🌡️ HVAC in Victoria
Heating, ventilation, air conditioning installation, maintenance, and emergency repair.
In Canada's climate, heating is an essential service — landlords are legally required to maintain heat to a minimum temperature (usually 20°C/68°F) throughout the rental season. HVAC failures in winter can result in emergency costs, tenant compensation claims, and regulatory complaints. Regular seasonal maintenance is far cheaper than emergency repairs.
Victoria's low vacancy rates make it one of Canada's most challenging rental markets for tenants. Government employment and the University of Victoria drive steady demand year-round.

Tips for Victoria Landlords Hiring HVAC Contractors
- Schedule seasonal HVAC maintenance in spring (AC) and fall (heating) before peak demand drives up service costs.
- Keep a maintenance log of all HVAC service dates — this is evidence of due diligence if tenants raise complaints.
- Clarify with your tenants who is responsible for filter changes — this should be in your lease agreement.
- Ensure your HVAC vendor is familiar with the unit types in your properties (heat pumps, boilers, forced air, etc.).
Frequently Asked Questions — HVAC for Rental Properties
What temperature are landlords required to maintain in a rental?
In Ontario, landlords must maintain a minimum indoor temperature of 20°C (68°F) between September 1 and June 1. BC requires 22°C (71°F) in common areas. Most provinces have similar requirements. Failure to provide adequate heat is one of the most common causes of tenant complaints to rental boards.
Who is responsible for HVAC maintenance in a rental unit?
The landlord is responsible for maintaining the HVAC system in good working order. Lease agreements can assign routine tasks (like filter changes) to tenants, but the structural system remains the landlord's responsibility. This includes furnaces, heat pumps, central air units, and boilers.
How often should furnaces be serviced in a rental property?
Annual furnace inspections and tune-ups are the industry standard. This ensures safe, efficient operation and catches issues before they become emergency failures. Most HVAC technicians recommend scheduling in late summer or early fall before the heating season begins.

HVAC servicing is a recurring, year-round opportunity for contractors working with rental properties. Seasonal tune-ups, filter changes, and emergency call-outs create predictable revenue streams.
