Jeff from West Temp Heating and Cooling did an installation of a new propane furnace, air conditioning unit and a hot water tank. He and his crew did an excellent job. Very patient with us when explaining the relatively complicated thermostat. He will come back next year to do the yearly maintenance which includes a new Hepa furnace filter. Cleaned up after themselves. Totally awesome, very happy with Jeff and West Temp.

Do I need permits for gas installations in my home? Who handles the permitting process?
Gas permits are typically required to ensure that gas installations comply with safety and building codes.
A gas homeowner permit is required for many kinds of home alterations. This includes, but is not limited to:
installing or replacing all gas appliances such as a furnace, water heater, fireplace, boiler, range or cooktop;
installing or replacing gas piping or vent systems; and
installing built-in gas barbecues.
In Nanaimo, gas and electrical permits are issued by Technical Safety BC, and you can learn more about the process via their website.
The team at West Temp will be able to guide you through the permitting process (including applying for permits on your behalf), so the best thing to do is start by requesting a quote to discuss your specific needs.

How long will the installation take? What disruptions should I expect?
The answer to this question really depends on your specific project. We will provide an estimated timeline for the project and make sure you are well informed about any potential disruptions to your daily routine before work begins and schedule the job accordingly.

How do I know if there’s a gas leak in my home? What if I suspect one?
Signs of a gas leak include a rotten egg smell, hissing sounds, or dead plants. If you suspect a leak, leave the area, don’t use any devices, and call the FortisBC Emergency Line at 1-800-663-9911 (24 hours) or 911.

Can I install my own gas line for my BBQ?
While it is possible to install your own gas line for your BBQ, it is generally recommended that you hire a licensed professional to do the job.
