New plenum and transitions
Properly sized sheet metal connections let air flow smoothly into the duct system.
Many PoCo houses still run on ductwork designed for a furnace from another era. We install new equipment that works with, and improves, what you have.
No heat, no hot water or a gas smell? Call any time, day or night.
Walk through Citadel Heights, Oxford Heights or Birchland Manor and you will find plenty of split-levels and basement-entry homes built between the 1970s and 1990s. Their furnaces have usually been replaced once already, but the ductwork, return grilles and gas lines are often original. A new furnace connected to tired ducts with a cheap transition box rarely performs the way the brochure promises.
That is why our furnace installation in Port Coquitlam includes a hard look at airflow. We measure static pressure, check that the return air is large enough, and rebuild the plenum and transitions so the blower is not fighting the duct system. The payoff is a quieter furnace, more even heat in the far bedrooms and less wear on the motor.
These improvements often matter as much as the furnace itself.
Properly sized sheet metal connections let air flow smoothly into the duct system.
Many older homes have one small return; adding capacity reduces noise and strain.
Moving from an older mid-efficiency unit to a condensing furnace cuts wasted heat up the flue.
When the furnace leaves the chimney, the gas water heater may need a liner or new vent.
Installing an A/C-ready coil now makes adding cooling or a heat pump simpler.
A deeper filter catches more dust and needs changing less often.
Older bungalows around Glenwood and Lincoln Park often have basement furnaces with compact, low-ceiling mechanical rooms. Up on Citadel Heights and Mary Hill, larger split-levels can suffer from cold lower floors and warm upper bedrooms, and the fix usually involves returns as well as equipment.
Townhouse complexes in Riverwood and around the Coquitlam River often use small closet furnaces that need careful vent routing through limited exterior walls. Whatever your PoCo home looks like, we plan the installation around its layout rather than squeezing in a standard approach.
We check the house, the ducts and how the current furnace performs.
You get clear options, from a straight swap to duct improvements and cooling.
New furnace, venting, sheet metal and drain installed with your space protected.
We measure temperature rise and airflow to confirm the system is performing.
Static pressure testing shows whether your ducts can support the new furnace.
Split-levels, basements and townhouses are our everyday work.
A clear quote comes before any work starts.

Noise from a new furnace often comes from undersized return air or poorly made transitions. The blower moves more air than the ducts can handle, causing whooshing and whistling. Correcting the sheet metal usually helps.
Rarely all of them. Usually the plenum, transitions and returns need attention, while most branch ducts can stay. We test first and only recommend what makes a measurable difference.
Once a furnace moves to plastic venting, a gas water heater left alone on a large masonry chimney may not draft properly. We check and quote a liner or new venting if needed.
Yes. If we install a matching coil with the furnace now, adding an outdoor A/C or heat pump unit later is a smaller job.
