I own my detached home in Vancouver. We have a natural gas boiler that heats water for hot water uses and the water that flows through floor pipes providing radiant heating. The floor heating is the only space heating we have.

I would like to replace this natural gas system with a heat pump system.

I have searched for a reputable HVAC contractor in Vancouver but none of them seem to have knowledge like you. Can you recommend someone?
