Frequently Asked Questions About Water Heaters
-
Most traditional tank water heaters last 8 to 12 years. Tankless water heaters can last 15 to 20 years with proper maintenance. Factors like water quality, usage levels, and annual servicing can impact lifespan. If your system is over 10 years old, it may be time to consider replacement before it fails.
-
Tank water heaters cost less upfront and are ideal for standard household usage. Tankless systems provide endless hot water, higher efficiency, and a longer lifespan but require a larger initial investment. The best choice depends on your household size, water usage, and budget. We help homeowners in Southwestern Ontario determine the right fit during a consultation.
-
In many cases, yes. Tankless systems are more energy efficient and eliminate the risk of running out of hot water. However, installation may require gas line upgrades or venting adjustments. For larger households or homes planning long-term ownership, tankless can offer strong long-term value.
-
Yes. Many Ontario homeowners are locked into rental agreements. Platinum Air Care assists with removing rental tanks and transitioning to owned systems. We can help you understand your contract and guide you through the cancellation process.

Most standard tank replacements can be completed in 2 to 4 hours. Tankless installations may take longer depending on venting, gas supply, and electrical requirements. Our technicians ensure proper installation, testing, and code compliance before leaving your home.

Water heater sizing depends on:
Number of bathrooms
Number of occupants
Simultaneous hot water usage
Appliance demand
