Heat Exchanger
Navien tankless water heaters utilizes dual stainless steel heat exchangers, providing 3.8 to 4.5 times longer life-expectancy and erosion resistance over the copper heat exchangers used in other tankless brands. Navien’s heat exchangers operate with relatively low water temperature, minimizing damage from hard water conditions and maintains efficiency levels. Its always important to have your tankless flushed once every 2 years or so to remove any buildup from within the heat exchangers.
Efficiency
Because of Naviens high efficiency the tankless can be vented in PVC piping. Basically excess heat is exhausted with all the combustion gasses in conventional tank systems but a Navien uses this to further heat the water. This results in significantly lower exhaust temperatures and allows for the use of PVC exhaust vent piping.

Cold Weather Is On The Way Toronto
Dec 5th
It’s December and here in Toronto we have seen basically zero snow and above seasonal temperatures pushing our heating season back by over a month. It’s true we have a strong focus on tankless water heaters but we are also able to install and maintain furnaces within most of the Greater Toronto Area. We like to ensure that you have effective HVAC equipment that is the most suitable system for your home. 
Fundamentally high end tankless and furnaces are for the most part very similar to low and mid range units. You are going to get some upgraded parts and whole lot more features on the high end units but will you use those features? I know I purchased a high end dishwasher once; it has a whole bunch of features and a ton of buttons. Of all of those options and buttons I use one, and it’s the same button everyday… START. Keep that in mind when purchasing new home equipment, it’s easy to get caught up in all the features.
We always work with you as the home owner to find something that will fit your budget and most importantly generate savings though efficiency. Even a 12 year old furnace is sufficiently less efficient to justify looking into a new system. Remember that this week the cold is going to set in and bring the chills associated with winter, make sure your prepared and have your furnace inspected today.
A Home Tankless Assesment In Toronto
Nov 21st
If you’re thinking of having a tankless installed in your home it’s important to do your research and understand what it is you want. Tankless systems have more stringent installation requirements than conventional tank type water heaters. Occasionally a new tankless can be vented right though the same path but it’s not always possible. Having a professional come in and assess your home allows you to tap their knowledge and not only see if a tankless can successfully be installed but also pick the best spot for installation. A Professional can help you decide:
- Location For Tankless Installation
- Vent Path Options
- Electrical needs
- Water Path Optimization
- Flow Requirements
- Brand of Tankless Unit
- Help In Accessing Government Rebate Programs
Flow rate is an important issue that should be assessed on an individual house basis. A condensing tankless uses the exhaust heat to pre-warm the incoming water; this is good for Toronto and area locations as our winter water temperature is cold. Having cold winter water decreases how much hot water a tankless can produce, so it is important to ensure you get a system that can provide you with the necessary amount of hot water.
We offer free tankless assessments and can have someone come out to your home to assess firstly, if a tankless can be installed, and then, which system would provide you with the correct hot water quantity. There’s no obligation to purchase anything, but if you decide you’re interested we can work out a quote and leave it with you. An assessment takes no longer than 30 minutes.

Tankless Rental Program

Tankless Rentals
|
Home owners in Ontario, Toronto, Burlington, Hamilton, Etobicoke and the GTA are now able to rent a tankless hot water heater instead of the conventional tank type. A tankless system heats water on demand 
or as required by a home owner and provides an endless supply. A conventional tank heats water all day long and wastes energy.
This is a worry free rental program that gives home owners the option to go tankless without the upfront costs. Switching out your old tank is easy as expert installers will remove the old tank and replace it with the new tankless system. The old tank will, if you own it be recycled or if it’s a rental returned to the company that you’re currently with.
This should all take less than 4 hours and you can be saving over a 1000 pounds of CO2 a year.
Fill out this quick form and we will have someone contact you within 24 hours to answer any question and find out if a tankless will work in your home.

Tankless Rental
Dec 9th
You are probably paying $50.00 or more per month to just maintain the heat in a tank type water heater. WHY? Because the tank system looses its heat up the flue and then reheats, even while you sleep or are at work. This is called standby heat loss. 
The payback period for tankless water heaters is 3 to 7 years depending on how much hot water you use and the cost of energy. The smaller the amount of hot water that you use, the faster the payoff. If you are single and are seldom at home using hot water, your energy bill reflects the low consumption because tankless water heaters do not experience standby heat loss. Rewarding conservation is a key toward protecting future fresh water supplies.
Switching to a tankless water heater is easy. You can rent a Rinnai tankless water heater for about $35 per month. If you live in Anywhere in Toronto, Bramton, Hamilton or all of the GTA, all you need to do is send us your information and we’ll give you a free assessment. You can get started today. You will receive a Rinnai tankless water heater installed by a licensed installer and the cost of a standard installation will be completely covered. In a few hours you will have your own tankless system!
Another benefit of renting is that you will still qualify for the ecoEnergy rebate from Natural Resources Canada. Click here for more details.
