24/7 HVAC Service Burnaby

Around-the-Clock Reliable HVAC Service in Burnaby

When your heating or cooling quits, you want help fast — not a callback next week. BC Wide is based right here in Burnaby and provides fast same-day and after-hours HVAC service across the city, from the Heights and Brentwood to Metrotown, Edmonds, and Burnaby Mountain. Whether your furnace fails on a cold January night, your air conditioner gives out during a summer heat event, or a boiler stops mid-season, our team responds quickly to get your home comfortable again. This page covers what we service, the emergencies we handle most, what to expect from a service call, and how to reach us.

Full-Service HVAC for Burnaby Homes

BC Wide handles every part of a home’s comfort system, so you have one trusted local number for whatever comes up:

  • Air conditioning: repair, maintenance, and installation of central AC, ductless mini-splits, and heat pumps
  • Heating: furnaces, boilers, and heat pumps — diagnosis, repair, and replacement
  • Hot water: tank, tankless, and combi systems
  • Indoor air quality: filtration, smart thermostats, and ventilation
  • Maintenance: seasonal tune-ups that prevent breakdowns before they start

The Emergencies We Respond to Most

Burnaby’s climate puts real demands on home systems — damp, cool winters and increasingly warm summers. The urgent calls we see most often include:

ProblemWhat It Often MeansUrgency
No heat in winterIgnition, blower, or control faultHigh — book same-day
AC not cooling in a heat waveRefrigerant, capacitor, or fan issueHigh for vulnerable households
Burning or gas smellPossible electrical or gas faultUrgent — leave gas areas, call
Loud grinding or bangingMotor or component failureShut down; call promptly
Water leaking from the unitDrain blockage or condensate issuePrompt — prevent water damage
No hot waterElement, pilot, or valve faultSame-day service

If you ever smell gas, leave the home, avoid switches and open flames, and call us from outside.

Fast, Honest, Local Response

Because we’re a Burnaby company, our technicians know the city’s housing — the older homes with radiators and boilers in Burnaby Heights, the multi-level houses on the mountain, the townhome and condo stock around Metrotown and Brentwood. That local knowledge means faster diagnosis and fewer surprises. We arrive with common parts on the van so many problems are solved on the first visit, and we explain what’s wrong in plain language before any work begins. No scare tactics, no unnecessary part swaps — just a clear diagnosis and a fair price.

What to Expect From a Service Call

We aim to make an unwelcome breakdown as painless as possible:

  1. You call, we listen: describe the symptoms and we’ll advise on anything safe to check while we head over.
  2. Diagnosis first: our technician inspects the system and pinpoints the actual fault rather than guessing.
  3. Clear options: you get a straightforward explanation and a fair price before any repair proceeds.
  4. The fix: many issues are resolved on the spot with parts carried on the van; larger jobs are scheduled promptly.

Maintenance Prevents Most Emergencies

The best emergency is the one that never happens. Most no-heat and no-cool failures trace back to wear that a seasonal tune-up would have caught — a weak capacitor, a clogged filter starving airflow, a dirty flame sensor, or low refrigerant. Booking a furnace check in the fall and an AC check in the spring keeps your system running efficiently and dramatically lowers the odds of a breakdown at the worst possible moment. Maintenance also protects efficiency, which keeps your BC Hydro and FortisBC bills in check through Burnaby’s long heating season, and it helps your equipment reach its full service life.

Knowing When It’s an Emergency

Not every hiccup needs an after-hours call, but some absolutely do — and knowing the difference saves both worry and money. A furnace that won’t start on a freezing night, an air conditioner that quits during a heat warning when there are seniors, infants, or anyone vulnerable in the home, any smell of gas or burning, a unit making a loud grinding noise, or water actively leaking from equipment all warrant prompt attention. By contrast, a slightly noisy fan, a thermostat that needs new batteries, or a filter overdue for changing can usually wait for a scheduled visit.

When you do call, a quick description of what you’re seeing, hearing, or smelling helps our team arrive prepared with the right parts. If the situation involves gas, your safety comes first: leave the home, avoid switches and open flames, and call us once you’re safely outside. For everything else, our technicians will talk you through any safe step worth trying before we get there, then handle the rest on arrival.

One Local Team for Heating, Cooling, and Hot Water

Many Burnaby homeowners juggle separate companies for their furnace, air conditioner, and hot water — which means different numbers to call, different technicians who don’t know the home, and finger-pointing when a problem crosses systems. BC Wide is a single local team that handles all of it. When your heat pump doubles as both heating and cooling, or when a furnace and AC share the same ductwork and blower, having one contractor who understands the whole system makes diagnosis faster and repairs cleaner. It also means your maintenance history lives in one place, so we already know your equipment when you call.

That whole-home approach matters most during Burnaby’s temperature extremes. A summer heat event sends cooling demand soaring across the city at once, and a winter cold snap does the same for heating. Having a trusted local number — and a contractor who keeps common parts on the van — is what turns a stressful breakdown into a same-day fix. We serve homeowners throughout Burnaby and the surrounding Lower Mainland, and we treat every call with the urgency it deserves.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need air conditioning in Vancouver?
Vancouver summers have been getting hotter — the 2021 heat dome saw temperatures over 40°C. Most modern Vancouver homes now install a heat pump that provides both heating and cooling, replacing a furnace and avoiding the need for a separate A/C system.
How much does central A/C cost in Vancouver?
A typical 2.5–3 ton central air conditioner added to an existing forced-air furnace costs $5,500–$9,500 installed. A heat pump conversion (cooling + heating in one unit) is usually a smarter long-term investment given available rebates.
How often should A/C be serviced?
Annual servicing in spring keeps the outdoor coil clean, refrigerant charge correct, and the indoor evaporator coil and condensate drain clear. Skipping service is the single biggest cause of premature compressor failure.
