Included in your package

  • Your new tank, collected and delivered.
  • Standard plumbing connections.
  • Disconnecting the old tank’s existing electrical connection and reconnecting it to the new tank.
  • Removal and disposal of the old tank.
  • Filling, leak checks and testing.

Extras, agreed before work starts

  • A new drain pan is an optional extra.
  • An expansion tank, extra pipework or nonstandard access work is priced separately if needed.
  • Building wiring repairs, circuit upgrades and electrical alterations require an electrician and are outside these packages.

Other brands, space-saving tanks and kitchen boiling-water systems are quoted separately. After-hours pricing is confirmed separately. See how our pricing and approval process works.

Which tank do I need? We’ll work that out.

First, a few questions: how many people live at home, baths or showers, and does the hot water keep up? The tank’s age and maintenance history help too. Don’t know? Tell us what you can and we’ll check the rest.

John Wood, Rheem, A. O. Smith or another suitable electric brand available in Canada: the recommendation starts with your home’s needs and what’s available.

A tank that fits your home. And preferably through the door.

A utility cupboard, basement or narrow staircase can affect the choice of tank. We check dimensions, connections and the route for removal before recommending a model. Space-saving tanks may help in confined spaces. A photo is useful if you have one; a phone call is enough to start.

Could the old tank be repaired instead?

Sometimes. A failed element, thermostat or leaking valve may be repairable. A failed tank body changes the decision. If you need the problem assessed first, see water heater repair in North Vancouver.

House, townhouse or condo?

Electric tank replacements are available across the City and District of North Vancouver. For a condo or residential strata unit, tell us about any building access arrangements, lift bookings or water-shutoff coordination needed for the visit. We confirm what applies to your job before work is agreed.

Our service covers individual homes and residential units. Building-wide mechanical systems are outside this service.

Get your hot water sorted in three steps

  1. Tell us what’s happening. Call or book online. No model numbers needed.
  2. Approve the right solution. We check your household’s needs, space and connections, then confirm the scope and complete price.
  3. Leave the changeover to us. Delivery, removal, agreed connections and testing are handled. Before we leave, we explain when the new tank should be ready as it heats up.

Water-heater connection upgrades

As part of a Poly B repipe at a Lynn Valley home, we renewed the water-heater connections and water-entry piping, installed a new shut-off valve and pressure-reducing valve, and replaced supply lines serving the bathrooms, kitchen and laundry. This project involved the tank's plumbing connections rather than replacing the tank itself.

See this Lynn Valley plumbing project on Google.

A few practical questions

How soon can you replace my tank?

Call with what’s happening and your location. We’ll check availability, tank supply and the work needed, then agree a visit. Online booking is available anytime. After-hours emergency visits by appointment, subject to availability. Call to check. We confirm the appointment and applicable pricing before attending.

What if I need a visit before deciding?

A business-hours visit starts with a $99 + GST call-out for administration, travel and arrival with a stocked service van. Investigation, work and parts are separately priced unless included in an agreed package. We explain the next step and its price before proceeding. Each advertised replacement package already includes one business-hours call-out.

What are the advertised tanks’ specifications?

The standard John Wood packages are 240 V / 3000 W, in 40 US gallon / 151 litre and 48 US gallon / 182 litre capacities. We check suitability; you don’t need to work out the electrical requirements yourself.

Do you install under-counter boiling-water systems?

Yes, kitchen systems that provide instant boiling water at a tap. For those who consider waiting for the kettle an unnecessary hardship. These are quoted separately after checking your kitchen setup, selected model and required connections.
