Kerrisdale's character homes — particularly those from the 1930s through 1950s — frequently have gas furnaces that were installed in the 1970s through 1990s and are now at or past end of life. HeatLand assesses these systems, repairs where repair is economical, and replaces where it isn't.
Furnace Repair in Kerrisdale
HeatLand’s licensed gas technicians diagnose furnace problems throughout Kerrisdale — from intermittent ignition failures and short-cycling to heat exchanger concerns and failed blower motors. We work on all major gas furnace brands and provide an honest repair-vs-replacement assessment before any work begins. No work proceeds without your approval and a clear written quote.
Furnace Replacement in Kerrisdale
When repair is no longer economical, HeatLand replaces gas furnaces in Kerrisdale with properly sized high-efficiency units — two-stage or modulating models that deliver more consistent comfort and lower gas bills than the single-stage furnaces common in older homes. We perform a heat load calculation for your home’s specific envelope, inspect existing ductwork for leaks or blockages, and manage all required permits and Safety Authority inspections.
HeatLand installs furnaces from leading manufacturers and can advise whether upgrading to a heat pump system at replacement time makes more long-term sense for your Kerrisdale home — especially with available BC CleanBC and FortisBC rebates.

FAQs — Furnace Service in Kerrisdale
How do I know if my Kerrisdale furnace needs replacement rather than repair?
Key signals: the furnace is more than 18–20 years old, repair quotes are exceeding $700–$1,000, you’ve had multiple repairs in the same season, or you’re seeing increasing energy bills without obvious cause. HeatLand will inspect and provide an honest repair-vs-replacement assessment — we never recommend replacement when repair makes sense.
What furnace efficiency rating should I choose for a Kerrisdale home?
For most Greater Vancouver homes, a mid-efficiency (80 AFUE) or high-efficiency (95+ AFUE) gas furnace are both practical. High-efficiency models require PVC condensate venting and produce condensate water — we assess your home’s venting and drainage before recommending. The efficiency gap between 80 and 95 AFUE may have a 5–8 year payback at current gas rates.
