CHOOSING THE RIGHT WATER HEATER FOR YOUR PROPERTY
We assist clients in selecting a system that aligns with available energy sources, property size, and water usage. Whether your property is powered by gas, electricity, or both, we offer guidance on choosing a suitable model. Gas water heaters often offer greater long-term cost efficiency, while electric models may be more practical for specific residential applications. Our team also supports the installation of propane systems and energy-efficient tankless options.
TANKLESS WATER HEATERS AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Tankless water heaters may be a viable alternative for households using under 150 litres of hot water daily. These systems typically operate with higher energy efficiency and have a longer lifespan than standard tank units. However, advancements in tank-based technology also offer dependable performance for homes with higher demand.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT WATER HEATER
The “right water heater” is always the water heater that works for your family’s daily needs. If you occasionally run out of hot water during a shower, you may consider increasing the tank’s capacity the next time you replace your water heater. You also want to find a brand that’s reliable and easy to maintain. For these reasons, Canuck Mechanical Ltd. recommends and installs Bradford White® water heaters, ensuring you get the most value out of your purchase.
Bradford White® water heaters have been ranked as some of the safest in the industry, with several studies showing 75% fewer NOx emissions than other brands. Our heating contractors also prefer Bradford White® water heaters since their magnesium anode rods efficiently heat the water in the tank.
And, since Prince George has relatively “soft” water, you can expect to gain several extra years of use from your Bradford White® unit since there is less scaling in the tank. We recommend regular maintenance to keep your water heater operating efficiently, extend its functional lifespan, and ensure the manufacturer's warranty remains valid.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Below are some of the most frequently asked questions
Why Do I Keep Running out of Hot Water?
This may be a sign that your heater needs maintenance or repairs, or it may be because you need to get a new heater installed with a bigger tank to fit your needs.
What Is the Best Temperature Setting for a Water Heater?
The default manufacturer’s setting is always at 120 degrees Fahrenheit, which is also a comfortable temperature setting for you. You can also set it up as per your needs.
Why Does the Water Take so Long to Heat Up?
This may be due to your house’s internal plumbing. Some homes have longer pipes, which means it takes longer for the hot water to reach the faucet. You can call a plumber to fix this situation. Also, electric water heaters generally take more time than gas water heaters.
Why Is My Water Heater Leaking from the Top/Bottom?
A crack in the internal tank may be the reason. It’s best to call and get it repaired or get a new heater installed.
Why Is My Water Heater Making Noises More than Usual?
This happens when your water heater isn’t regularly drained, and sediments accumulate at the bottom of the tank over time. You can call our professionals at Canuck Mechanical Ltd. right here in Prince George to check and repair the persisting problems.
