Tired of Power Outages in Your Fraser Valley Home?

A permanently installed home generator keeps your essential systems running when Fraser Valley storms knock out the power. Rep-Air Heating and Cooling is ready to provide the professional generator installation you need to keep your home powered.

Signs Your Fraser Valley Home Needs Backup Power

Frequent Power Outages
Do storms or grid issues regularly leave your home without electricity, sometimes for hours or days? This isn't just an annoyance; it means your home is vulnerable to the Fraser Valley's unpredictable weather and an aging grid.

Reliance on Critical Systems
Does your household depend on medical equipment, a well pump for water, or a crucial security system that can't afford to lose power? Interruption to these vital systems can compromise health, safety, or basic living functions for your family.

Concerns for Property and Comfort
Are you constantly stressed about your basement flooding during heavy rain or your food spoiling in the fridge when the lights go out? Losing power can lead to costly damage and significant discomfort, impacting your family's well-being.

Inconvenience of Portable Generators
Are you exhausted by dragging out a noisy, fuel-guzzling portable generator, fumbling with cords, and only powering a few essentials? Portable units are a temporary, labor-intensive fix that often fall short of real whole-home protection.

Why Fraser Valley Homes Need Reliable Backup Power

Unpredictable Weather and Aging Infrastructure
The Fraser Valley faces intense winter storms, high winds, and summer heatwaves that frequently strain and damage the electrical grid. This leads to widespread and often prolonged power outages, disrupting daily life for homeowners across the region.

Increased Reliance on Electrical Systems
Modern homes depend on continuous electricity for everything from efficient heating and cooling to internet, smart devices, and even electric vehicle charging. Losing power means losing much of your home's functionality, communication, and overall comfort.

Protecting Against Property Damage and Health Risks
A power outage can quickly lead to costly water damage or a complete loss of water supply, posing significant health and financial risks.

What to Expect During Your Generator Installation

When you choose Rep-Air Heating and Cooling for your generator installation, you're getting a comprehensive, professional service designed for peace of mind across the Fraser Valley. Our process is transparent and thorough, handled by our expert licensed electricians.

First, we start with a detailed consultation and site assessment. Our team will visit your home to understand your specific power needs, evaluate your existing electrical system, and identify the best location for your new generator. We'll discuss fuel options, natural gas or propane, and their implications for your property.

Next, we handle all the necessary permitting and compliance. Generator installation involves significant electrical and gas work, requiring adherence to strict safety codes. As a Technical Safety BC licensed contractor, we ensure all aspects of your installation meet provincial regulations and local bylaws, guaranteeing a safe and legal setup. Our WorkSafeBC compliance also means our team operates with the highest safety standards on your property.

Once the planning and permits are in place, our skilled technicians will prepare the site and install your generator. This involves laying a stable pad for the unit, running the necessary electrical wiring, including the crucial automatic transfer switch, and connecting to your home's fuel source. We take pride in clean, efficient workmanship, minimizing disruption to your property. We consider factors like noise levels and proximity to property lines to ensure the best placement for your home and neighbours. Finally, we rigorously test and commission your new generator. We'll run it through its paces, simulating a power outage to confirm that the automatic transfer switch engages correctly and that all specified circuits receive power as intended. We’ll walk you through its operation, maintenance requirements, and answer any questions you have, ensuring you're completely comfortable with your new system. We aim for you to feel confident that your home is protected, leveraging the latest in ENERGY STAR and CleanBC principles where applicable for efficient operation.

Before You Book

What does it cost, and what is covered?

How pricing works

A service visit is $189, and that fee is waived when you go ahead with the repair or installation we quote. Estimates for new equipment are free. Your technician diagnoses the problem first, shows you the readings and photos behind it, and gives you a written estimate, often with a few options, before touching anything. Work starts only when you approve it. Questions first? Call (778) 728-1956.

Repair or replace?

It comes down to the age of the equipment, the size of the repair, and how well the system is keeping up. Past roughly 12–15 years, a major repair usually costs more over the next few winters than replacing does, especially once rebates are counted. Your technician lays out both numbers and you decide.

What moves the price

  • How big the system is and how efficient you want it to be
  • Access, a tight crawlspace or a third-floor attic takes longer than a garage
  • Venting, gas, or electrical work the job triggers
  • Permits and inspection, where Technical Safety BC requires them
  • Which FortisBC and CleanBC rebates you qualify for

Financing runs from $1,000 to $100,000, so a big repair can be paid monthly too. See how financing works.

Warranty and workmanship

  • New installations: up to 12 years of parts and labour coverage. Conditions apply, including annual maintenance, which is what a maintenance plan is for.
  • Repairs: covered under the manufacturer's warranty on the part, traditionally around 12 months depending on the manufacturer and product.
  • No Lemon Guarantee: if we install a new unit and it keeps failing, we work with the manufacturer to replace the unit.
  • Workmanship: before we recommend replacing a part or a piece of equipment, you get detailed readings from industry specific meters, photos of any concerns, and a full written estimate for repair and for replacement based on the age and condition of the equipment.
  • We are registered with Technical Safety BC for gas work, WorkSafeBC compliant, and fully insured, and we pull permits where the work requires them.
  • Full details are on our warranty and workmanship page.
