Heat Pump & Electric Heating Installation in Toronto
Upgrade to Efficient Electric Heating
When to Upgrade or Add Electric Heating
Electric heating systems draw significant power, so your panel, breakers, and wiring need to be ready for the load. If you are switching from gas to electric, or adding new heating zones, it is worth checking your capacity first.
You may need an electrical upgrade if:- You’re installing a new heat pump, electric furnace, or baseboard heaters
- You’re replacing a gas water heater with an electric or tankless model
- You’ve added an EV charger, hot tub, or other large electrical loads
- Your panel is older, full, or showing signs of corrosion
- Your home still uses fuses instead of breakers
We will inspect your existing system and calculate the demand so your heating runs safely and efficiently.
If needed, we can upgrade your service or add a sub-panel for the new load.

Paul da SilvaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an outstanding experience working with Symmetric Electric Ltd. and Dan Kraus. From the very beginning, Dan demonstrated a level of professionalism, technical expertise, and integrity that is hard to find in the industry today. He took the time to thoroughly understand the scope of our building at 426 Ossington Ave, and approached the electrical assessment with a methodical, detail-oriented mindset. What truly stood out was his ability to translate complex electrical systems into clear, actionable insights. He didn’t just “look at panels”—he conducted a structured investigation, identified potential cross-feeding issues, and provided a clear path forward to bring the building into a safe, compliant, and properly organized condition. This aligns exactly with the type of work required in a mixed-use property where life-safety systems and tenant separation must be handled correctly.  Dan’s communication was excellent throughout: • Transparent about scope and expectations • Honest about unknowns (which is critical in older buildings) • Flexible and solution-oriented • Focused on doing the job properly—not cutting corners He also demonstrated strong accountability around ESA requirements, inspections, and documentation, which is essential not only for compliance, but also for insurance, resale value, and landlord-tenant considerations. If you are looking for an electrician who operates at a high professional standard, understands multi-unit and mixed-use buildings, and takes pride in delivering correct, compliant work, I would highly recommend Symmetric Electric. This is the type of contractor you want involved when the goal is not just to “fix something,” but to do it right and stand behind it. — Paul da SilvaPosted on Daniel GippsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Based on so many positive reviews, I contacted Dan to install an EV car charger at our home. His great reviews are well deserved! Within an hour of sending him an initial email, he responded.

An absolute pleasure to have in our home. Danny was patient with us as he ended up staying far longer than anticipated because we kept giving him new things to do. He was up for each challenge and did an excellent job. When he left, it was like he was never here as he left nothing behind. I highly recommend him! You will not be disappointed.Posted on SachaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dan was great! I had a very difficult TV installation that required drilling behind my fireplace to hide wires and several ceiling lights to be installed.
