CleanBC Rebate-Eligible Heat Pump Installations
A central ducted heat pump provides both heating and cooling from a single outdoor unit, making it the most versatile HVAC option for Surrey's mild winters and increasingly hot summers. For homeowners with an existing gas furnace in good condition, a hybrid dual-fuel setup pairs the heat pump with the furnace so the heat pump handles the majority of heating at high efficiency while the furnace provides backup during the coldest stretches. Eaton's Heating provides heat pump installation across all Surrey neighborhoods from our Coquitlam base. We are an authorized Trane dealer and FortisBC Trade Ally. CleanBC and FortisBC rebates can significantly offset the upfront cost. Free written estimates and flexible financing through Financeit with zero percent interest over 12 months.

Heat pump installations have surged across Surrey in recent years, driven by provincial CleanBC incentives and summers that now regularly push into the high 30s. A central ducted heat pump connects to your existing ductwork and provides both heating and cooling, replacing or supplementing a traditional furnace and standalone air conditioner. For many Surrey homes, this means getting year-round comfort from a single system while qualifying for rebates that can offset thousands of dollars of the upfront cost.
The most common installation scenario in Surrey is a hybrid dual-fuel setup. Homeowners in Newton, Fleetwood, and Fraser Heights who have a gas furnace in good condition can add a heat pump as the primary heating and cooling source while keeping the furnace as backup for the coldest days. The system automatically switches between the heat pump and furnace based on outdoor temperature, running the heat pump for roughly 90 percent of the year and the furnace only when temperatures drop below the heat pump's efficient operating range. This provides the energy savings of a heat pump without sacrificing the reliability of gas backup. South Surrey and Panorama Ridge homes without existing air conditioning benefit the most from this approach because they gain cooling capacity they did not have before.
Eaton's Heating is the only authorized Trane dealer in Coquitlam, and we install Trane's full central heat pump lineup across Surrey. The Trane XV18 variable-speed heat pump is our premium option, providing the highest efficiency and quietest operation. The XV19 and XV17 offer similar performance at different price points. The Trane XR15 and XR14 are reliable mid-range options for homeowners who want proven Trane engineering without the variable-speed premium. For budget-conscious installations, the RunTru A5HP4 by Trane delivers solid performance at a lower price point, and the KeepRite QuietComfort DERA series offers a competitive alternative. Every heat pump is paired with a matched indoor coil sized to the outdoor unit for peak efficiency.
We are a FortisBC Trade Ally, BBB A+ rated, and Technical Safety BC licensed under LGA0200006 with over 20 years of heat pump installation experience across Greater Vancouver. Our 400+ five-star Google reviews and 4.9 average rating reflect properly sized, properly commissioned installations that perform as promised. We size every heat pump to the home's actual heating and cooling load using manual load calculations, factoring in square footage, insulation, window exposure, and ductwork capacity. An oversized heat pump short-cycles and wastes energy. An undersized unit runs constantly without reaching temperature on the hottest or coldest days.
On installation day, we set the outdoor unit on a proper base, run the refrigerant line set and electrical connections, install the matched indoor coil, configure drainage, and connect to existing ductwork. For hybrid dual-fuel setups, we integrate the heat pump controls with the existing furnace so the system switches automatically based on outdoor temperature. We charge the system to manufacturer specifications, configure defrost settings for our local climate, register factory warranties, and walk you through operation. Most installations are completed in one to two days. If your existing heat pump needs repair rather than replacement, we provide honest guidance on which option makes more financial sense.
Surrey's housing diversity means heat pump installations vary significantly by neighborhood. Larger detached homes in Sullivan, Bear Creek, and Panorama Ridge typically need higher-capacity systems and may require electrical panel upgrades to support the heat pump's power draw. Cloverdale and Grandview Heights new builds often have modern electrical panels and ductwork already designed for heat pump integration. Whalley and Guildford homes with older ductwork may need inspection and modification to ensure proper airflow before the heat pump goes in. We evaluate every Surrey home's ductwork, electrical capacity, and insulation during the free assessment and include any required upgrades in the written estimate.
Surrey homeowners considering a heat pump should also explore available rebates. CleanBC and FortisBC programs offer significant incentives on qualifying heat pump installations, and as a FortisBC Trade Ally, Eaton's Heating helps with the rebate paperwork as part of our service. Visit our rebates page for the latest information on active programs and eligibility requirements. For homeowners who prefer a furnace-only solution, we also install high-efficiency furnaces across Surrey.

A hybrid dual-fuel system pairs a heat pump with an existing gas furnace. The heat pump handles heating and cooling for roughly 90 percent of the year, switching to the gas furnace only when outdoor temperatures drop below the heat pump's efficient operating range. The system switches automatically based on a balance point you set with your thermostat. This gives you the energy savings and cooling capacity of a heat pump with the reliability of gas backup during the coldest stretches. It is the most popular heat pump installation configuration in Surrey homes that already have a functioning furnace.
Yes. Modern cold-climate heat pumps can handle Surrey's winters as the sole heating source in most homes. However, many Surrey homeowners prefer the hybrid dual-fuel approach because it preserves the existing furnace as backup and avoids the cost of removing a working system. If your furnace is at end of life and needs replacement anyway, installing a heat pump as the sole heating and cooling system eliminates the gas furnace entirely. We discuss both approaches during your free assessment and help you compare the total cost and energy savings of each.
Correct sizing depends on your home's square footage, insulation quality, window area and orientation, ceiling height, and ductwork capacity. We perform a manual load calculation during the free assessment to determine the exact heating and cooling capacity your home needs. This prevents oversizing, which causes short-cycling, poor humidity control, and wasted energy, and undersizing, which leaves your home uncomfortable on the hottest and coldest days. A typical 2,000 to 2,500 square foot Surrey home usually needs a 3 to 4 ton system, but this varies significantly based on the home's specific characteristics.
Heat pump installation in Surrey typically ranges from $7,000 to $12,000 before rebates, depending on the equipment selected, whether it is a new installation or replacement, and whether electrical panel or ductwork upgrades are needed. CleanBC and FortisBC rebates can offset a significant portion of this cost on qualifying installations. We provide free written estimates that break down all costs clearly and outline applicable rebates so you see the net price. Flexible financing through Financeit with zero percent interest over 12 months.
CleanBC and FortisBC offer rebates on qualifying heat pump installations that can significantly reduce the upfront cost. Rebate amounts and eligibility requirements change periodically based on the program, the type of heat pump installed, and whether it replaces an existing fossil fuel heating system. As a FortisBC Trade Ally, Eaton's Heating stays current on all active programs and helps with the paperwork as part of our service. We outline applicable rebates in your written estimate. Visit our rebates page for the latest information.
Yes. Many heat pump installations require a dedicated electrical circuit and sometimes a panel upgrade to support the system's power requirements. We assess your electrical panel capacity during the free in-home assessment and include any required electrical work in the written estimate. All electrical work is completed by a certified electrician as part of the installation.
