Maple Furnace serves New Westminster, BC from our Burnaby shop on Merritt Ave. The Royal City sits right on the Fraser River next door, so our trucks reach Queen's Park, Sapperton, and Downtown in minutes for furnace, heat pump, air conditioner, boiler, water heater, and gas fireplace work across one of the oldest cities in British Columbia.
The city holds some of the province's most extensive heritage housing stock, with century-old character homes in Queen's Park, Glenbrooke North, and Brow of the Hill that often run older furnaces, hydronic boilers, and radiator heating. Downtown, Uptown, and Sapperton are dense with condo towers and strata buildings that rely on in-suite fan coils and central plant equipment, while Queensborough on Lulu Island adds detached homes and newer townhouses on the river flats. We work with homeowners, tenants, and strata property managers across all of it.
Our certified technicians cover furnace repair, furnace installation, heat pump repair, heat pump installation, AC repair, AC installation, mini-split repair, mini-split installation, boiler service, water heater service, gas fireplace service, indoor air quality, duct cleaning, gas line installation, heater repair, and commercial HVAC with commercial refrigeration for New Westminster businesses.

The housing stock changes sharply from one neighbourhood to the next across New Westminster's compact footprint.
The city's signature heritage neighbourhood, lined with character homes over a century old that often still run older furnaces, hydronic boilers, and radiator heating. We service original boilers, retrofit furnaces, and walk owners through heat pump options that respect the structure and finishes.
A historic riverside neighbourhood in the northeast, anchored by the Royal Columbian Hospital and a growing cluster of condo towers near the SkyTrain station. We handle in-suite fan coils, split systems, and tankless water heaters in the towers, and furnace and boiler service on the older single-family streets.
The commercial and residential hub around Sixth Street and Sixth Avenue, with a dense mix of mid-rise condos, apartments, and surrounding homes. We provide written reports for strata records when work touches shared mechanical systems.
The waterfront core along Columbia Street, where condo towers overlook the Fraser River and the Quay, dominated by in-suite fan coils, central plant equipment, and split systems.
An established neighbourhood of single-family homes on the city's western edge, bordering Burnaby. Housing spans several decades, so we move between aging furnaces and newer high-efficiency systems.
A quiet residential pocket in the southwest, close to the 22nd Street SkyTrain station and the Burnaby boundary, with detached homes running gas furnaces and the occasional boiler. Heat pump conversions and water heater replacements are the most common calls here.
The part of New Westminster on Lulu Island, blending older detached homes with newer townhouse and single-family developments on the river flats. The low, flat terrain means we pay attention to equipment placement and drainage.
A dense, central neighbourhood on the slope above Downtown, mixing older houses, character conversions, and low-rise apartments. The older housing stock means plenty of furnace and boiler service, along with duct cleaning.
Established single-family neighbourhoods north of the city centre - Glenbrooke North with older character housing, Massey Victory Heights leaning post-war. Both see a steady mix of furnace tune-ups, heat pump retrofits, and air conditioning upgrades as owners add cooling.
New Westminster sits in the same coastal Lower Mainland climate as the rest of Metro Vancouver, with wet, cool winters and noticeably warmer summers. The city's position on the Fraser River keeps winter lows mild compared with the BC interior, which suits heat pump performance well.
Summer is the bigger change. New Westminster now regularly sees stretches in the high 20s and into the 30s, and the city's older heritage homes were never built with cooling in mind. A heat pump answers both sides of the year in one system - our most-requested upgrade across the Royal City.
In Queen's Park, Glenbrooke North, and Brow of the Hill, the work centres on heritage housing: original boilers, radiator and hydronic heating, aging furnaces, and the retrofit challenges of century-old structures, where a heat pump conversion or ductless system has to be planned around the home's layout and finishes.
In Downtown, Sapperton, and Uptown, the picture flips to strata HVAC: in-suite fan coils, split systems, and central plant equipment, with strata coordination and written documentation for strata records. Queensborough adds newer detached and townhouse homes on Lulu Island that often arrive with high-efficiency equipment.
Homeowners upgrading from fossil-fuel heating to a heat pump can pursue rebates through programs such as CleanBC, FortisBC, and the federal Canada Greener Homes initiative. We help make sure the paperwork your installer provides is complete.

Our commercial HVAC team services rooftop units, makeup air systems, and commercial boilers for offices, retail, and industrial tenants.
