Furnace service in Qualicum Beach
Can I get my furnace fixed in Qualicum Beach in the middle of winter?
Yes. A furnace doesn't pick a convenient day to quit, so we answer the phone all winter, every hour. You get the price before we start and a no-hassle warranty when we're done. Qualicum Beach lies along the Strait of Georgia on Vancouver Island's northeastern coast, in the shadow of Mount Arrowsmith. Homes here come under the Town of Qualicum Beach. Our crews work in Qualicum Beach and nearby Parksville and Errington. We work out of our shop at 1940 Boxwood Road in Nanaimo.
Signs your furnace needs a repair
- No heat, or not enough heat
- Running nonstop, or turning on and off every few minutes
- Energy bills climbing for no clear reason
- Some rooms always too hot or too cold
A yellow flame can mean the furnace isn't burning cleanly. Turn it off and call us. If you smell gas, go outside and call 911 or FortisBC at 1-800-663-9911.

Is a furnace membership plan worth it?
If your furnace is sound, a plan keeps it that way without you having to remember. Plans start at $19.99 a month and include one or two tune-ups a year, discounted repair rates and priority care.
Permits
Do I need a permit for furnace work in Qualicum Beach?
It depends on the job, and in Qualicum Beach the local rules come from the Town of Qualicum Beach. The Town of Qualicum Beach issues building permits, and work cannot start until the permit is issued. Gas work needs a Technical Safety BC gas permit taken out by a licensed gas contractor, and Norm's holds gas licence LGA000404. Rebate and permit details checked October 21, 2026. Programs change, so we confirm at your quote.
Every type
Can you fix an oil or electric furnace?
Yes. We repair and service gas, oil and electric furnaces, so you're not pushed into a conversion just because an older furnace needs a part. If you do want off oil, we can remove the oil tank and our gas fitters run the gas line, as one job.
Rebates
Could a heat pump rebate beat a new furnace in Qualicum Beach?
Before you replace a furnace, price a heat pump too, because it's the upgrade most rebates are built around. There's also a local program for Qualicum Beach, listed below. We confirm current amounts at your quote. Order matters: some programs need pre-approval before work starts. Financeit monthly payment options can cover what's left. Rebate and permit details checked October 21, 2026. Programs change, so we confirm at your quote.

Tune-up timing
When should I book a furnace tune-up?
In late summer or early fall, before the cold sets in. The first cold stretch is when a worn part gives out, after months of sitting still. A tune-up first means the part gets caught on your schedule.
Gas or electric
Natural gas or electric in Qualicum Beach?
FortisBC serves much of the Mid-Island, and whether gas reaches a home depends on the street, so we check your address at the quote. No gas on your street? We still service oil and electric furnaces, and a heat pump is the usual way off oil.

Todd Wilson is a gentelman who knows his business. He did a cvery thorough job of servicing my furnace as well as answering all my questions.
Adam and his crew did a first-class professional installation of our new heat exchanger for our furnace. They finished the work faster than estimated and recommended we add a small condensate pump for better operation. We appreciated their attention to detail and their cleanup of the work area.
