Water Heater Questions

Around eight to twelve years for a typical residential tank in Metro Vancouver. Once a tank passes ten, replacing it on your schedule is usually better than waiting — tanks rarely fail gracefully, and a split tank empties its full contents onto the floor of wherever it happens to be sitting.
Age is the deciding factor. A thermocouple, a thermostat, an element or a gas valve on a tank that is five years old is worth fixing. The same part on an eleven-year-old tank is money spent on something that is going to be replaced soon anyway. We give you both numbers and the honest recommendation.
It depends on your household. Endless hot water and a meaningful cut in standing energy loss are real benefits, and the unit frees up floor space. Against that, a tankless install often needs a larger gas supply and new venting, so the up-front cost is higher than a straight tank swap. More on tankless here.
FortisBC offers rebates on qualifying high-efficiency and tankless models, and the amounts change periodically. We keep track of what is current and handle the application paperwork for you as part of the installation rather than leaving you to chase it.
They benefit from it considerably, and almost nobody does it. Metro Vancouver water leaves mineral deposits that settle in the bottom of a tank and insulate the burner from the water, which wastes gas and shortens the tank life. A yearly flush and anode check is cheap and it measurably extends service life. More on tune-ups.
