Hot Water Tank FAQs
-
How hot is the water inside my electric/gas hot water storage tank?
Most manufacturers’ recommended setting is 150°F internally on electric and gas hot water storage tanks. This temperature is required in order to kill any bacteria within the water.
-
Can the temperature of my tank be turned down?
We can adjust your electric/gas hot water storage tank’s thermometer to 140°F. If you require a lower temperature, The Government of Ontario mandates that homeowners install an anti-scald device that allows the tank’s internal temperature to remain at 140°F - 150°F; however, the temperature you receive at your faucets is 120°F.
-
Can I change the size of my hot water storage tank?
Depending on your specific home and your needs, we offer a variety of different sizes for all types of electric and gas hot water storage tanks.
-
Why do I always run out of hot water?
Depending on the type of tank and your specific needs, your tank and/or your plumbing could be in need of repair, or perhaps you simply need a larger tank. If you are continually running out of hot water because your tank is too small, then you should consider an on-demand tankless system.
-
When should I replace my hot water tank?
It depends on the age of your tank. Have you noticed a decrease in your amount of hot water? If you currently have an electric hot water storage tank, switching to a gas-powered tank would be more energy-efficient and save you money in the long run.
-
What are the on-demand tankless systems?
An on-demand tankless system is a gas-powered system that does not retain water. It is a small box that sits on the wall and immediately heats the water as it passes through the system. Operating at 190,000 BTUs, an on-demand tankless system is the most energy-efficient system on the market, as they only heat the water you use.
