Ductless Comfort for Deep-Rural Living

Lumby and the surrounding Monashee valleys have an exceptionally high share of no-ductwork homes. Heritage village houses heated with wood or baseboard for decades. Creighton Valley and Trinity Valley farmhouses and homesteads with additions built over different eras. Mabel Lake Road cabins transitioning to year-round use. Workshops, studios, and converted outbuildings on rural acreages. Running central ducts through any of these is either physically impossible or far more disruptive and expensive than the comfort gain justifies.

Stevenson Mechanical installs single-zone and multi-zone ductless systems across Lumby, Creighton Valley, Trinity Valley, and Mabel Lake Road. Cold-climate heat pump mini-splits handle both valley-trapped summer heat and shoulder-season heating — and most qualify for CleanBC and utility rebates worth real money.

  • Single-zone installs
  • Multi-zone systems (up to 5 heads)
  • Cold-climate heat pump mini-splits
  • Farmhouse & homestead retrofits
  • Cabin, workshop & outbuilding installs
  • Service on existing ductless systems
Where Ductless Fits in Lumby

Mini-Splits for Lumby & the Valleys

  1. Village Heritage Homes

    Glencaird Street and downtown Lumby homes with baseboard heat and no duct chases. Mini-splits add comfort without touching heritage walls.

  2. Valley Farmhouses

    Creighton and Trinity Valley farmhouses with additions from multiple decades — rarely well-served by the main system. A head per zone solves it.

  3. Mabel Lake Cabins

    Cabins transitioning to year-round use need real HVAC. Ductless delivers heating and cooling efficiently without central duct infrastructure.

  4. Workshops & Outbuildings

    Rural workshops, studios, and converted buildings on Lumby acreages — targeted conditioning without ducting between structures.

  5. Secondary Suites

    Above-garage and converted-outbuilding suites need independent HVAC. Mini-splits install cleanly with separate control.

  6. Off-Grid-Adjacent Properties

    Some Monashee foothill properties have limited electrical. High-efficiency mini-splits draw less power than central systems — important for constrained supply.

Shadd and his team are absolutely wonderful and did a great job. I needed a basement sink plumbed and new washer dryer hookups and they were able to get it done in short order, kept everything tidy and were super easy to deal with. They knew my budget and worked with me to stay within it and gave me everything I needed. They are very professional, skilled and their prices are more than reasonable. I would highly recommend them to everyone!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED BY US! 4 weeks ago, our hot water and air conditioning quit working on the same day! I called and spoke with the AMAZING Denise, she had Alex out at our shop within the day and he had everything diagnosed and parts ordered, not long after the first appointment, he had our hot water back in working order and then our A/C was repaired after that! Anytime we have had any issues, they have been very prompt to show up on the same day and Alex fixed it all! Such amazing and friendly services! You all have a forever client with Integra Tire and our team moving forward! Thank You!

Plumbing problems are never fun, but we appreciated how Stevenson Mechanical handled the replacement of our sump pump --from booking the appointment to the on-time arrival of our plumber and his friendly, competent service (which included persevering through some unexpected issues). Thank you for your expertise and excellent service!

This company is great! We needed to have our air conditioning unit disconnected and moved temporarily as we were getting our backyard patio redone. They were able to accommodate our last minute request, they completed the work quickly and got our unit reconnected just in time to beat the heat ! I would highly recommend them!
