Mobile & Modular Home Heating & Cooling in Prince George, BC

The correct size depends on your home's square footage, insulation, and design. A 14×70 single-wide typically needs a 60,000–80,000 BTU furnace, while a 16×80 double-wide may need 80,000–120,000 BTU. Oversizing wastes energy and cycles the burner too often. We measure your home and calculate the exact load before recommending equipment. This consultation is free and takes about 30 minutes.

Yes, but not every furnace fits. Manufactured homes need compact, horizontally-oriented units or vertical units that fit in your home's utility space. We source equipment from Armstrong Air and other manufacturers that specialize in or offer models for mobile and modular housing. Traditional downflow furnaces designed for house basements won't fit and aren't the right choice.

Mobile home furnaces are often more compact, designed to operate on the electrical and gas capacity typical of manufactured homes (100–150 amps, single-phase power). They're built to handle vibration and foundation movement. Standard residential furnaces are often larger and assume more abundant space and power. We only install equipment rated for residential use that meets or exceeds your home's specifications.

Absolutely. Many older mobile homes were built without AC. We can install a mini-split ductless system (which needs no new ductwork and sits on an interior wall or external bracket) or add central AC ducting if your furnace can accommodate it. Mini-splits are popular because they're efficient, quiet, and require minimal installation disruption.

For a furnace, heat pump, or tankless water heater in BC, you need a Technical Safety BC permit if gas work is involved. We handle the permit process, schedule the inspection, and arrange final sign-off once installation is complete. If you're only replacing with like-for-like equipment (same type and size), some inspections may be waived, but we confirm this upfront.

A typical furnace replacement in a mobile home takes one full day (6–8 hours), assuming we're not modifying existing gas lines or ductwork. A new installation with extended gas lines or new ducting may take two days. We schedule around your availability and discuss the timeline during our assessment.

Yes. We're certified to work with both natural gas and propane systems. Many mobile homes in the service area run on propane, especially in rural areas outside FortisBC's footprint. We pressure-test and inspect propane lines the same way we do natural gas.

Yes. We partner with FinanceIt to offer flexible payment plans on heating and cooling upgrades. We can discuss financing options once you've decided on equipment, and FinanceIt handles the application process.

Regular tune-ups aren't required, but they're popular with mobile home owners because they keep your furnace and heat pump ready when the seasons change. A well-maintained system runs longer and more efficiently. We recommend a fall furnace check and a spring AC or heat pump check.
