Whether you are replacing an existing furnace or planning a heating system for a renovation or new build, Hippo Plumbing & Heating provides furnace installation in Coquitlam and across the Lower Mainland. We review the home's heating needs, existing equipment and site conditions before discussing suitable equipment and installation scope. Pricing, timing and model availability depend on the assessment and supplier stock.
A furnace replacement may involve reviewing the existing unit, ductwork, venting, gas and electrical connections, and thermostat. Furnace capacity should suit the home and heating system: an oversized unit may cycle frequently, while an undersized unit may struggle to meet demand. The proposed equipment, price and schedule are confirmed after an assessment.

The local details below come from the Burnaby service-area profile and help place this heating service in the context of the city’s homes and neighbourhoods.
Pre-war bungalows in North Burnaby often have galvanized water lines causing low pressure and rust-coloured water. Copper or PEX repipe restores clean, full-pressure water delivery and eliminates the corrosion problem.
Metrotown and Brentwood area highrise condos require licensed plumbers familiar with strata building systems — from suite repairs to risers, pressure-balancing valves, and common-area plumbing.
Burnaby's aging mid-rise rental buildings frequently rely on central boiler systems for heat and hot water. We service, repair, and replace commercial boilers for building managers throughout Burnaby.
North Burnaby's pre-war and wartime bungalows — many built in the 1940s and 1950s — are among the most plumbing-challenged properties we service. Original galvanized supply lines in these homes cause chronically low water pressure and rust-tinted water that won't improve until the pipes are replaced. Copper or PEX repipe permanently solves both problems and typically improves home resale value.
Metrotown and Brentwood are Burnaby's highrise hubs, with dozens of strata towers requiring licensed plumbers familiar with multi-unit building systems. From suite-level fixture replacements to pressure-balancing valve issues and common-area riser work, we coordinate directly with strata managers and property management companies to minimize disruption to residents.
Edmonds is a mid-century residential neighbourhood with housing predominantly from the 1960s and 1970s. Poly-B piping is present in the 1980s-built homes on the neighbourhood's eastern edge near New Westminster. We assess and replace Poly-B in Edmonds properties and also service the neighbourhood's older cast-iron drain lines that can crack and invite root intrusion over time.

Every job is handled by TSBC-licensed technicians using quality materials and equipment.
We review the existing furnace, heating needs, ductwork, venting and site conditions. Recommendations and any proposed changes depend on what the assessment finds.
Work may involve connections to ductwork, gas piping, electrical supply or a thermostat, depending on the selected equipment and existing system. The quote should identify the agreed work.
Ask what commissioning checks, operating instructions and equipment documents are included in the proposed installation scope.
Compare furnace efficiency ratings alongside equipment cost and expected use. Actual energy use depends on the home, settings, weather and utility rates; rebate programs and eligibility vary, so check current rules before purchase.
Compare available models by capacity, efficiency, warranty terms and parts support. Brand and model availability depends on current supplier stock.
Existing ductwork, venting and thermostat compatibility can affect the work required. Any proposed repairs, upgrades or controls should be included in the assessment and quote.
