Heating Repair, Maintenance & Installation Across Vancouver and the Lower Mainland
When your heat goes out in the middle of a Vancouver winter, you need someone who shows up fast and fixes it right the first time. Pioneer Plumbing and Heating has been keeping Vancouver homes and businesses warm since 1976, nearly 50 years serving the Lower Mainland.
We work on every kind of heating system: forced-air furnaces, heat pumps, boilers, and the gas lines and appliances that feed them. Whether you're a homeowner with a furnace that won't start, a building manager overseeing a boiler system, or a business owner planning a commercial HVAC upgrade, our licensed technicians have the experience to get it done.
Call (604) 872-4946 any time. We're available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for heating emergencies.
Explore our Heating Services
Heating systems come in a few different types, and the right fix depends on which one you have.
- If you have a furnace that's making noise, running constantly, or not heating evenly, start with Furnace Repair.
- If you want one system that heats in winter and cools in summer, or you're looking to upgrade with rebates available, see Heat Pumps.
- If your home or building has radiators or in-floor hot water heat, especially in an older Vancouver home or a strata building, that's a boiler system.
- If you manage a commercial property, strata building, or business, see Commercial Heating for service built around that scale.
- If you need a gas line, gas fireplace, or gas appliance installed or repaired, that's Natural Gas Service, which by law has to be handled by a licensed gas fitter.

Furnace Repair, Maintenance & Installation
Forced-air furnaces are the most common heating system in Vancouver homes. We repair, tune up, and install furnaces of every major brand, gas and electric, and diagnose everything from a failed igniter to a furnace that's short-cycling.
Heat Pumps: Heating and Cooling in One System
Heat pumps have become one of the most popular upgrades in Vancouver, largely because BC Hydro and FortisBC rebates have made them more affordable, and because one system handles both winter heat and summer cooling. We install, service, and repair air source and split system heat pumps for homes and light commercial spaces.
Boiler Repair & Installation
Many of Vancouver's older homes and strata buildings rely on boilers rather than forced air, radiators or in-floor hydronic heat run off a central boiler. We service gas-fired, steam, and combination boiler systems from every major brand, including Amtrol, Bradford White, IBC, Navien, NTI, Rheem, Super Hot, Triangle Tube, and Viessmann, and we handle full boiler replacement when a system reaches the end of its life.

Commercial Heating & HVAC
Commercial heating systems carry more weight, literally and financially, than a residential furnace. We work with strata councils, property managers, and business owners on rooftop units, multi-zone HVAC, and radiant tube heating for garages, warehouses, and industrial space.
Natural Gas Installation & Repair
Gas appliances have to be installed and repaired by a licensed gas fitter. That's a BC building code requirement, not just good practice. We install and service gas furnaces, fireplaces, ranges, water heaters, and BBQ hookups for homes and businesses across Vancouver.

How do I know if I need furnace, heat pump, or boiler service?
It depends on the system you already have. If you have ductwork and vents, you likely have a furnace or a heat pump. If you have radiators or in-floor heat with no vents, you likely have a boiler. If you're not sure, describe your system when you call and we'll point you to the right service.
