Step 1 Select your water heater

Our superior quality water heaters are made exclusively for HydroSolution right here in Quebec. In addition to being eco-efficient, they come with a 10-year warranty against leaks. They’re available in two sizes: the 40-gallon water heater is ideal for households that don’t have a high water usage (one to three people) or for smaller spaces. Our 60-gallon water heater is a good option for homes with 3 people or more or for people who frequently take baths and use their dishwasher or washing machine several times a day.

An electric water heater is easy to install and use. In fact, it’s the most popular type of water heater in Canada. It’s cost-effective and energy efficient, making it an excellent choice. Moreover, most of the electricity produced in Quebec comes from our immense water reserves, a renewable source of clean energy.

To install a 40-gallon water heater, you’ll need a vertical clearance of 60 inches (152 cm) and a horizontal clearance of 24 inches (61 cm). For a 60-gallon water heater, you’ll need a vertical clearance of 72 inches (183 cm) and a horizontal clearance of 25.5 inches (65 cm).
You also need to keep in mind that the water heater must get from your front door to the location where it will be installed. Make sure the path is unobstructed to avoid damaging your furniture. For more information, visit https://www.hydrosolution.com/en/installation/

Unlike a regular dual-element water heater, the ECOPEAK® model includes three elements, each with a different wattage. That means the water is heated inside the tank more slowly and consistently throughout the day, resulting in fewer energy peaks.

The quality of an ECOPEAK® water heater, its life expectancy, and its reliability are similar to standard 60-gallon water heaters available from HydroSolution.

HydroSolution water heaters come with a 10-year warranty against tank leaks, an 8-year warranty on parts, and a 1-year warranty on labour. If you rent your water heater, the parts and labour are included.

HydroSolution’s water heaters are designed with a cold water entry in the bottom of the tank. That means the cold water does not come into direct contact with the hot water on the top of the tank – resulting in less energy use. You’ll get 10% more hot water than with a standard model where the cold water enters from the top.
