Heat pumps are reliable but when they fail they need someone who actually understands inverter-driven systems — not a generic HVAC tech guessing at error codes. DirectBuy Furnace runs same-day heat pump repair across the Lower Mainland with techs trained on Mitsubishi, Daikin, LG, Trane, Carrier, Lennox, and Fujitsu inverter platforms.
We pull error codes off the control board, test the inverter, refrigerant pressures, and reversing valve operation, identify the failure, and quote the repair before starting work. Heat pumps under warranty get the warranty claim filed for you. Where the failure is terminal we lay out the math on repair vs. replacement — and which BC Hydro rebates apply to a new install.
North Vancouver specifics: North Van runs colder than the south side of the inlet — Lynn Valley and the canyon areas can drop to -10°C in winter, well within the operational range of cold-climate inverter heat pumps but outside the comfort zone for budget units. Steep North Shore lots sometimes complicate condenser placement. We do site visits before quoting on hillside properties.
