Toronto water heater installation: gas, electric or heat pump, which one fits your home?
Picking a water heater is not only about the price tag. The type you choose decides what you pay to run it every year after install day.
Gas is usually the cheapest to run right now and handles big family demand well, but it needs a gas line, proper venting, and it is the least efficient of the three.
Standard electric is the cheapest to buy and the simplest to install, yet with Ontario hydro rates it usually costs the most to run. Fine short term, weak long term.
A heat pump water heater is far more efficient and has the lowest running cost of the three. It costs more up front, needs extra space, and wants a spot that stays above 5 degrees, like a warmer basement or utility room.
In Toronto homes from Leslieville and Riverdale to The Annex and The Beaches, the space you have often decides it.
