About West Coast Geothermal
Geothermal and Water-Source Heat Pump Specialists in British Columbia
West Coast Geothermal helps homeowners, strata owners, builders, commercial clients, and institutional projects install, service, troubleshoot, repair, and replace geothermal and water-source heat pump systems.
Based in the Lower Mainland, we serve clients across Metro Vancouver, the Fraser Valley, and select communities throughout British Columbia.
Built Around Specialized Geothermal Knowledge
West Coast Geothermal was founded because geothermal and water-source heat pump systems require specialized knowledge. These systems are different from standard heating and cooling installations, and they need experienced professionals who understand ground loops, water loops, refrigeration, hydronics, controls, equipment selection, and long-term system performance.
Since 2008, our focus has been helping clients get reliable heating and cooling from systems that are designed, installed, serviced, and repaired properly.
Why Experience Matters
Geothermal systems are highly efficient, but they are also technical. A poorly selected, poorly installed, or poorly maintained system can create problems that are expensive and frustrating to fix.
Our role is to help clients understand their options clearly, avoid guesswork, and make practical decisions about service, repair, replacement, or new installation.
What We Do
We work with geothermal, water-source heat pump, and hydronic systems across residential, strata, commercial, and institutional applications.
Residential Geothermal
New geothermal installations, retrofits, service, troubleshooting, and replacement planning for homeowners.
Condo & Strata Heat Pumps
Water-source heat pump health checks, repair advice, second opinions, and replacement options for condo and strata owners.
Commercial Systems
Geothermal and water-source solutions for commercial buildings, mechanical rooms, larger systems, and long-term infrastructure.
Institutional Projects
Efficient heating and cooling systems for schools, community buildings, First Nations facilities, and public-sector projects.
Repair, Troubleshooting, and Replacement Advice
Not every system needs to be replaced. In many cases, the right service or repair can keep a geothermal or water-source heat pump operating reliably.
In other cases, especially with aging equipment, repeated failures, poor parts support, or expensive refrigeration issues, replacement may be the better long-term decision.
We help clients understand the condition of their system, what the repair options are, and when replacement should be considered.
Our Practical Approach
- Inspect and understand the system before recommending a solution
- Explain repair, maintenance, and replacement options clearly
- Help clients avoid unnecessary replacement when repair makes sense
- Help clients avoid repeated costly repairs when replacement is the smarter option
- Recommend equipment based on the application, not just the brand name
Geothermal Is a Heat Pump — With a Better Energy Source
A geothermal heat pump works on the same basic principle as other heat pumps. The difference is the source of energy.
Air-source heat pumps use outdoor air as the energy source. Geothermal and water-source systems use the more stable temperature of the ground, water, or building loop. That stable source can help deliver reliable heating and cooling performance, even when outdoor temperatures change.
For the right home, building, or project, geothermal can provide excellent long-term comfort, efficiency, and operating cost advantages.
Look Beyond Upfront Cost
Air-source heat pumps can be a practical option for many homes. Geothermal systems usually cost more upfront, but they may offer stronger long-term operating savings, especially for larger homes, custom builds, commercial buildings, and projects where long-term efficiency matters.
We help clients compare options honestly so they can choose the system that makes the most sense for their property, budget, and long-term plans.

Training, Certification, and Field Experience
Our team brings together geothermal training, refrigeration knowledge, hydronic system experience, manufacturer support, and real field experience.
We work with recognized geothermal, HVAC, and trade training standards and apply that knowledge on residential, strata, commercial, and institutional projects.
Certification and manufacturer support can vary by product line and project type. We are happy to explain what applies to your specific system or installation.
A Clear, Honest Process
We believe clients deserve clear explanations, practical recommendations, and fair advice.
Whether you are planning a new geothermal system, trying to repair an existing unit, or deciding whether replacement makes sense, we help you understand the options before you make a decision.
Who We Help
Different clients have different needs. Our job is to help identify the right path forward.
Homeowners
For homeowners planning a new geothermal system, replacing an older system, or troubleshooting heating and cooling problems.
Condo & Strata Owners
For owners with aging in-suite water-source heat pumps who need service, a health check, a second opinion, or replacement planning.
Builders & Developers
For projects where long-term efficiency, system design, equipment selection, and installation planning matter from the beginning.
Commercial & Institutional Clients
For larger buildings, community facilities, schools, First Nations projects, and commercial properties looking for efficient heating and cooling solutions.
Not Sure What Kind of System You Have?
Many homeowners and condo owners are not sure whether they have a geothermal system, water-source heat pump, hydronic system, or another type of heating and cooling equipment. That is normal. We can help you identify the system and understand your options.
