Overview
Choosing the right furnace replacement in Burnaby
When a furnace in an older Burnaby home reaches the end of its life, the obvious answer is a new gas furnace. But many Burnaby homeowners are now considering heat pumps, especially after recent summer heat waves, and some choose dual fuel to get the best of both. Furnace replacement in Burnaby is often a choice between three good options rather than one.
We help you weigh them. A high-efficiency gas furnace is a reliable, familiar choice. A ducted heat pump can provide most of your heating and all of your cooling through the same ducts. Dual fuel keeps a furnace for the coldest days. We look at your ducts, electrical panel, venting and how you use your home, then give you clear written quotes for each path.
Burnaby replacement considerations
These factors shape the right choice for older Burnaby homes.
Ducted heat pump
Heats and cools through existing ducts, with electric efficiency.
Dual fuel
A heat pump paired with a gas furnace for cold-snap backup.
Chimney retirement
New venting replaces the old masonry chimney connection.
Panel capacity
Older homes may need electrical upgrades for a heat pump.
Water heater venting
A gas water heater left on the chimney may need a liner.

Questions homeowners ask us
Still unsure? Call (236) 222-2222 and talk it through with us.
Is a heat pump a good replacement for my Burnaby furnace?
In Burnaby's mild climate, heat pumps can handle most heating needs and add cooling. Ductwork and electrical capacity matter. We assess your home and give an honest recommendation.
What happens to my old chimney?
High-efficiency furnaces and heat pumps do not need it. If a gas water heater still uses the chimney, it may need a liner or new venting, which we include in the quote.
Do I need to upgrade my electrical panel for a heat pump?
Some older Burnaby homes do. We check your panel during the visit and include any needed work in the quote.
Can I keep my gas furnace and add a heat pump?
Yes. That is dual fuel. The heat pump handles most heating and all cooling, and the furnace takes over in very cold weather.
Are rebates available in Burnaby?
Provincial, utility and sometimes municipal programs have supported heat pumps and efficient equipment. Programs change often, so we confirm current options during your quote.
