Get the Perfect Hot Water Tank for Your Needs
Choosing the right hot water tank is crucial for meeting your specific needs efficiently. Key factors to consider include:
Tank capacity, ensuring it aligns with your household's water usage patterns
Energy efficiency is another vital aspect, as more efficient models can significantly reduce utility bills over time
The type of tank – whether traditional or tankless – also matters, with each offering distinct benefits in terms of space, energy use, and continuous water supply
Additionally, consider the recovery rate, which determines how quickly the tank can replenish hot water. Our experts can guide you through these considerations, helping you find the perfect fit for your home.
What to Expect From Standard Hot Water Tanks
Standard hot water tanks are traditional water heating systems that store and heat water in a large tank. They constantly maintain the water at a set temperature, ensuring a ready supply. Ideal for consistent, high-volume use, they provide reliable hot water on demand.
Relatively Inexpensive Option
These tanks offer a high water capacity, ideal for homes with substantial hot water needs. They ensure a steady, ample supply of hot water, perfect for larger families or high-demand situations.
High Capacity Hot Water Supply
Standard hot water tanks are generally more affordable upfront than other types. Their installation and maintenance prices are lower, making them a cost-effective choice for many households.
Powered By Diverse Energy Sources
These tanks continuously heat water, leading to higher energy usage. This constant operation can increase utility bills, especially in homes where hot water demand fluctuates significantly.
Potential Drawbacks of Standard Hot Water Tanks
Need Lots of Space
Standard hot water tanks are versatile and can run on various energy sources, including gas, electricity, and even solar power, offering flexibility in choosing the most convenient and cost-effective energy option.
Remains in Constant Usage
Standard hot water tanks are sizable and require a significant amount of space for installation. This can be a limitation in homes with smaller utility areas or limited storage space.
Have a Limited Lifespan
Standard hot water tanks typically have a shorter lifespan compared to tankless models. They usually require replacement every 10-15 years, depending on maintenance and water quality.
What to Expect From a Tankless Water Heater
Tankless water heaters, also known as on-demand water heaters, heat water directly without the need for a storage tank. They provide hot water instantly as it flows through the device, offering energy efficiency and a continuous hot water supply.
Benefits of Tankless Water Heaters
More Energy Efficient
Tankless water heaters are highly energy-efficient as they heat water on demand, reducing energy waste associated with maintaining a constant hot water supply in a tank, leading to lower utility bills.
Compact For Spaces
Their compact size makes tankless heaters ideal for smaller homes and spaces. They can be mounted on walls, freeing up floor space and providing greater installation flexibility compared to standard tanks.
Higher Life Expectancy
Tankless water heaters typically have a longer lifespan, often exceeding 20 years with proper maintenance. This durability makes them a cost-effective choice in the long run despite the higher initial investment.
Potential Drawbacks of Tankless Water Heaters
A Costly Option
Tankless water heaters generally have a higher upfront price compared to traditional tanks. The initial investment includes the unit and potentially more complex installation processes, making it a pricier option initially.
Low Capacity Hot Water Supply
While offering continuous hot water, tankless heaters may struggle to supply large volumes simultaneously. Homes with high hot water demand might experience reduced flow when multiple outlets are used concurrently.
Powered Only By Gas or Electricity
Tankless heaters are limited to gas or electric models. This restricts options for households without access to natural gas or those looking for alternative energy sources like solar power for their hot water needs.

Korey C.
Kevin is an absolute expert in his field! We renovated our basement the Summer of 2021, adding a shower to an existing bathroom and a wet bar to an adjacent living space. A friend referred us to Kevin and I'm so glad they did. His attention to detail, knowledge and professionalism made it a stress-free experience. Not only did everything pass the City inspection, he did a great job re-installing our toilet and sink, provided his expert opinion on a few other jobs we had going on and left absolutely no mess for me to clean up after he finished his work. He did such an amazing job that he was the first person we called when we needed our water heater relocated and our chimney caps replaced later that Fall. We called Kevin once again to have maintenance done on our tankless water heater and furnace on our rental property. Kevin is friendly, reliable, trustworthy and our go to technician from now on! Thank you Kevin!

I recently moved from Ontario and Kevin replaced my water heaters (i have 2) here in Calgary. One new heater was faulty out of the box. He quickly called the supplier, scheduled the swap and the next day came to replace the heater. Without charging me for the faulty equipment, it was hassle free. Amazing service, great price and honest work. Its TIP TOP service! Thanks Kevin!
