Red Seal CertifiedWhat System Are You Replacing in Victoria?
A ducted heat pump replaces your existing furnace, boiler, or baseboard system with a single whole-home unit. Every home has a different starting point — here's how a centrally ducted heat pump fits yours.
Gas Furnace → Ducted Heat Pump
FortisBC serves parts of Greater Victoria. Your existing gas furnace ductwork is ready for conversion. In Victoria's mild climate, the heat pump runs at peak efficiency virtually all winter.
Oil Furnace → Ducted Heat Pump
Some Victoria heritage homes still use oil. A ducted heat pump eliminates oil dependency and adds cooling — increasingly essential after Victoria's experience with the 2021 heat dome.
Electric Baseboard → Ducted Heat Pump
Electric baseboard is common in older Victoria homes and condos. Ductwork installation is needed, but the efficiency gains are exceptionally strong in Victoria's mild climate.
Gas Furnace + AC → Single System
Replace both units with one efficient system. Victoria's mild climate means exceptional year-round efficiency from a single ducted heat pump.
Why Do Victoria Homeowners Choose Ducted Heat Pumps?
Ducted heat pumps deliver up to 60% energy savings over traditional heating by using your existing ductwork with cold-climate technology rated to -30°C.
Victoria has Canada's mildest winter climate, with only about 2,600–2,800 heating degree days and roughly 15 frost days per year. This means ducted heat pumps operate at peak efficiency virtually all winter. The 2021 heat dome changed Victoria's cooling calculus — AC is no longer optional. A ducted heat pump provides both heating and cooling perfectly for this climate.
Victoria Climate Challenges
- 1Canada's mildest winter but increasingly hot summer events (2021 heat dome)
- 2Mix of heritage homes (no ductwork) and gas-heated suburban homes
- 3Natural gas, electric baseboard, and oil heating all represented in the housing stock
- 4Heritage Victoria and Edwardian homes may have limited space for ductwork
- 5Cooling was historically considered unnecessary — the 2021 heat dome changed that
How Ducted Heat Pumps Help
- Canada's mildest climate means heat pumps run at absolute peak efficiency all winter
- One system provides both heating and the cooling Victoria now needs for heat events
- Suburban homes in Langford, Colwood, and Sooke commonly have gas furnace ductwork
- Lower energy costs year-round — exceptional COP in Victoria's mild temperatures
- Short heating season means lower total energy costs than anywhere else in Canada

"I ONLY WISH THEY INSTALLED OUR HEAT PUMP ORIGINALLY"
Great company to deal with. We hired them to move an existing heat pump after the original installer refused to help us. The estimator and the installer were both very polite, careful and thorough. I only wish they installed our heat pump originally. I would hire them again without hesitation.

"WHEN THEY LEFT THE HOUSE THERE WAS NO MESS TO CLEAN UP!"
The young chaps, Marlon Marcuflo and Sylvia Richard, were wonderful to deal with. They were extremely polite, very tidy and efficient in their work, were right on schedule and did an excellent job. When they left the house there was no mess to clean up. I would recommend Greenfoot Energy Solutions to anyone thinking of upgrading their home.

The Greenfoot Team did amazing work in our home. Our old house (built in 1959) feels like a brand new construction thanks to the ductless heat pumps, spray foam insulation and HVAC installed by the friendliest staff! Everyone we spoke to from Greenfoot was helpful and just seemed genuinely happy in their job.
