ customers across Metro Vancouver, covering furnace, boiler, heat pump, maintenance, residential, strata and commercial HVAC work.
"VanHeat Services recently completed maintenance on four systems at our home: the AC, air handler, tankless water heater, and HRV. Shaun was very knowledgeable, professional, and thorough... VanHeat Services is now our go-to company for maintaining the heating, cooling, and ventilation systems in our home."
"...the inspection was thorough enough to actually find another issue with the boiler system, which is required to keep the house warm in winter. Both issues were fixed within a few hours... I highly recommend this company if you are looking for quick service appointment and affordable price for parts or replacement."
"We live in Cyprus and have a rented commercial property in Vancouver. We had an issue with the VRF system two nights ago and called Vanheat Services for urgent help. Their crew showed up the very next day and fixed the rooftop unit very quickly. The price was also very reasonable. The Vanheat technicians were professional, reliable, and knowledgeable. We highly recommend Vanheat Services for commercial and strata properties."
"Technician was prompt, professional and friendly. Cost for annual servicing of our furnace and tankless water heater was reasonable. We will definitely be calling them again next year."
"Sean was amazing! Communicated all aspects of work. Thank you"

Common HVAC Problems in Coquitlam Homes
HVAC issues Coquitlam properties can experience, what can cause them and how they are usually fixed.
Heat Pump Sizing and Snow Clearance on Hillside Properties
What you see: A heat pump running for long periods, reduced heating performance, or snow restricting airflow around the outdoor unit, which hillside properties such as those on Burke Mountain can experience in winter.
Cause: Heat pump performance depends on equipment capacity, the home's heating load, outdoor temperature and unobstructed airflow. Higher-elevation properties can also require more attention to snow clearance around the outdoor unit.
Fix: We assess the home's design heating load, equipment capacity and outdoor unit placement. Where needed, options include improved snow clearance, manufacturer-approved mounting, relocation, backup heat or a properly sized cold-climate system, each quoted in writing. For system-specific fault diagnosis, icing, error codes and repair guidance, see our heat pump repair Coquitlam page.
Zone Imbalance in Westwood Plateau Homes
What you see: Upstairs too warm while the main floor stays cool, or a basement that is hot in winter and cold in summer, which can happen in larger multi-storey homes such as many on Westwood Plateau.
Cause: A single-zone system can struggle to serve three or four levels evenly, especially if the ductwork is undersized for the home.
Fix: A load calculation per zone identifies the imbalance. Options include zoning dampers and thermostats, a ductless unit for the problem zone, or a variable-speed heat pump, quoted in writing as part of a free installation estimate.
Aging Cast Iron Boilers in Maillardville
What you see: Cold radiators while the boiler runs, falling pressure, leaks at valves or joints, kettling, or a yellow flame, which can occur in older hydronic systems such as those in some Maillardville heritage homes.
Cause: Sediment and magnetite build up inside the boiler, and relief valves, expansion tanks and circulator pumps wear with age. Some older systems have pipe insulation that needs professional handling during service or replacement.
Fix: Boiler repair typically costs $150 to $600. At end of life, replacement with a high-efficiency condensing boiler is quoted in writing. A standard gas-to-gas boiler replacement may not qualify for a rebate, and heat pump incentive programs are separate.
HRV Service in Burquitlam Condos
What you see: Stuffy air, condensation on windows and lingering cooking odours, which can occur in newer airtight condos such as those along the Burquitlam and Lougheed corridor.
Cause: Airtight condo construction relies on the HRV for fresh air. The HRV needs regular filter and core service, which is easy to overlook in a suite.
Fix: HRV service covers filters, core cleaning, the condensate drain and the motor, quoted in writing when you book. Strata properties can arrange coordinated multi-unit HRV servicing, scheduled around the number of units and access requirements.
Restricted Ductwork in Older Split-Levels
What you see: Whistling vents, rooms that never reach set temperature and a blower that runs constantly, which can occur in older split-level homes in areas such as Austin Heights and Ranch Park.
Cause: Older split-level homes can have return or supply ductwork that limits airflow after newer equipment is installed.
Fix: A static pressure test confirms the restriction. Added returns, larger trunks or extra supply runs are quoted separately from equipment, in writing.
Seeing any of these? Call (604) 281-4790. Describing the symptom when you book helps us send the right technician and parts.
Why HVAC Service in Coquitlam Has Its Own Considerations
Four things shape how we approach HVAC work in Coquitlam.
Elevation Range
Coquitlam runs from near sea level at the Fraser River to hillside neighbourhoods on Burke Mountain. Higher areas such as Burke Mountain, upper Westwood Plateau and Eagle Ridge can run colder than Maillardville in winter, which affects heat pump sizing and defrost behaviour.
Several Housing Eras
Maillardville heritage homes with hydronic systems, 1970s and 1980s split-levels, 1990s and 2000s Westwood Plateau homes and newer SkyTrain-corridor condo towers each bring different equipment and problems.
Transit-Oriented Strata Growth
Coquitlam continues to concentrate significant residential growth around transit-oriented areas such as Burquitlam, Lougheed and City Centre. HVAC work in these strata and high-rise buildings often requires coordination with property managers for approvals, suite access, elevator bookings and mechanical-room access.
Equipment Placement Rules
For one-family, two-family, triplex, quadruplex and street-oriented village homes, Coquitlam's Zoning Bylaw requires exterior mechanical equipment such as heat pumps and air conditioners to sit at least 1.0 metre beyond the required interior side lot line setback, and central heating and cooling vents must not discharge toward the neighbouring lot along an interior side lot line. We review placement, noise and the applicable permits before installation.

Should I install a heat pump or replace my furnace in Coquitlam?
For many central Coquitlam homes, a cold-climate heat pump is worth serious consideration, while in colder areas such as Burke Mountain and upper Westwood Plateau a dual fuel setup with a gas furnace backup may suit some homes, depending on the home's design heating load. Heat pump installation typically costs $3,000 to $5,500 for a ductless single-zone system and $6,000 to $14,000 for central or multi-zone systems. We quote both options in writing so you can compare.
Do Coquitlam strata and high-rise buildings allow heat pump installation?
Heat pump installations are available for high-rise and strata buildings, subject to strata approval. Approval usually depends on outdoor unit placement, balcony rules, noise limits, condensate drainage, electrical capacity and building envelope requirements. We assess the technical requirements for your suite and provide documentation to support your strata application, but the decision rests with the strata corporation.
Are there heat pump rebates for Coquitlam homeowners?
Rebate eligibility depends on your existing heating fuel, property type, household income and current program requirements. Options include the CleanBC Energy Savings Program for income-qualified households and BC Hydro rebates for homes heated by electricity, while program funding lasts. For qualifying residential properties, FortisBC offers a dual fuel heating system rebate of up to $4,000, or up to $8,000 for income-qualified customers, when a gas furnace at least 15 years old is replaced with a qualifying heat pump and gas furnace system. Eligibility and terms apply, and FortisBC determines final eligibility. Programs change during the year, so as a FortisBC Trade Ally Network member we help you confirm eligibility with the program before you commit.
