Heater Maintenance in Vancouver
Maintain Your Heating System with Quan Plumbing and Heating
Regular heater maintenance does more than keep equipment running. It protects the efficiency you paid for when you bought the system, extends its useful life, and reduces the chance of unexpected breakdowns during cold weather. A well-maintained furnace, boiler, or water heater is also less likely to develop the kinds of combustion or carbon monoxide concerns that can come with aging gas equipment.
We're fully licensed, bonded, and insured on every job. When you book heater maintenance with us, a licensed technician walks you through every finding before recommending a single repair, and any flat-rate options are presented before work begins.
Ready to schedule maintenance? Call (604) 210-6378 and we can book a visit with a licensed technician who can assess your system and answer your questions.
What Your Heater Maintenance Visit Includes
We service gas-fired furnaces, boilers, tank water heaters, and tankless systems from brands including Rheem, Bradford White, Navien, and Rinnai. Technical Safety BC recommends annual servicing for all gas heating appliances and notes that this work should only be done by a certified gas fitter employed by a licensed gas contractor. We meet both requirements.
Boiler and furnace maintenance typically includes:
- Heat exchanger inspection
- Burner and ignition system check
- Flue and venting assessment
- Filter condition review
- Thermostat calibration
- Carbon monoxide leak testing
Carbon monoxide is odorless and can build up when gas appliances aren't properly maintained. Annual servicing by a qualified gas fitter is one of the most reliable ways to catch these risks early.
Tank and tankless water heater maintenance typically includes:
- Anode rod inspection (tank units)
- Descaling and flushing for mineral buildup (tankless units)
- Pressure relief valve test
- Gas line integrity check
- Burner and ignition inspection
- Flue inspection for gas-fired models
Every visit starts with a full assessment. If we find anything that needs repair, we present each option at a flat rate before any work begins so you can approve the scope and cost upfront.
Transparent Pricing & Credentials You Can Check
We charge a $120 plus GST diagnostic fee to send a licensed technician to your home for a complete assessment. If you move forward with service, that fee is waived. From there, every repair option is quoted at a flat rate, so there are no surprise invoices after the fact.
This pricing model exists because we believe homeowners shouldn't have to guess what a visit will cost. You see the numbers before you decide, and you're never pressured to approve work you aren't comfortable with. We carry Red Seal certification in plumbing, and have a Gas ticket-certified technician on our team. Together, that means we're qualified to diagnose and service the full range of residential gas-fired heating equipment in your home.
Every job is backed by full licensing, bonding, and insurance. That accountability is the base of the long-term relationships we've built with homeowners across Metro Vancouver.
Heater Maintenance FAQ
How Often Should I Have My Heater Serviced?

Yes. According to Technical Safety BC, servicing and maintenance of gas appliances should only be carried out by a certified gas fitter employed by a licensed gas contractor. We are a fully licensed, bonded, and insured company, so your maintenance meets provincial requirements.
