Stop Renting, Start Owning, Begin Saving
An estimated 60% of Ontario residents see something like this every month. On the surface, it might seem reasonable – but let’s do the math.
Using hot water tanks as an example: the average hot water tank is expected to last around 10 years. $54.20 x 12 months x 10 years = $6504.
Of course, there are variables to consider when purchasing a water heater, and these variables can impact the price. But the point is that your water heater rental payments are going to cost you twice what purchasing a water heater outright would.
Imagine paying a subscription service for your microwave, oven, and refrigerator indefinitely—all of which cost at least 200% of the price to purchase outright in the long run.

Ever wondered how much you could save by owning your water heater instead of renting?
Our handy calculator can help you find out!
That’s right! Most Ontario residents are overpaying for water heaters by about 50%!
Cancelling a water heater rental agreement can be a daunting and frustrating process for many homeowners.
Hidden fees, long-term contracts, and complicated cancellation procedures often create a labyrinth of obstacles that make it challenging to break free from rental commitments. These hurdles drain not only your time and energy but also your finances, as monthly payments will continue until the rented water heater is returned – often with no rental end in sight.
Navigating the complexities of cancelling a water heater rental can be overwhelming.
Many rental companies require customers to undertake several cumbersome steps, including contacting customer service, arranging the disconnection of the rental unit, and managing the return process, often incurring additional fees.
Our team will communicate with your rental company, manage the disconnection and removal of the rented water heater, and ensure it is returned according to the company’s requirements.
By choosing John The Plumber, you can avoid the stress and hassle of dealing with complicated cancellation procedures, allowing you to transition smoothly to owning your water heater and enjoying long-term savings and convenience.
Water heater rentals, typically costing $35 to $60 + HST per month, attract homeowners due to their lower initial expenses. While renting spreads costs over time, it leads to higher long-term expenses.

John The Plumber, in partnership with FinanceIt, offers you the chance to own a state-of-the-art, energy-efficient water heater with low monthly payments and flexible terms that can meet your budget – without all the fingerprint.
