Burnaby furnace installation FAQ
How long does a furnace installation take?
Most straightforward gas furnace replacements take 4–6 hours. A furnace-and-AC combo or furnace-to-heat-pump conversion typically runs 8–12 hours and may stretch into a second day if electrical service upgrades are involved.
Do I need a permit for a furnace installation in Burnaby?
Yes — every gas-fired appliance install in BC requires a TSBC gas permit, and the City of Burnaby requires a mechanical permit for new ductwork or significant alterations. We pull all required permits as part of the install — you don’t have to lift a finger.
How long do furnaces last in Burnaby’s climate?
Burnaby’s mild, damp winters are easy on furnaces compared to the Prairies. A well-maintained high-efficiency furnace will typically last 18–22 years here. If yours is over 15 years old and starting to need repairs, replacement is usually the smarter long-term call — newer 95%+ AFUE units cut gas bills by 25–35%.
Should I switch from a gas furnace to a heat pump?
For most Burnaby homes — yes, if the budget and electrical service allow. With CleanBC rebates and Greener Homes funding, payback periods on cold-climate heat pumps have dropped to 6–9 years for the average Burnaby SFD. Learn more about heat pumps in Burnaby, or call us for a side-by-side cost comparison.
What size furnace do I need for my Burnaby home?
Rough rule of thumb is 25–35 BTU per square foot for Burnaby’s climate, but that’s just a starting point. We do a proper Manual J load calculation that factors in your home’s insulation, window count, ceiling height, exposure, and air-sealing condition — oversizing a furnace is one of the most common (and expensive) mistakes contractors make.
Do you service commercial buildings in Burnaby?
Yes. We install rooftop units, makeup-air units, and commercial gas furnaces for warehouses, office buildings, restaurants, and multi-residential properties across Burnaby — including the Big Bend, Lake City, and Burnaby Mountain industrial zones.
