First-of-its-kind retrofit for BC schools
Mission Schools — Hybrid Heat Pump Retrofits
Christine Morrison & Albert McMahon; next: École Mission Central & West Heights
Alpine Refrigeration partnered with School District 75 to pioneer one of the first large-scale commercial heat pump retrofits in British Columbia's education sector.
Christine Morrison and Albert McMahon Elementary Schools required modern, energy-efficient heating and cooling systems to replace aging infrastructure while meeting Zero Carbon legislation targets.
- 30% lower energy costs
- Net Zero Carbon compliant
- 2 schools completed, with more in progress
- Custom engineering vs. rip-and-replace
- First in BC: Alpine completed these hybrid retrofits before similar projects in the U.S. made industry news.
- Built to last: All refrigerant lines are fully aluminum-jacketed to prevent bird/wind damage and protect efficiency for years.
- Hybrid reliability: Modulating heat pumps handle the primary load; boilers auto-stage during deep cold for uninterrupted comfort.
Agricultural Innovation
Gracemar Farms | Dairy Chiller Retrofit
Turning dairy challenges into energy solutions
Alpine designed a custom dairy chiller retrofit for Gracemar Farms that solved ammonia issues, improved air quality, and turned waste heat into usable energy.
- 25–30 year system lifespan (vs. 7 years before)
- Reclaimed heat for drinking water & boiler preheat
- Enabled IAF grants for sustainable farms
