Water Heaters for Burnaby Homeowners

Water Heater Installation — Burnaby, BC

A failing water heater is one of the top emergency calls we get — and one of the easiest to handle quickly. DirectBuy Furnace installs and replaces conventional tank water heaters, tankless on-demand systems, and heat pump water heaters across the Lower Mainland with same-day or next-day service.

We assess your hot water demand and household size; recommend the right system (40-gal tank for small homes, 50–60 gal for typical, tankless for high-demand or space-constrained installs, heat pump water heater for maximum efficiency); install with proper venting and gas/electrical connections; and pull the necessary permits.

Burnaby specifics: Burnaby's hilly geography creates microclimates: South Slope and Big Bend run a bit warmer; Burnaby Mountain runs colder and wetter. We size systems for the actual elevation and exposure of your specific lot, not a generic Burnaby average. Burnaby strata properties (townhomes, low-rises) often require coordination with property managers — we handle the strata package as part of our service.

Burnaby Water Heaters FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a water heater last in BC?

Conventional tank water heaters last 10–13 years on average. Tankless systems last 18–22 years. If your tank is 10+ years old and showing signs of corrosion, plan for replacement before it fails.

Should I switch to tankless?

Tankless systems make sense for high-demand households (4+ people, multiple bathrooms running simultaneously) or where space is tight. For typical 2–3 person households, a quality tank is often more economical over a 15-year horizon.

What's a heat pump water heater?

A heat pump water heater uses ambient heat from the surrounding air to heat water — roughly 3× more efficient than electric resistance. They qualify for BC Hydro rebates and pay back the price premium in 4–6 years.

How much does AC installation cost in Burnaby?

Can you install heat pumps in Burnaby townhomes?

Yes. Most townhomes use ductless mini-splits since the ducting for traditional central AC isn't there. Strata approval is usually required and we handle the application as part of our quote.
