When we take a shower, we expect a steady flow of hot water to help us relax and wash up. However, when a water heater fails, that shower can quickly turn cold and uncomfortable.

Reliable water heaters do more than keep us clean—they make it possible to wash dishes, run laundry, and keep our homes running smoothly.

Regular maintenance helps prevent sudden breakdowns when you need hot water most.

Water Heater Installation & Replacement

Most water heaters last between 8 and 12 years. If the costs of repairs keep rising, it may be more cost effective to invest in a new unit. At Centennial Plumbing, Heating & Electrical, we offer installations of both conventional tanked and tankless water heaters.

Deciding to install a new water heater affects your daily comfort, energy bills, and peace of mind. Our team considers your home’s hot water needs, energy usage, and available space to suggest models that perform well in Saskatoon’s climate. We understand how the region’s cold temperatures can affect system performance and advise on solutions built for reliability. Our process always includes a review of your current setup, awareness of local code requirements, and options that can improve performance or efficiency.

A conventional tank unit typically runs on gas or electricity. These heaters warm the water and store it in the tank until needed. Most hold between 20 and 100 gallons, so you can choose a size that matches your household’s use.

With a tankless water heater, you get heated water instantly, without the need for large storage tanks. These models last longer, save space, and often use less energy since they only heat water when you request it. Homeowners with limited storage or busy schedules often prefer tankless models for their efficiency and compact size.

Water Heater Repairs

With regular use, any water heater may require repair at some point.

Quick responses matter, especially during Saskatoon’s long, cold winters. Small issues can turn into big headaches, from frozen pipes to water damage when the heater quits at the wrong moment. Our team answers your call, inspects all key parts, and clearly explains repair options. We keep our trucks stocked with many common parts so we can fix most problems during a single visit.

The following are common signs your water heater may need attention:

  • High energy bills caused by poor efficiency
  • Your unit frequently shuts off
  • Your unit is leaking or water pools beneath it
  • You hear knocking or banging sounds when your unit is running
  • A complete lack of hot water
  • There is rust in the tank

When we visit your home, we perform a thorough inspection and help you decide between repair and replacement options. We always operate honestly and never pressure you into services that you don’t need.

Keep Your Water Heater Running with Routine Maintenance

Just like you take your car in for service, your water heater needs regular maintenance to avoid breakdowns. At Centennial Plumbing, Heating & Electrical, our plumbers check your system to ensure it works as it should. If you own a tanked heater, we include a standard flush during maintenance; if we spot a quick fix, we can handle that during the same visit.

We focus on extending your water heater’s lifespan and keeping it operating efficiently. Saskatoon’s water contains minerals that create scale build-up in tanks and pipes, so annual flushing becomes even more important in our area. Routine inspections help us find corrosion, faulty valves, or other problems early and can spare you unexpected expenses for major repairs. Our visits also allow us to share tips for everyday use, so you get the most from your system, even in Saskatchewan’s tough winters.

Emergency Water Heater Services & Rapid Response in Saskatoon

Saskatoon’s cold snaps can strain even the best water heater. When your unit fails after hours, waiting until morning isn’t always practical. That’s why we offer 24/7 emergency response for urgent situations, so you’re not left without hot water when your family needs it most. When you call, you’ll reach a real person who helps arrange a prompt solution, day or night.

After decades of working with local families, we know a minor leak or heating failure can quickly disrupt daily life. Our team arrives prepared to address most issues and communicates clearly, so you always know what to expect. With every call, we outline your options, timeline, and upfront pricing so you remain in control, even in emergencies. This approach underscores our commitment: your safety and comfort matter, and we prioritize being available whenever you need us—regardless of season or time.

Local Codes, Permits & Water Heater Replacement in Saskatchewan

When you install or replace a water heater in Saskatoon, you need to follow city bylaws and provincial codes set by Saskatchewan authorities. New installations require permits and compliance with safety standards to protect you and the community. When these guidelines are followed, your water heater can operate reliably and efficiently for years.

After more than 50 years of serving Saskatoon, we understand the local inspection process and any unique requirements in the area. Our licensed team completes work that meets or exceeds all city and provincial standards. This helps homeowners avoid unexpected issues, delays, or corrections. We keep updated on local rules to ensure you receive service that keeps your home safe and helps you avoid unnecessary headaches or costs.

Upgrade to a Tankless Water Heater

If you’re looking to save money on your energy bills and enjoy a continuous supply of hot water, consider upgrading to a tankless water heater. Unlike traditional water heaters that constantly heat and store a large amount of water, tankless water heaters heat water on demand, providing hot water whenever you need it.

Benefits of tankless water heaters include:

  • Energy savings: Tankless water heaters only heat water when it’s needed, reducing energy consumption and lowering your utility bills.
  • Endless hot water: With a tankless water heater, you’ll never run out of hot water, even during peak usage times.
  • Space-saving: Tankless water heaters are compact and can be installed in smaller spaces, freeing up valuable storage space in your home.
  • Longer lifespan: Tankless water heaters have a longer lifespan compared to traditional water heaters, saving you money on replacement costs.
  • Reduced carbon footprint: By using less energy, tankless water heaters help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and minimize your environmental impact.
