Grants For Tankless Are Back In Ontario
Mar 24th
Well it looks as though the EcoEnergy audit program has been approved for another year.
This was an extremely popular program put in 3 years ago that enabled home owners to receive upwards of $10000 in government grants and rebates. Technically it would be really difficult to get that much but it did provide a significant reduction on a number of home systems. Initially the ecoEnergy program was funded with over $700 million dollars but as it grew in popularity the funding became more scarce. The Federal pulled their funding last year in an attempt to slow the demand. This left Provincial Government to fund and promote the home energy audit and grants available.
As you likely have heard in the news the Conservative Government has allocated $400 million to reinstate their share of the available grants to home owners. What does this mean to you? Well if your looking for a tankless water heater (which I would assume is why you are here) you will be entitled to a grant of over $700 dollars. That is a good portion of what a tankless will cost over a conventional tank.
So if your housing an antique water heater in your basement now is probably a good time to upgrade to a tankless and get the Government to pay for a good portion of the system.

Dont Like Tankless? Or Cant Install One? You Can Still Have High Efficiency
Nov 11th
In a lot of instances a tankless is unable to be installed due to venting restrictions, or maybe your not interested in a tankless but still want greater efficiency…. does this mean you have to stick with your old style inefficient tank type water heater?
Nope, there is a solutions….. Envirosense.
GSW makes a conventional style tank type system that is 90% efficient.
The Envirosense Power Vent is a 50-gallon, 76,000 BTU gas water heater, equipped with a fully submerged, spiral-shaped condensing heat exchanger. This design provides much greater heat transfer surface than a standard straight flue tube, resulting in 90% thermal efficiency and higher hot water output than standard water heaters. With a 22” diameter, Envirosense Power Vent can be installed in less space than a 75-gallon unit and delivers greater recovery and lower operating costs. The Envirosense Power Vent is so advanced, it can deliver “endless hot water for showers” … a continuous flow of over 3 gallons per minute
If you are not keen on a tankless water heater you can still have unlimited hot water with this GSW high efficiency tank. This qualifies for Government Grants and Rebates

Rinnai Tankless
Jul 15th
The Rinnai tankless water heater is one of the best brands of tankless systems out there. This is simply because the unit is reliable.
The specifications and features on any of the Rinnai tankless product lines are on par with all other major tankless brands, they consume similar amounts of gas, produce very similar hot water quantities, and have nearly the exact same efficiency ratings. Day in and day out the Rinnai tankless just works, it never breaks down and that’s what makes it stand out.
Rinnai Models
The Rinnai tankless units that are installable in Ontario are:
- RC80HPi
- RC98HPi
- R50LSi
- R75LSi
- R98LSi (commercial)
The RC80 and RC98 are both condensing units and have a energy factor of 94%
The R50, R75, and R98 are conventional tankless systems with an energy factor of 82%
Tankless Grants for Rinnai
All Rinnai units available for Government grants – you can find out how much you are eligible for on our Grants Page.
Sizing a Rinnai
Why Rinnai is different:
As a consumer you simply cant purchase a Rinnai tankless and have your local plumber install it, the dealership has strict sales rules and policies in place to prevent this. To become a Rinnai tankless dealer all of the installers have to go through special training to ensure that each and every tankless is installed within all specifications. Yes, this is a significant factor to why Rinnai’s reliability factor is so high.
Its difficult if not impossible to size a tankless without first surveying the home that its being installed in, there is a rough guide that you can follow though.
- RC98 and RC80 – Tankless condensing units that can handle between 8 and 9.8 GPM suitable for nearly all homes (except for really large one 4000 sqf and up).
- R75 – Very universal tankless suitable for nearly all homes, produces 7.5 GPM (caution should be taken on installs for larger homes).
- R50 – Smaller tankless suitable for smaller homes and cottages. The unit produces 5.0 GPM.
Rinnai Costs
Again this is nearly impossible to predict as every home is unique as well as every install. The unknowns are installation rates, venting pipe length, venting issues, mounting locations, gas piping, water piping, etc. But the unit is a fixed price and can cost anywhere from $1500 to over $4000 (that’s installation included as you cant just buy a unit).
Toronto Tankless
Jul 10th
Tankless water heaters are very popular right now and more and more Torontonians are switching over to them as they are subject to large Government subsidies as well as offering significant energy savings. Basically its a win win situation for any home owner looking to upgrade their water heating equipment.
Common miss-conception right now is that rebates are not available anymore for tankless water heaters in Toronto, this is not true and you can expect a significant savings if you decide to upgrade. To access the grants there is a few steps that you the home owner must complete to be eligible, first is to get a Home Energy Audit which will get you access to $5000 in rebates, and not just for tankless water heater systems but furnaces, air conditioners, home insulation, etc. Then simply get your tankless installed and wait for your rebate in the mail.
Toronto has slightly hard water and so it is important that you have your tankless water heater flushed once every year or two to ensure that it maintains its efficiency. A conventional tank cant be flushed and this buildup occurs and within a few years its relatively low efficiency is even lower. Move up to a tankless water heater and get your share of Government grants and reduce your energy bills.

New Tankless Grants in Ontario

Ontario Tankless Grants
|
Its still early but I think its safe to say that the Ontario Government is maintaining its side of the grant money 
available to home owners. It has been a relatively convoluted situation as some people have received official continuation press releases while others haven’t. Currently we haven’t here at Tankless Water Heaters but today a service provider brought one in for us to view. We will try and have a copy posted up soon.
Grants are back and available to Home owners for tankless water heaters.
If you were kicking yourself for not getting a tankless when the government grants were available then your certainly in luck today.
Does a Tankless Water Heater Save Money?
Apr 7th
Tankless Systems Save
|
Tankless systems are very effective at saving you money. This only makes sense as they only provide hot water on demand. They don’t heat water and then hold it, continually maintaining that temperature.
You wouldn’t leave your car running all night so that it was warm in the morning would you? Well that’s what your hot water tank does day in and day out.
Our tankless water rental tanks have been unaffected by the drop of the government grants. If your living in the greater Toronto area, and place like Brampton, Mississauga, North York, Hamilton, Richmond Hill, Thornhill, and Markham. You are very likely renting your conventional tank and paying upwards of $20-$30 a month for a system worth $700 at most. Upgrading to a tankless and we take care of returning your old tank, and installing a tankless. All for roughly $10 more a month and you have a system valued at nearly $4000 providing your hot water.
- Tankless systems are more reliable
- Tankless water heaters are more energy efficient
- They provide endless hot water
- You get unlimited tech support
- Unlimited emergency service and repairs
These systems are proven energy and money savers, sure they cost a little bit more a month to rent but you easily make that up in the natural gas or electricity reduction savings.
