Heating System Design & Diagnostics
Boilers, hydronic systems and gas heating, properly diagnosed, designed, installed and commissioned by certified specialists for residential and commercial properties.
A heating system is more than a boiler on the wall. We design, install and tune the whole system: the boiler, piping, zones and controls.
Any contractor can swap one box for another. A heating specialist looks at the whole system first. We check how the home or building actually uses heat, how the zones are piped and what's failing before we quote. Then we size, install, permit and commission the equipment so it runs quietly and efficiently for years.
Sized to the building
Boiler output is matched to your existing heating load and hot water demand, not oversized out of habit. A right-sized boiler cycles less and lasts longer.
Class A Gas Certified
Our Gas A licence covers high-input boilers and commercial plants above Gas B limits, so one team handles the full project.
Diagnosed before quoted
We use thermal imaging, combustion analyzers and pressure testing to find the real cause, so you pay for the right fix the first time.
Permitted & commissioned
We pull gas permits, coordinate inspections, test combustion on start-up and register the manufacturer warranty for you.

From an aging boiler to a clean, high-efficiency mechanical room
The homeowner's original wall-hung boiler had reached the end of its life. On day one we restored domestic hot water. Then we replaced the boiler with a Rinnai IP120S condensing boiler, reworked the piping layout and handed over a tidy, labelled system with a live controller.

We find the problem before we quote the fix
Cold rooms, short cycling, leaks and error codes all have a cause. We use the same specialized diagnostic tools on heating systems that we're known for in leak detection.
Thermal imaging
We scan boilers, piping and heat exchangers to spot overheating, blockages and failing components.
Radiant floor mapping
We see in-floor loops without lifting a tile, so we can confirm even heat, find cold zones and trace leaks.
Combustion analysis
Every start-up and tune-up is verified with a combustion analyzer for safe, efficient burning.
Clear, concise and professional, from first visit to final start-up
Inspect
On-site assessment of your existing boiler, piping, zones, venting and gas supply.
Quote with options
A clear written quote, often with options: heating only, boiler with indirect tank, or combi.
Permit & install
Gas permit, clean installation and protection of your home or building during the work.
Commission
Combustion testing, control set-up, inspection sign-off and warranty registration.
Maintain
Annual maintenance and fast service when you need it, including 24/7 no-heat calls.
Heating for homes, multi-unit buildings and commercial properties
From single-family homes to non-profit housing and commercial buildings, we install and maintain boiler plants of every size. Our Class A gas certification lets us work on high-input boilers beyond Gas B limits.
On commercial projects we run factory start-up with the manufacturer's technicians, complete combustion tests and start-up forms, coordinate with Technical Safety BC and stay on as the service contractor afterward.
"Clear, Concise and Professional. No surprises."

Heating questions we hear most
Should I replace my boiler or repair it?
It depends on age, condition and parts availability. We'll diagnose the system first and tell you honestly whether a repair is worth it. If replacement makes more sense, we'll explain why and give you options.
What's the difference between a heating-only boiler and a combi boiler?
A heating-only (solo) boiler heats your home and can be paired with an indirect tank for hot water. A combi boiler heats your home and makes instant hot water in one wall-hung unit, so you don't need a separate tank.
How do you size a new boiler?
We start from your existing heating capacity and how the building actually performs, then adjust for zones, radiant floors and hot water needs. Most high-efficiency boilers also modulate, so they can turn down on milder days.
Do you handle permits and inspections?
Yes. We pull the gas permit, coordinate the inspection, commission the equipment and register the manufacturer warranty.
Do you offer emergency no-heat service?
Yes. For urgent no-heat or leaking boiler issues in Metro Vancouver, call our 24/7 line at 1-778-998-5889.
