CANRO designs, installs, repairs and replaces central AC — and we’ll tell you honestly whether central AC or a ductless or heat-pump system is the smarter choice for your home.

📞 (604) 359-1081Request a free quoteCentral AC works beautifully when you already have ductwork in good condition and room for an outdoor condenser. If your ducts are undersized, leaky or absent — common in older Vancouver homes, condos and laneway houses — a ductless mini-split often cools better for less disruption. And if you’d like rebates and winter heating from the same system, ask about a central heat pump.
Standard air-conditioning (cooling only) generally does not qualify for BC’s big efficiency rebates — those reward systems that also heat. The good news: a heat pump cools your home in summer and heats it in winter, and it does qualify. If rebates matter to you, ask us to quote a heat pump alongside the AC — the incentives often make the higher-performing system the cheaper choice over time.

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 central AC 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. Local, licensed technicians who know BC homes, BC electrical and gas code, and BC rebate programs.
A central AC added to a home with usable ductwork typically runs in the mid-thousands, depending on the tonnage, efficiency (SEER2) and any duct or electrical upgrades. We quote it in writing after a load calculation.
Usually yes — if your ducts and electrical panel can support it, we add an evaporator coil and outdoor condenser to your existing forced-air furnace.
A heat pump uses the same ducts but also heats your home and qualifies for rebates. If you’re replacing or adding cooling anyway, it’s often the better long-term value. We’ll compare both for your home.
A well-maintained central AC typically lasts 12–17 years in our climate. Annual maintenance and correct sizing make a big difference.
