Buying Your Existing Rental Water Heater

Of course we want to continue to provide you with a high-quality, worry-free rental. However, if you change your mind at any time, you can easily choose to buy the water heater that you're already renting from us. By buying your existing rental water heater from Direct Energy Home Services, your upfront cost is discounted to reflect the age of your water heater, and you'll avoid the inconvenience of installing a new one. Or, you may terminate service with us at any time.

Rent or buy?

Buying a water heater can include hidden costs, making your purchase more expensive in the long run. If you're looking to buy, make sure you consider the following factors:

Installation, delivery charges and sales tax
Advertised prices may not include all these extra charges. Be sure to get a full quote.

Service & parts replacement costs
A water heater typically requires service an average of three times over its useful life. Service and repairs can be unexpected and costly, as you can see in Repair Costs.

Warranty coverage
Read the fine print under warranty coverage. Find out about the exclusions such as who pays for labour and any other conditions associated with a warranty claim. Also find out how long the parts are covered under warranty and whom you can call to get repair coverage.

Length of time you will be in your current home
If you are planning to sell your home, you may not capture the value of the water heater in the sale price to the new owner.
