📞 (604) 359-1081Request a free quoteA heat pump does everything your air conditioner does — same ducts (or a ductless setup), same whole-home cooling, same comfort. When your AC needs replacing, a heat pump is a direct, better replacement.
Beyond matching your AC’s cooling, the heat pump adds efficient winter heating and unlocks rebates that offset much of the cost. Many homeowners keep their furnace as backup for the coldest days. We’ll show you the numbers for both.
A heat pump both cools and heats, so it qualifies for the major programs. Depending on your home, fuel source and the equipment chosen, that can include CleanBC Better Homes, BC Hydro, FortisBC and the federal Canada Greener Homes incentives, plus the interest-free Greener Homes Loan (up to $40,000). Combined incentives frequently offset several thousand dollars.

Modern cooling equipment is sealed, pressurized and wired to be serviced by trained professionals — not opened up at home. Refrigerant is handled only by technicians certified to do so; releasing it is unsafe and illegal, and an incorrect charge will quietly wreck efficiency and shorten the compressor’s life. Capacitors hold a dangerous charge even with the power off, and a wiring or breaker mistake on your home cooling is a real shock and fire risk. A licensed CANRO technician diagnoses the true root cause, repairs it to code, keeps your manufacturer warranty intact, and leaves the system safe — the first time. If a part is dangerous or sized wrong, we tell you honestly.
CANRO serves homeowners across Metro Vancouver — Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey, Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, Port Moody, New Westminster, North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Delta, Langley, Maple Ridge and White Rock and the surrounding communities.
