Lower Mainland summers used to be optional for air conditioning. After the 2021 heat dome — and every summer since — they aren't. We install central AC on existing ducts, ductless mini-splits for older homes without ducting, and high-efficiency heat pump systems that handle both AC and heating on one unit.
We assess your home's existing ducting (or lack of), electrical capacity, and cooling load; spec the right equipment for your square footage and layout; install the system; and confirm performance with proper airflow and refrigerant testing. Strata approvals for condos and townhomes are handled as part of our scope at no extra charge.
Maple Ridge specifics: Maple Ridge sees colder winters than coastal Vancouver and hotter summers — a textbook heat pump market. The Silver Valley elevation can drop below -10°C in winter cold-snaps, making cold-climate inverter heat pumps the right call for that area. Silver Valley and higher-elevation Maple Ridge homes need cold-climate heat pumps rated for -25°C — we don't undersize for elevation winters.
