Custom Ductwork & Sheet Metal Fabrication in Vancouver.

Custom Ductwork Built for Your HVAC Project.

Custom ductwork plays a major role in how effectively an HVAC system moves heated, cooled and ventilated air throughout a building. Penguin HVAC provides custom ductwork and sheet metal fabrication for residential and light commercial HVAC projects throughout Vancouver and the Lower Mainland.


Whether we're modifying an existing system, working within the tight spaces of a renovation, or building a duct system for a custom home, our team designs and fabricates ductwork around the actual requirements of the project rather than trying to force standard components into a space where they don't belong.


During the planning stage, our HVAC team evaluates the complete system to determine the right ductwork configuration. Key factors we consider include:


  1. Airflow requirements: Determining how much conditioned air needs to reach each area of the building.
  2. Duct sizing and layout: Properly sizing supply and return ductwork to support the HVAC equipment and required airflow.
  3. Available space: Designing around framing, mechanical rooms, ceilings, joists and other building components.
  4. Equipment connections: Creating the required plenums, transitions, fittings and connections for furnaces, heat pumps, air handlers and ventilation equipment.



With Penguin HVAC, your ductwork is designed as part of the complete heating and cooling system, helping the equipment distribute air effectively throughout the property.

Custom Sheet Metal Fabrication for HVAC Systems.

Every HVAC project is a little different. Renovations can have limited mechanical space, custom homes can require unique duct layouts, and equipment replacements may need new transitions to connect modern HVAC equipment to existing ductwork.


Penguin HVAC provides custom sheet metal fabrication for the components required to complete these installations properly. Depending on the project, this can include custom duct sections, plenums, transitions, offsets, fittings, take-offs, boots and equipment connections.



Rather than relying entirely on off-the-shelf components, custom fabrication allows us to build pieces that fit the actual dimensions and requirements of the HVAC system.

Ductwork for Renovations, Custom Homes and Light Commercial Projects

Our custom ductwork services can be incorporated into a wide range of HVAC projects, including home renovations, additions, custom homes, equipment upgrades and light commercial installations.



For renovation projects, we can assess existing ductwork and determine what can remain, what should be modified and where new ductwork is required. For new systems, we can design the duct layout alongside the heating and cooling equipment so everything works together as one system.

Why Choose Penguin Air Conditioning and Heating for Custom Ductwork.

Proper ductwork involves more than connecting pieces of sheet metal together. Duct sizing, airflow, routing & equipment compatibility all affect how the finished HVAC system performs.


Penguin HVAC combines HVAC system knowledge with custom ductwork and sheet metal fabrication, allowing our team to consider the equipment and air distribution together. Our licensed HVAC technicians follow applicable building requirements and proven installation practices while completing clean, carefully planned installations throughout Vancouver and the Lower Mainland.

  • How do I know if my HVAC project requires custom ductwork?

    The average cost to install an HRV system in Canada is around $7,200 during the framing stage of a new construction or renovation project.


    This cost may fluctuate depending on the size of the HRV needed, complexity of installation and brand of equipment.

  • Can Penguin HVAC modify my existing ductwork?

    An HRV isn't a very complicated piece of equipment, but ensuring the system is designed properly is necessary for it to work properly!


    An HRV is installed by installing ductwork throughout your house and by installing a fresh air intake and exhaust outlet on the exterior of your house.


    A fresh air vent will need to be run to each room in the house for the system to properly recycle the air in your home.

  • How long does custom ductwork and sheet metal fabrication take?

    The timeline depends on the size and complexity of the project. A small equipment transition or duct modification may be incorporated directly into an HVAC installation, while larger duct systems for renovations, custom homes or commercial spaces require additional planning, fabrication and installation time.


    Penguin HVAC will review the project and provide a defined scope before the work begins.
