Heating Up Service, Cooling Down Costs – The GPH Mechanical Approach

GPH Mechanical isn’t just installing budget-conscious HVAC systems—they’re delivering reliable, year-round comfort for Okanagan homes and businesses while strengthening the community they serve. Beyond supporting local causes, the company has built a reputation for a smart, flexible approach to HVAC-R—and a unique way to ensure consistent, high-quality work.

The Secret to Company Success – Diversification

For owner-operator Gord Hayman, building a dependable company starts with being able to handle a wide range of work. That includes employing fully certified, licensed gas fitters alongside HVAC specialists. “One way we help residential and commercial clients save money is by installing dual-fuel systems,” Gord explains. These hybrid systems combine heat pumps and gas, allowing customers to rely on the most efficient and cost-effective option as conditions change throughout the year.

When temperatures drop, gas can become the more economical choice. From spring through fall, heat pumps offer greater efficiency—along with the added benefit of air conditioning. Working in tandem, the systems provide flexible, cost-effective comfort in any season.

From Pool Heating to Commercial Refrigeration

These ultra-efficient hybrid systems extend beyond home heating, too. GPH Mechanical also applies them to areas such as pool heating, further expanding the company’s scope. Supporting that growth is a fully equipped, in-house sheet metal shop.

“The reason we have our own shop is simple,” says Gord. “It gives us the materials, equipment, and skilled staff to respond immediately to project needs. We can maintain quality, meet tight timelines, and avoid the delays that come with outsourcing.” That capability is especially valuable in

another key area of the business: refrigeration. While not all HVAC companies offer it, GPH Mechanical provides a full range of HVAC-R services, including complex commercial refrigeration projects for cold storage facilities, medical freezers, and supermarket systems.

Built on Trust, Backed by Community

This level of diversification doesn’t just expand services—it creates stability, allowing the company to adapt and thrive even when unexpected challenges arise. While technical expertise is critical, Gord emphasizes that trust, service, and community involvement are just as important when choosing a contractor. GPH Mechanical puts those values into action through ongoing local support, including a high school bursary designated specifically for young women entering the trades.

Offering Confidence, Clarity, and Cool Solutions

If you want to learn more about the pros and cons of air conditioners vs. heat pumps, GPH Mechanical has a helpful blog on its website. Whether helping homeowners weigh heating and cooling options or ensuring businesses stay efficient during peak seasons, GPH Mechanical delivers more than mechanical solutions—they offer confidence, clarity, and a genuine commitment to the community they call home.

Based in Summerland, BC, GPH Mechanical operates out of #1–9576 Cedar Avenue, across from Detonate Brewing.

Cam was fast, explained everything, and is a very pleasant person. The cleaning for winter was excellent. Will ask for him again in the future..

-Carol Chapman

We hired Gordon Hayman of GPH Mechanical to replace our humidifier and found him to be very knowledgeable and dependable. He delivered a reliable quote and did a great job. Gordon and his team are very professional and take pride in their work. We have recently had him return for the annual furnace tune-up, which went very well. We highly recommend them and will continue using them for all our furnace needs.
