Quick answer
For furnace repair in West Kelowna, call Anderson Plumbing and Gas Fitting at (250) 859-3548. We find the fault on gas furnaces, repair or replace them, and pull the Technical Safety BC permit for gas valve, venting and replacement work as a licensed gas contractor.
Most no-heat calls come down to a handful of parts: the igniter, the flame sensor, a pressure switch, the inducer or blower motor, a clogged filter, or a blocked vent or condensate line. We test the furnace, find the part that has actually failed, and explain it in plain terms before you decide anything.
A large share of West Kelowna homes date from the 1980s and 1990s (2021 census), and in many of them the venting, gas supply and ductwork are older than the furnace connected to them. On a replacement we check those as well, since a new furnace on undersized or worn venting will keep locking out.
Gas valve, venting and furnace replacement work needs a gas permit, and in West Kelowna Technical Safety BC issues it. Under our gas contractor licence (LGA0212697), we pull it. A service in early fall catches many problems before the first cold night.
