Air Conditioning Installation for Coquitlam homes

Vancouver summers are not what they used to be - heat waves and wildfire smoke have made cooling a necessity. CANRO installs air conditioning from central systems to ductless mini-splits. Coquitlam spans the flats of Maillardville and the city centre up to the hillside neighbourhoods of Westwood Plateau and the new-construction boom on Burke Mountain.

The mix of brand-new Burke Mountain homes and established neighbourhoods means we install everything from heat pumps in new builds to replacement furnaces and boilers in older homes. Coquitlam has a mild coastal winter that turns cooler and snowier with elevation on Burke Mountain and Westwood Plateau, and we factor that into every recommendation. Higher-elevation Coquitlam neighbourhoods like Burke Mountain see colder snaps, so we size heating with the local microclimate in mind.

Reasons to add air conditioning

  • Upstairs bedrooms are unbearable on summer nights
  • You want to close windows against wildfire smoke and still stay cool
  • You have ductwork and want whole-home central air
  • You have no ducts and want efficient ductless cooling
  • You are considering a heat pump to get cooling AND heating from one system

How we install your cooling

  • Honest advice on AC versus a heat pump (which also heats and earns rebates)
  • Right-sizing so the system dehumidifies properly and does not short-cycle
  • Central or ductless mini-split options to suit your home
  • Clean, quiet installation with proper line-set and condensate routing
  • Commissioning to manufacturer spec for rated efficiency

Brands we work with

We install and service Carrier, Bryant, Lennox, Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, Goodman and American Standard - and we will work on whatever you already have. Our recommendations are based on what fits your Coquitlam home and budget, never on what we are pushing this month.

Frequently asked questions

Should I install AC or a heat pump in Coquitlam?+
A heat pump costs about the same as central AC to install but does double duty - cooling in summer and efficient heating in winter - and it qualifies for CleanBC/BC Hydro rebates that pure AC does not. For most Coquitlam homeowners we recommend at least pricing the heat-pump option; we will show you both honestly.
How much does air conditioning cost in Coquitlam?+
Central air conditioning typically runs about $5,500-$9,500 installed, depending on home size and whether your ductwork needs changes. Ductless mini-splits vary with the number of indoor heads. We quote firmly after sizing the system to your home.
Can I add AC to my existing furnace?+
Often yes - if you have a ducted furnace in good condition, we can add a matched coil and outdoor condenser to create central air. We check your ductwork and electrical capacity first. If your furnace is older, it can be a good moment to consider a heat pump instead.
Ductless or central air for a home without ducts?+
If you have no ductwork (baseboard or boiler heat), a ductless mini-split is the efficient way to add cooling - and the same units provide heating too. We design the zones around the rooms you actually use.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need air conditioning in Vancouver?
Vancouver summers have been getting hotter — the 2021 heat dome saw temperatures over 40°C. Most modern Vancouver homes now install a heat pump that provides both heating and cooling, replacing a furnace and avoiding the need for a separate A/C system.
How much does central A/C cost in Vancouver?
A typical 2.5–3 ton central air conditioner added to an existing forced-air furnace costs $5,500–$9,500 installed. A heat pump conversion (cooling + heating in one unit) is usually a smarter long-term investment given available rebates.
How often should A/C be serviced?
Annual servicing in spring keeps the outdoor coil clean, refrigerant charge correct, and the indoor evaporator coil and condensate drain clear. Skipping service is the single biggest cause of premature compressor failure.
