Hydronic and combi boilers are common in older Lower Mainland homes — particularly in Vancouver, North Van, and West Van where in-floor radiant heat or cast-iron radiators are still in use. DirectBuy Furnace installs, replaces, and services residential boilers with TSBC-certified gas fitters and emergency response 24/7.
We diagnose boiler issues, replace failing units with high-efficiency condensing boilers (95%+ AFUE), install combi systems that handle both space heating and domestic hot water, and service existing systems for annual maintenance. Permits, inspections, and combustion analysis included.
Chilliwack specifics: Chilliwack summers regularly exceed 32°C; winters drop below -15°C in cold-snaps. AC is essential, heat pumps are the most cost-effective single-system answer for both. Cold-climate inverter units are the only safe spec for Chilliwack. Promontory and Eastern Hillsides homes need cold-climate heat pumps rated for -25°C. Sardis and Garrison Crossing typical homes are more straightforward.
