What type of HVAC system is best for new construction homes in Vancouver?

It depends on the home's layout, insulation, and heating/cooling goals. Most new homes in Vancouver benefit from ducted heat pumps due to the temperate climate of Vancouver and new BC Building Code insulation code requirements. New Vancouver homes actually need a heat pump (ducted or ductless) as the primary heating source.

When should HVAC rough-in happen during construction?

HVAC rough-in typically occurs after framing and before insulation. We coordinate with your builder to ensure everything is installed at the proper stage.

How do you determine the right size HVAC system for my new build?

We perform a full load calculation based on square footage, insulation, orientation, and climate data to properly size the system. We complete our load calculations using approved F280 heat loss/gain software.

Can you work with my architect or builder?

Absolutely. We collaborate directly with your design or construction team to align HVAC design with your floor plan, aesthetic, and energy goals.

Do I need a permit for new construction HVAC in Vancouver?

Yes. All HVAC installs require proper city permits and inspections. Penguin HVAC handles the permit process to keep your project compliant and on track.
