Really happy with my heat pump installation by Barracuda Mechanical Inc. The pricing was competitive, and communication throughout the whole process was excellent — they answered all my questions and explained things clearly. They also worked with me ahead of time to navigate my strata’s requirements, which made the approval process much smoother. What stood out was that the owners, Ryan and Stephan were personally on-site as part of the install team — this wasn’t a job handed off to junior installers or apprentices. The installation itself was great quality and really neatly done. It was one of the hottest days of the year, and Ryan and his team worked through it without complaint. They also gave me the right information to help with my rebate application, which saved me a lot of guesswork. Highly recommend Barracuda Mechanical — professional, knowledgeable, and hands-on from start to finish.

Ryan and Stephen were excellent to work with while installing our new hot water on demand system, and getting rid of our old, "homeowner's special" hot water tank situation. The two of them spent a lot of time answering our questions communicatively and professionally, and ensured we were informed when deciding what systems and products worked best for us. Their genuine care and craftsmanship was evident from the first conversation, all the way through the installation. Thank you two again for all your work, and we will turn back to you two again once we are ready to upgrade from our furnace to a new heat pump.

Great guys, The guy who came to quote the job, was also one of the guys who came to install the system. Fully knowledgeable, efficient, fast, and did the project exactly as planned. In the scary world of heat pumps and HVAC and all the information that come with it... let these guys take care of you. They will do a good job.

Barracuda Mechanical is an excellent choice. Stephen is friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable. He was thorough and efficient in his maintenance work on my gas fireplace and will definitely be my go-to for any further work.

Steven and Ryan installed a heat pump for my mom and she had a great experience. She has a low income and an oil furnace and they helped her get a heat pump installed for free through government rebates. After working with them on her behalf their professionalism and workmanship on her project was the tipping point for us to decide to get a heat pump too. They were kind, knowledgable and great to work with. Everything was on time and they were always helpful and good on their word. We're very happy with the final product and would recommend them as they're wonderful to work with!

Ryan and Stephen from Barracuda Mechanical recently installed 3 ductless Midea systems in my home. I love the system, it’s a life saver in this heat wave! Barracuda Mechanical was quick and efficient (they were able to give a quote and install before anyone else); they gave a great price (I shopped around); they were knowledgeable and transparent about what would work best for me; they were friendly and cleaned up after themselves; and they checked in on me to make sure everything was going well and to see if I had any questions. I would highly recommend getting one of these systems and having them install it!

Barracuda Mechanical did a great job installing a new tankless water heater and replacing some related propane and water piping. Prior to starting the job, they listened to me and supplied a solution that met my needs. I am very pleased with the high quality workmanship and the service they provided. Thanks again for a great job ! Mark Spencer

Ryan and Stephen replacd my oil furnace with a heat pump recently. I hit a wall with my clean B.C. application and they came to my home and helped me get it done when no one else would help. With the rebates I didnt have to pay a thing they submited the bill to clean B.C. and they paid them directly. Service was fast efficiant and complete what else could i ask for.

We had a fantastic experience with the team from Barracuda. They were quick to visit our property and respond with a quote, incredibly knowledgeable yet approachable, and respectful of our budget throughout the process. On installation day, they were impressively efficient—what was expected to take two days was completed in just one. We couldn’t be happier with the service and would absolutely recommend them to anyone.
