Hot Water Heaters in Winnipeg, MB
Gas Hot Water Heater
Traditional gas water heaters have been the most popular choice for many years due to their lower cost and ability to heat water in a reasonable amount of time. Depleting an entire 40gallon gas water heater from all it’s hot water will leave you waiting about 15 minutes or so before you once again have a full tank of new hot water to draw from. These tanks are 53% efficient but in spite of that low score, are popular due to our affordable natural gas rates here in Manitoba.

Electric Water Heaters
Another type of electric water heater is the Rheem Marathon water heaters.
These tanks come in many different sizes but the main differences are that the tanks are made of plastic and are guaranteed for life. They also have very well insulated exterior walls. These electric tanks come in small sizes for ‘point of use’ tanks and very large 80 gallon sizes.
Tankless Water Heater
Never run out of hot water again!
If you have a big family, have a great big Jacuzzi tub you need to fill or you’re simply lacking space, the tankless water heater may be the solution you’ve been looking for. Rather than storing hot water in a tank the old-fashioned way, the tankless unit provides on-demand service and instant hot water. When the water runs through the system, it is exposed to extreme bursts of energy powered by gas or electricity that immediately heat the water. It is hot water, on demand. Although the tankless water heater has a higher price tag, the operating costs are generally more affordable than the conventional tank unit because the water is only heated once before it is used. Tankless heaters are also over 95% efficient! What a lot of people do not know is that a normal 40gl gas hot water tank brand new are about 53% efficient. So, if you don’t think you want to afford a tankless, you’re paying for it anyway in the long run with money exhausting up your chimney.
