Although many of you like to DIY things, a water heater installation should not be one of them. Yes, it may save you a few upfront costs, but it won’t save you long-term – plus this can all be solved with water heater rentals and our free maintenance.
Do Not DIY
We understand that many things in your home can be fixed or installed yourself by doing a DIY, but a water heater should NOT be one of them. This is an extremely dangerous job, as it involves extremely hot water, gas, pressure-controlled tanks, etc. For a job such as this, we recommend trusting the experts to get the job done.
Yes, this can be an expensive task up-front, but long-term, DIYing it can cause more issues down the road. To help eliminate some of these costs, consider renting your water heater from Reliance Heather Water Heater Rentals – we offer free maintenance checks too!
Reasons For A Professional
There are many factors as to why a professional should install your water heater from codes to safety, professionals are the way to go!
Warranty:If there are any available warranties for your water heater, they can not be applied if you install it yourself. It puts you at risk for forgoing any additional warranty that may be offered at that time.
Codes: There are many city and fire codes required when installing a new water heater in your home. When using a professional, you avoid any coding issues which in turn can help with your safety and avoid costly fines.
Installation: When installing a water heater, there are many areas you need knowledge of such as vents, pipes, wiring, and soldering. Professionals are trained in understanding the installation of each specific unit to best function in your home.
Safety: Although a bit of safety was mentioned before, this is probably one of the most important reasons for having a professional install your water heater. Due to having so many factors such as extremely hot water, gas, carbon monoxide, electrical wiring, a pressure-controlled tank, etc., one tiny slip can cause massive damage or injury. It is extremely dangerous to be handling different areas, especially when one small mistake can cost you everything. Professionals are trained to know exactly what to do during installations along with the risks and hazards.
With so many factors being a concern during installations, we strongly recommend paying the cost upfront for a professional, rather than later down the line.
At Reliance Heath Water Heater Rentals, we will rent you a unit that best meets your needs and price range. Rather than paying all of the costs upfront, save by paying an affordable monthly fee. Not only do we help with cost long-term, but we also offer free maintenance checks to ensure you never have to worry about getting your water heater serviced.

Having hot water for businesses, condos, and apartments is extremely important, as it’s required by law for safety reasons. Let the experts help you avoid potential legal issues by having your water heater run to its full potential using our checklist below.
Be Sure To Check The Lifespan
Much like residential water heaters, commercial water heaters also have a lifespan. Although replacing a water heater can be a hassle and expensive, that’s why we offer commercial rental by taking this pressure off of you.

Be sure to check out our guide to know how long you’ve had your water heater, so you aren’t left guessing.

Volume Is Important Too
From the get-go, you should consult with an expert to ensure your water heater volume will be efficient to supply the building. If a unit is too small, it will not supply enough hot water for all the buildings. Along with size, if a hot water unit is not receiving regular maintenance, it has the possibility for sediment build-up which reduces the amount of water inside. Due to this, the amount of hot water flowing through the pipes with decrease which can cause legality issues. If you need assistance with a consult or maintenance, contact us right away.

The Cost to Maintain
A water heater is crucial to keep your water hot and keep you and your family comfortable. Water heaters use several advanced technologies to keep your water hot efficiently so you can save time and money. Maintenance should be done by a professional to ensure everything is running smoothly.
If you buy a water heater, the purchase and installation will cost approximately $1,500 depending on the style and type of water heater you choose. That’s just getting it in your house. Regular maintenance, to avoid purchasing a new one before your mortgage renewal, is another added cost. You can expect at least $150 for service. But if it breaks down, you are looking at hundreds of dollars more (and potentially the additional cost of a plumber if there is a water leak) to get your water heater repaired including the cost of labour and parts.
When you rent with Reliance Heath Water Heater Rentals, you pay one annual fee for your water heater and you do not pay for anything else! No installation fees, no service fees, and no repair fees. It’s all included as part of your rental.
That means your routine maintenance is included. We do this annually to make sure your water heater is working trouble-free as much as possible. We repeat: service calls and maintenance visits are free of charge. We perform a thorough 12-point inspection of the critical parts of your water heater every year and if yours is showing signs of wear, we take care of everything including parts, repairs, and upgrades.

