A pre-summer inspection confirms your cooling system is ready for the season — catching small faults before they become hot-day emergencies. CANRO Heating & Cooling has cooled Greater Vancouver homes since 1999. Call (604) 359-1081 or request a free, no-obligation quote.

Think of it as a readiness check: we verify your AC, mini-split or heat pump is clean, correctly charged, draining properly and cooling to spec, then flag anything that needs attention — on your schedule, not during a breakdown.

What we inspect

  • Refrigerant performance and signs of leaks.
  • Coil and filter condition and airflow.
  • Condensate drain and pan.
  • Electrical components and controls.
  • Measured cooling output and thermostat accuracy.

Rebates & financing

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.

CANRO confirms exactly what you qualify for and handles the paperwork. Prefer to spread the cost? We offer flexible financing so you can cool your home now and pay over time. See current rebates & financing →

Why hire a licensed technician

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 cooling system 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.

Frequently asked questions

How is an inspection different from a tune-up?

A tune-up cleans and services; an inspection focuses on confirming readiness and identifying issues. Many homeowners book the inspection and have us tune up anything that needs it.

When should I get a pre-summer inspection?

Late spring, before the first sustained heat. It gives time to address any findings before you depend on the system.

What if you find a problem?

We explain it plainly and quote any repair in writing. There’s no obligation — you decide.

Good to know

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.
What HVAC services does CANRO offer in Metro Vancouver?
CANRO installs, services and repairs boilers, furnaces, heat pumps, hot water tanks, tankless water heaters, gas fireplaces and air conditioning across Metro Vancouver. We work on residential homes, townhouses and condos throughout the Lower Mainland.
