Services in Maple Ridge

Hot water in Maple Ridge

Maple Ridge is Metro Vancouver's easternmost core coverage community, with single-family housing from the postwar era through new subdivisions, plus townhomes and rural acreages toward the eastern edge. Water-heater work mixes like-for-like tank replacements, conversions to tankless where chimneys are gone, and electric or heat-pump installations on properties without gas.

Maple Ridge is one of the municipalities that issues its own gas installation permits for single, fully detached dwellings at service pressures at or below 14.0 kPa (2 psig); everything else is permitted by Technical Safety BC. CANRO obtains the applicable permits and confirms scheduling and travel by phone.

Local facts with sources

Who issues gas permits in Maple Ridge. The City of Maple Ridge issues its own gas installation permits for single, fully detached dwellings at service pressures at or below 14.0 kPa (2 psig); other premises and higher-pressure or higher-load work are permitted by Technical Safety BC. Source

Homeowner gas permits. Owners of strata or non-strata duplex dwellings, and homes operating a business, cannot use a homeowner permit and must hire a licensed contractor; Technical Safety BC sets out who may pull a homeowner gas permit. Source

Water supply and hardness. Metro Vancouver supplies the water and reports treated hardness of roughly 2–25 mg/L as CaCO3 depending on the source, which is very soft water: scale is a minor concern and anode condition matters more on storage tanks. Source

Gas utility and leak line. Natural gas in this community is supplied by FortisBC. For a gas smell or suspected leak, leave the building and call the FortisBC emergency line at 1-800-663-9911 or 911. Source

CANRO in Maple Ridge. CANRO Heating & Cooling lists Maple Ridge among its Metro Vancouver service areas; travel from its Burnaby base is confirmed by phone when booking. Source

If you smell gas

Stop what you are doing. Do not use phones, switches, matches or anything that can spark inside.
Go outside and leave the door open behind you.
Call the FortisBC 24-hour emergency line at 1-800-663-9911 or dial 911.

Only after that, call CANRO about the water heater. Official guidance: FortisBC gas leaks and odour.
