When the cold weather finally arrived in Burnaby, BC this year, my parents turned on their above-ground heating, and of course, it did not come on. We managed to get the pilot light lit, but the furnace would not come on. We first tried the usual AI route (lol) but eventually ended up Googling and finding these guys: Techno Gas Heating & Cooling Services Ltd. Understandably, many companies were busy with their clients and their furnaces that needed attention during this first cold night of the season, but Techno Gas Heating were willing to come late at night (around 8:00pm, I believe) to address our problem. They first diagnosed it as a HONEYWELL VR8300A4508 STANDING PILOT FURNACE GAS VALVE issue, but when replacing the valve didn’t fix it, it became a sensor issue with the heat ex-changer. Long story short: the furnace that circulated the water in the above-ground heating was old, as was the water tank (from 2015). After extensive discussion, and on Mike’s recommendation, we decided to replace both with a modern Navien NCB-240/130H high-efficiency condensing combi boiler (space heating + domestic hot water). By then, my parents were without heat for 5 days, so Techno Gas Heating came in on Thursday and after a day and a half had to entire thing replaced/installed. Competitively, I’m not sure how Techno Gas Heating stacks up in pricing against other HVAC companies (and there are many in a Google search), but I can tell you that their service was professional and they delivered as promised. In the end, I have nothing but praise for their work and would highly recommend their service to anyone in need of a good HVAC company. Great job guys!Posted on Google![]()
