Halifax water heaters

Hot water for Nova Scotia homes

Most homes in Halifax and across Nova Scotia run on an electric tank water heater, and many of those tanks are getting old.

When yours is due, you have two good options. A new electric tank is the simple swap. A hybrid (heat pump) water heater pulls heat from the air around it and uses far less electricity, which adds up with Nova Scotia power rates.

We size the unit to your household, so the hot water lasts through busy mornings. Our crews install across Halifax, Dartmouth, Bedford and Sackville, and travel the province to Truro, Windsor, the Valley and the South Shore.

FAQs

Halifax water heater questions we hear every week

It depends on your home: the type and size you need, your electrical panel and your plumbing. Most Nova Scotia homes use electric tank water heaters. We offer a free assessment and a written quote with the full price, and you can pay over time.

Often, yes. Most Nova Scotia homes heat water with electricity, and a heat pump water heater uses far less of it than a standard electric tank. It costs more upfront and may qualify for rebates. We'll check what applies to your home at your free assessment.

Most tank water heaters last about 10 to 15 years, and tankless units often last 20 years or more. Yearly flushing and a good install help. If yours is leaking or rusty, it's time to price a replacement.

If two or more major parts of your new water heater fail in the first 24 months, we replace the whole unit at no cost to you. Keep up with the recommended maintenance to stay covered. See our guarantees page for the full terms.

We serve homes across Nova Scotia from our Dartmouth office, including HRM, Truro and Windsor, the Annapolis Valley, the South Shore, Pictou County, Antigonish and Amherst. Most of our Nova Scotia work is outside the city, so rural homes are normal for us. Call (902) 446-0155 to check your address.

One of our advisors comes to your home, from a Dartmouth bungalow to a Valley farmhouse, and looks at your heating, basement, ducts and electrical panel. Then you sit down together and go through your options in plain words, including when a change isn't worth it. You get a written quote with the full price. It's free, with no pressure to sign.

Yes. You can pay outright or finance your new system and pay monthly. Rentals aren't offered in Nova Scotia. If paying over time matters to you, say so early and we'll build the quote around a monthly amount you're comfortable with. Your advisor puts your options side by side in writing at your free assessment, and there's no pressure to decide on the day.
