New venting
High-efficiency furnaces vent through plastic pipe to a side wall or roof.
Moving from an older mid-efficiency furnace to a modern system? We handle the venting, airflow and water heater details that a quick swap misses.
No heat, no hot water or a gas smell? Call any time, day or night.
Many Port Coquitlam homes still run mid-efficiency furnaces vented into a masonry or metal chimney, often shared with a gas water heater. When you replace that furnace with a high-efficiency model, it moves to plastic venting through a wall. The water heater is then left alone on a chimney sized for two appliances, which can cause poor drafting and spillage. Furnace replacement in Port Coquitlam should always address this.
We also look at airflow. Older PoCo homes often have small return air paths and transitions that make a new furnace noisy and less efficient. A proper replacement includes a static pressure test and any sheet metal improvements needed. You get a clear quote covering the furnace, venting, water heater changes and duct work, so nothing is left as a surprise.
These are what separate a good replacement from a quick swap.
High-efficiency furnaces vent through plastic pipe to a side wall or roof.
An orphaned water heater may need a chimney liner or new venting.
Properly sized sheet metal for quieter, efficient airflow.
Measuring airflow resistance to confirm ducts suit the new furnace.
Add cooling and efficient heating with a heat pump or dual fuel.
Modern furnaces use less gas than older mid-efficiency units.
Citadel Heights, Mary Hill and Oxford Heights homes from the 1970s to 1990s often have mid-efficiency furnaces and shared chimneys. Replacement here usually includes venting changes and water heater checks.
Lincoln Park, Glenwood and Birchland Manor include older bungalows with compact basements, low ceilings and narrow stairs, so we plan how the old unit comes out before the day of the install. Riverwood townhomes need compact furnaces and careful venting routes through limited exterior wall space, often with strata rules on where pipes may exit.
We test airflow and check venting and the water heater.

If they share a chimney, removing the furnace can leave the water heater venting poorly. We check and include any needed liner or venting changes.
Usually, especially if we correct undersized returns and transitions. Two-stage and variable-speed furnaces are also quieter.
If you want cooling or lower gas use, it is a good time to consider it. Dual fuel keeps the furnace for cold weather.
Usually a day. Venting changes or duct work may add time, and we note this in the quote.
Provincial and utility programs have supported efficient upgrades and heat pumps. We confirm current options during your quote.