Replacing a water heater can be a daunting task, but that’s why we’re here to help provide you with easy and convenient service from start to finish. Why buy, when you can rent! If you’re suspicious of your water heater becoming run down, here’s a list of signs that its time for a replacement.
There’s A Leak
If you notice a leak underneath or by your water heater it may be time to replace it. Be sure to quickly inspect where the water source is coming from to rule out any loose pipes or fittings. If you’re unsure of the leak source and severity, be sure to contact us to help assist you with further inspection and water heater replacement.
Your Water Comes Out Rusty
If the water in your home comes out rusty or metallic when you turn on your taps, your water heater might need replacing. Be sure to test this to ensure it’s not your pipes by very carefully (caution: hot water!) draining three buckets of water from the tank. If by the third bucket, the water is still rusty or metallic, it is a sign that your water heater is rotting from the inside. If you need replacing or assistance assessing the rust source, contact us right away.
Your Unit Makes A Lot of Sound
If your water heater is not serviced regularly, it can begin collecting a buildup of sediment in the tank. Once there is a solid buildup, it can create a rumbling sound as your water heater is trying to work. This buildup can also cause leaks over time, deteriorating your water heater faster than expected. If you’re experiencing this, be sure to book a maintenance appointment with us so that we can assess the severity of the situation.
It’s 10 Years or Older
A water heater’s lifetime is around ten years depending on how often you get it serviced and the type of care it has received. If your water heater is approaching or past its ten-year mark, we suggest exploring new options. Rather than buy, consider renting and save yourself some hassle – did we mention we offer free maintenance?
Unsure about how old your water heater is? Be sure to check the install label’s date or check the serial number.

We offer only rent the best water heaters on the market to ensure the best user experience. Our range of Bradford White water heaters allows you to select the option that will best suit your needs whether you’re in need of a residential or commercial system.
Water Heaters
At Reliance, we offer both electric and gas Bradford White water heaters to provide you with an option that best suits your needs. Each system type runs differently from one another to provide you with hot water in your home.
Gas water heaters work by having cold water flow into the tank, which is then heated by a gas burner. This form brings extremely hot gas into the middle of the chimney in the tank. Once the chimney is hot, the gas will then flow out and will slowly heat the water. As the hot water rises in the tank, it begins to flow through the pipes of your home.
Electric water heaters essentially work the same as a gas water heater with the water being heated, rising to the top of the tank and then flowing through the pipes of your home. The only major difference between the two is that the water is heated using electric elements, thus the heater must be plugged into a power supply.

As the reality of winter begins to set in it’s tempting to want to take that extra hot bath and extend your morning shower, if only for a few seconds longer before you have to go out and brave the cold. But when all is said and done, you may end up paying the price when you receive your hot water bill next month!
Luckily, Reliance Heath has a few ideas on how you can save some extra money come next month! Check out the top 5 tips to reduce your water heater bill.
1) Fill Up Your Dishwasher
It’s tempting to want to start that half-full dishwasher simply because you want to “get it out of the way.” However, ensuring that you fully load your dishwasher every time you run it can save you loads of money every month.
According to Energy Star, if you are preparing at least two meals a day for a family of four, you could save more than 75% in energy and water costs by running your dishwasher instead of hand washing your dishes. Ensure maximum dish space by loading your dishwasher in the most efficient way possible.
2) Check For Leaks
You’d be surprised just how much water gets wasted when you leave a leak running without properly fixing it. From dripping showerheads to leaking faucets, over 10,000 gallons of water is wasted in a home over the course of a year. Save money and time spent on fixing costly leaks by regularly checking your faucets.
3) Fill the Tub Halfway
Trying to beat the winter blues by taking a few extra baths here and there? Although showers prove to be a much more efficient way of saving water, a bath is an enjoyable and relaxing way to end the day.
The next time you go to take your bath fill the tub just over halfway to save up to 12 gallons of water per bath! Every time you fill the tub you’re looking at using roughly 70 gallons of water! Saving 12 gallons of water a few times a week can add up over time!
4) Do Full Loads of Laundry
Stop doing those 3-4 half loads of laundry every week and save water by planning to do 1-2 full loads of laundry! Plan ahead and strategically do your loads of laundry twice per week to save over 30 gallons of water per week and reduce your water heater bill!
Cold washes are also a great way to avoid using unnecessary amounts of hot water!
5) Use Energy-Efficient Products
Using Energy Star-rated products, whether it be for your dishwasher, laundry machine, etc. is an amazing and sneaky way to reduce your water bill costs in the long run.
An Energy Star dishwasher typically costs $35 per year to run and can save you up to 3,870 gallons of water throughout its lifetime.
Energy Star rated washing machines use 6 fewer gallons of water per use compared to standard washers for a total of 1,800 gallons of water saved per year.
Save Your Money
When it comes down to it, saving money on your monthly water bill is the main goal. By implementing one or a number of these tips, you could see a notable decrease in your overall spendings, contributing to a significant decrease over time! Get ready to reduce your water heater bill and save some dollars!
