Maple Furnace serves Surrey, BC from our Burnaby shop on Merritt Ave, dispatching south across the Fraser to one of the fastest-growing cities in Canada. Surrey spans a wide mix of housing, from brand-new subdivisions in South Surrey and Grandview Heights to older post-war homes in Whalley and Newton, and that variety is exactly what shapes the furnace, heat pump, air conditioner, boiler, water heater, and gas fireplace work we do here.
Surrey is built around several distinct town centres rather than one downtown core, and each one has its own character. Newer detached homes, townhouse complexes, and condo strata buildings cluster around City Centre, Guildford, and Grandview Heights, where high-efficiency furnaces and heat pumps are the norm. Older single-family stock in Whalley, Newton, and parts of Fleetwood often still runs mid-efficiency gas furnaces that are strong candidates for heat pump retrofits. Acreage and larger lots in Cloverdale and Panorama Ridge bring longer service runs and a mix of furnace and boiler systems. We service all of it, working 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 Surrey businesses.

Surrey is large enough that each town centre feels like its own community, and the housing stock changes noticeably from one to the next. Our technicians know how to match the right approach to each area's homes.
A busy northeast town centre anchored by the Guildford Town Centre mall and the surrounding residential streets. The area mixes established single-family homes from earlier decades with newer townhouse and condo developments closer to the centre. Furnace tune-ups, heat pump conversions, and water heater replacements are the most common calls here, and the range of housing ages means our technicians are comfortable moving between older and newer systems in the same neighbourhood.
One of Surrey's largest and most established residential areas, spread across a wide grid of single-family streets. Many homes still run mid-efficiency gas furnaces and are strong candidates for heat pump retrofits as owners look to add cooling and lower their heating costs. We also handle plenty of boiler and gas fireplace service in Newton's older housing stock, along with duct cleaning for homes whose ductwork has not been touched in years.
A mix of mature single-family neighbourhoods and newer infill near the developing SkyTrain corridor along Fraser Highway. We service everything from aging furnaces nearing the end of their lifespan to recently installed high-efficiency systems that need their first round of routine maintenance. The variety here keeps our scheduling flexible, and calls placed early in the day are usually seen the same day.
Historic town centre with a blend of heritage homes, newer subdivisions, and acreage toward the east. Larger lots can mean longer service runs and equipment placed farther from the road, and we see a mix of furnace and hydronic boiler systems here. Older homes in the village core sometimes carry original boilers that benefit from annual servicing rather than premature replacement.
Surrey's high-density core around Surrey Central and King George stations. High-rise condos with in-suite fan coils, split systems, and central plant equipment dominate the towers, alongside older single-family homes on the surrounding streets. We coordinate with strata managers when access through common areas is required and provide the documentation strata records call for.
Newer detached homes, townhouses, and estate lots toward the U.S. border and the ocean. Most homes here were built with high-efficiency furnaces or heat pumps in mind, and the work leans toward service, tune-ups, and aftermarket cooling upgrades. Proximity to the water means we pay attention to outdoor equipment siting and corrosion resistance for homes closest to the shoreline.
One of Surrey's fastest-growing areas, with extensive new subdivisions and townhome complexes still being built out. New construction here usually arrives with heat pumps or high-efficiency gas systems already installed, and we provide warranty-period service, seasonal maintenance, and indoor air quality add-ons such as high-MERV filtration and HRV/ERV systems for tightly sealed modern homes.
Established residential area on the rise overlooking the Serpentine lowlands. Larger detached homes with a mix of furnace and heat pump systems are typical, and air conditioning and heat pump installations are increasingly common as owners add cooling for the warmer summers the Lower Mainland now sees.
A growing area of newer subdivisions and townhouse complexes in south-central Surrey. Most homes run modern high-efficiency equipment, and we handle routine maintenance, repairs, and cooling upgrades, along with water heater replacements as the first generation of equipment in these homes reaches the end of its service life.
Surrey sits in the same coastal Lower Mainland climate as the rest of Metro Vancouver, with wet, cool winters and summers that have grown noticeably warmer over recent years. Winter lows are mild compared with the BC interior, which is good news for heat pump performance: a properly sized system rarely faces the kind of deep cold that strains its heating output, so seasonal efficiency stays high across most of the city.
The flip side is summer. Surrey now regularly sees stretches in the high 20s and into the 30s, and many older homes were never built with cooling in mind. That is why we see steady demand for air conditioning and heat pump installations through the warmer months, particularly in the inland town centres of Newton, Fleetwood, and Cloverdale that sit away from the cooling ocean breeze. A heat pump answers both sides of the year in one system, which is part of why it has become our most-requested upgrade across Surrey.
Surrey's rapid growth means our technicians move between two very different kinds of work in a single day. In South Surrey, Grandview Heights, and Clayton, much of the housing is recent construction built with high-efficiency furnaces or heat pumps already in place. The work there leans toward maintenance, warranty-period service, cooling add-ons, and indoor air quality upgrades for tightly sealed modern homes.
In Whalley, Newton, and the older pockets of Fleetwood, the picture is different. Many of these homes still run mid-efficiency gas furnaces, original water heaters, and aging ductwork. These are the homes where a heat pump conversion can make the biggest difference, and where careful retrofitting matters most. We measure heat loss, check electrical service capacity, and walk through the options before any equipment is ordered.
Surrey 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. The amount that applies depends on the equipment, your existing fuel source, and qualification details, and we help make sure the paperwork your installer provides is complete.
Surrey's commercial base has grown alongside its population, from the retail centres in Guildford and City Centre to the light-industrial corridors around Newton and Port Kells. Our commercial HVAC team services rooftop units, makeup air systems, and commercial boilers for offices, retail, and industrial tenants.
For restaurants and grocery operators across Surrey's town centres, we also handle commercial refrigeration - walk-in coolers, freezers, and ice machines - so food-service equipment keeps running through the busiest hours.
Yes. We dispatch to Surrey daily from our Merritt Ave shop in Burnaby. For no-heat and no-cooling situations, 24/7 emergency service is available year-round, and we schedule routine appointments across Guildford, Newton, Fleetwood, Cloverdale, and South Surrey throughout the week.
For most Surrey homes, yes. A heat pump provides heating in winter and cooling in summer from one system, and Surrey's relatively mild Lower Mainland winters suit heat pump performance well. Viability depends on your ductwork and electrical service, which we confirm during a free in-home assessment.
In most cases, yes. Older Surrey homes often run mid-efficiency gas furnaces that are good candidates for conversion. We measure heat loss, check your existing ductwork and electrical capacity, and explain the options before recommending a system.
Yes. We work with in-suite fan coils, ductless mini-splits, split systems, and tankless water heaters in Surrey condos and townhouses, coordinate with strata managers for common-area access, and provide written reports for strata records.
