Us to You

Stop shivering through cold showers. Praise Plumbing provides expert repair, maintenance, and installation for gas, electric, and high-efficiency heat pump water heaters across the Greater Victoria area. We offer transparent, upfront pricing on top brands and help you navigate the latest BC Hydro and FortisBC energy rebates (often up to $1,000+)

As Red Seal Certified specialists, we don't just swap tanks; we ensure your system is optimized for Victoria’s water quality to prevent premature corrosion. From annual tank flushes to 24/7 emergency replacements in Langford, Saanich, or Sidney, we keep the hot water flowing safely and efficiently.

The Importance of Maintenance

Many homeowners are unaware that water heaters require annual maintenance to operate safely and efficiently. Over time, sediment from minerals in the water builds up at the bottom of the tank. This sediment acts as an insulator, forcing the burner or element to work twice as hard to heat the water, driving up your energy bills. For tanks, we perform flushes and check the anode rod—a "sacrificial" metal rod designed to attract rust so your tank doesn't. If the anode rod is depleted, your tank will rust out and leak. For On-Demand units and Boilers, descaling is vital to keep the heat exchanger clean and functioning. A simple "tune-up" can add years to the life of your unit.

Knowing When to Replace

Nothing lasts forever. If your unit is old, outdated, or no longer efficient, it may be costing you more in repairs and utility bills than a replacement would. Signs of a failing unit include rust-colored water, strange rumbling noises (kettling), or running out of hot water faster than usual.

Upgrading for Efficiency

We would love to help you choose a replacement that fits your lifestyle.

• Standard Tanks: Reliable and lower upfront cost. Great for standard demand.

• On-Demand (Tankless): Infinite hot water and high energy efficiency. These wall-mounted units free up floor space and only heat water when you need it.

• Boilers: The powerhouse of home heating and hot water.
