Maple Furnace serves Port Moody, BC from our Burnaby shop on Merritt Ave, a short run east along the inlet. Part of the Tri-Cities alongside Coquitlam and Port Coquitlam, Port Moody pairs older character homes near the water with newer subdivisions climbing the slopes, and that mix of housing and elevation shapes our furnace, heat pump, air conditioner, boiler, water heater, and gas fireplace work.
Port Moody, known as the City of the Arts, is a compact city built around the eastern tip of Burrard Inlet. Its housing runs from newer hillside homes in Heritage Mountain and Heritage Woods, well above sea level, to older character stock in Moody Centre and Ioco and condos near the Evergreen SkyTrain stations with fan coils and ductless systems. We work with homeowners, tenants, and strata property managers across the city.
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 Port Moody businesses.

Port Moody is small enough to know well, and the housing changes noticeably as you move from the inlet up the slopes.
A higher-elevation neighbourhood of newer detached homes and townhouses above the inlet, where work leans toward annual tune-ups, warranty-period service, and cooling upgrades. Winter lows run a touch colder than the waterfront, which we factor into heat pump sizing.
One of Port Moody's newest areas, set into the forested hillside. New construction usually arrives with modern high-efficiency equipment, so we handle seasonal maintenance, repairs, and indoor air quality add-ons like high-MERV filtration and HRV/ERV systems for tightly sealed homes.
An established neighbourhood of mature single-family homes on the city's eastern side, where many aging furnaces are strong candidates for heat pump retrofits. We also handle water heater replacements and gas fireplace service here.
A quiet post-war neighbourhood near the Burnaby boundary, where mid-century homes often run mid-efficiency furnaces and aging ductwork - a good fit for furnace replacements, duct cleaning, and heat pump conversions. Close to our Burnaby shop, calls placed early in the day are usually seen the same day.
The historic heart of Port Moody near the water and the West Coast Express and SkyTrain stations, where older character homes often carry hydronic boilers, original water heaters, and gas fireplaces. We service those systems and coordinate with strata managers for the newer inlet-side condos.
A historic enclave on the north shore of the inlet, where older character homes often run aging furnaces or boilers that benefit from annual servicing. We give straight answers on repair versus replace before any equipment is ordered.
A largely residential area along the inlet toward Belcarra, where heat pump and AC installations are increasingly common. For homes closest to the shoreline, we pay attention to outdoor equipment siting and corrosion resistance.
A hillside neighbourhood above Moody Centre, where most homes run modern high-efficiency equipment. We handle routine maintenance, repairs, cooling upgrades, and water heater replacements as first-generation equipment ages out.
Port Moody sits at the head of Burrard Inlet in the coastal Lower Mainland climate: wet, cool winters and noticeably warmer summers. Winter lows are mild compared with the BC interior, so a properly sized heat pump rarely faces deep cold that strains its heating output. The one wrinkle is elevation, covered below.
Summers now regularly reach the high 20s and into the 30s, and many older homes near the inlet were never built with cooling in mind, so demand for AC and heat pump installations runs steady in the warmer months. A heat pump covers both seasons in one system and is our most-requested upgrade across the Tri-Cities.
Port Moody's defining feature for HVAC work is its vertical range. Moody Centre and Ioco sit close to sea level, while Heritage Mountain, Heritage Woods, and Mountain Meadows climb well up the slopes above the inlet, so winter lows and wind exposure differ, and a heat pump sized for an inlet-level character home can be undersized for a hillside home of the same size.
We run a Manual J heat-loss calculation and look closely at outdoor unit placement. Higher-elevation homes benefit from cold-climate heat pump models with strong low-temperature performance; inlet-side homes get corrosion-resistant siting near the salt air.
Port Moody's housing splits cleanly into two kinds of work. On Heritage Mountain, in Heritage Woods, and across Mountain Meadows, most housing is recent construction, so the work leans toward maintenance, warranty-period service, cooling add-ons, and indoor air quality upgrades.
In Moody Centre, Ioco, and the older pockets of College Park and Glenayre, many homes still run mid-efficiency furnaces, hydronic boilers, original water heaters, and aging ductwork - the homes where a heat pump conversion makes the biggest difference. We measure heat loss, check electrical capacity, and walk through the options before any equipment is ordered.
Port Moody homeowners upgrading from fossil-fuel heating to a heat pump can pursue rebates through CleanBC, FortisBC, and the federal Canada Greener Homes initiative. The amount depends on the equipment, your existing fuel source, and qualification details, and we help make sure your installer's paperwork is complete.
Contact Us to SchedulePort Moody's commercial base centres on the shops, breweries, and restaurants of Moody Centre and Newport Village, plus offices and retail near the SkyTrain. Our commercial HVAC team services rooftop units, makeup air systems, and commercial boilers.
For restaurants, breweries, and grocery operators, we also handle commercial refrigeration - walk-in coolers, freezers, and ice machines - so food-service equipment keeps running through the busiest hours.
