Tank vs. Tankless — Honest Advice
Every property is different. We compare total cost of ownership, space, venting, electrical/gas supply, and household usage to help you decide. For many Whistler homes and rentals, a properly sized tankless system offers endless hot water and space savings; for others, an insulated high-recovery tank is the practical choice.
Maintenance That Prevents Breakdowns
Annual flush & descaling (tank & tankless)
Anode rod inspection/replacement for tank longevity
Combustion analysis and venting checks on gas units
Filter cleaning and flow verification (tankless)
Leak & relief valve testing and drip pan/drain review
Ask about seasonal service before peak rental periods or winter. For potential rebates and efficiency programs, check FortisBC.
