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.

Home Depot Tankless or Rinnai
May 12th
Bosch vs Rinnai Tankless
|
There has been quite the buzz regarding tankless water heaters lately. Claims of their superior energy savings and efficiency have been touted by every company pushing the units. Yes they do reduce the amount of gas or propane you use but they also provide endless hot water. If you take a 45 minute shower your more than likely using more energy than you would with a conventional tank that simply runs out of hot water after 20. Yet if you are reasonable and shower for the same duration, you have great potential to see some real energy (and money) savings with a tankless water heater.
Now that you know you want a tankless you have two options…
Option 1 – Go to your nearest Home Depot and purchase one from there, then hire a gas fitter and a plumber to install it
or
Option 2 – Look for a professional tankless installer who has the specialty to preform a stand-up job.
Being the person purchasing the system cost will obviously be a factor and I guarantee Home Depot will be the cheapest option (If cost is your only driving force you should click the link and head to Home Depot now).
For those of you that stuck around I will explain why the second choice is probably the best choice.
Firstly if you call around to a few tankless installers you will quickly realize that none of them sell Bosch tankless heaters (Bosch is the only tankless brand Home Depot sells). The reason why these companies don’t offer this brand is due to the fact they offer extended warranties and guarantees. They are on the line for the products they sell and thus they go with quality products they know will stand up and remain reliable.
Enter Rinnai.
Ask these same tankless installation companies if they sell the Rinnai brand tankless water heater and I bet you find that 99% of them do. Rinnai tankless water heaters are built to last and this is why industry professionals install this brand. Lets compare the Bosch and Rinnai tankless models and see some of the differences.
Bosch Aquastar Tankless Water Heater 1600H compared with Rinnai R75LSi Tankless
Bosch Tankless Verses a Rinnai Tankless
| Bosch 1600H | Rinnai R75LSi | |
|---|---|---|
| Tankless Weight | 33 Pounds | 50 Pounds |
| Power Input (NG) | 30,735-117,000 Btu | 15,000-180,000 Btu |
| CSA Certified | Yes | Yes |
| GPM | 0.6 – 3.5 GPM | 0.6 – 7.5 GPM |
| Energy Factor | 0.8 or 80% | 0.82 or 82% |
| Heat Exchanger | Residential Grade | Commercial Grade |
| Cost or Price | $939 + installation and Vent | $2850 or $39.95 rental |
As you can see there are some definite differences, probably the most glaring is the amount of hotwater that can be provided. The Rinnai is able to produce more than twice as much, meaning you won’t run into problems when running more than one appliance or faucet..
Of course this doesn’t take into account all the benefits that you get from a professional install like:
- Proper venting, tankless systems have very specific code requirements
- Correct sizing so that you always have enough hot water
- Additional warranty and workmanship guarantees
- Maintenance guarantees, service plans, and emergency tech service.
Sure any Ontario Home Depot has the cheapest system but I hope I clarified why they’re some much cheaper. Now those of you still left reading option 2 and didn’t click on the Home Depot link you are obviously interested in a tankless. These systems can’t go in every home due to venting issues so we send out a technician to make sure everything will work and what size tankless your home would need. This is a free service, so just fill out the form below and we will call you to schedule a time for someone to come by. Typically only 15-20 minutes.

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.

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.
