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 Coquitlam service-area profile and help place this heating service in the context of the city’s homes and neighbourhoods.
Thousands of Coquitlam homes built before 1995 have polybutylene piping. These grey plastic pipes are prone to sudden failure and may affect your home insurance. We specialize in Poly-B assessment and full replacement throughout Coquitlam.
Coquitlam's mature neighbourhoods have well-established trees whose roots routinely find their way into aging sewer lines. Camera inspection confirms the cause; hydro-jetting removes the intrusion and restores full flow.
Westwood Plateau and other Coquitlam strata communities have shared boiler and hydronic heating systems. Our technicians service all makes and models found in Coquitlam's townhome market, coordinating with strata councils when needed.
Maillardville is one of Coquitlam's oldest neighbourhoods, with housing dating back to the early 1900s. Many homes here still have original or early galvanized water lines and cast-iron drain systems — we see pipe failures and discoloured water calls from Maillardville regularly. If your home was built before 1970, a pipe assessment is strongly recommended.
Burke Mountain is Coquitlam's fastest-growing area, with hundreds of new homes built since 2010. Plumbing issues here tend to be installation-related rather than age-related — fixture defects, pressure problems, and warranty repairs in newer builds. We work directly with homeowners and strata councils on new construction deficiency resolution.
Austin Heights homes are predominantly from the 1970s–1990s, placing them squarely in the Poly-B pipe era. We perform Poly-B assessments and full copper or PEX replacement throughout this neighbourhood — including the written confirmation letters most home insurers now require for coverage of Poly-B properties.

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.
