Kerrisdale’s upscale character homes and newer luxury builds each present distinct HVAC considerations — and HeatLand has the expertise to serve them all, from aging boilers in pre-war properties to high-efficiency heat pump upgrades in recently renovated homes.
HVAC in Kerrisdale Homes
Kerrisdale is one of Vancouver’s most pleasant family neighbourhoods — anchored by its walkable village, mature tree-lined streets, and a diverse housing stock ranging from 1920s through to contemporary luxury rebuilds. Older Kerrisdale homes often have hydronic boiler systems that have served reliably for decades but are increasingly approaching end of life. Many newer and recently renovated homes have high-efficiency gas furnaces or heat pump systems already installed.
As summer temperatures in Vancouver have become more pronounced in recent years, demand for cooling solutions in Kerrisdale has grown significantly. HeatLand installs ductless heat pump systems in character homes that lack existing ductwork — providing year-round comfort with a single system and taking advantage of available BC rebate programs.
