If you have an older, inefficient B-vent hot water tank, now is the perfect time to upgrade to a high-efficiency tankless water heater—and FortisBC is offering up to $3,000 in rebates for income-qualified customers to make the switch more affordable than ever.
As an HPCN-approved contractor, Crest Mechanical Corp. is authorized to carry out this upgrade, making you eligible for the rebate.
💸 What Is the Rebate?
FortisBC’s Income-Qualified Water Heater Rebate offers:
- Up to $3,000 when replacing an old natural gas water heater with a qualifying condensing tankless or condensing storage tank model.
- An additional $350 bonus rebate when bundled with another qualifying energy upgrade (e.g., insulation or smart thermostat).
This rebate is designed to help qualifying homeowners reduce upfront costs while saving energy and lowering monthly gas bills.
🛠 Why Replace Your B-Vent Tank with a Tankless Water Heater?
Most homes in BC still use atmospheric vent (B-vent) water heaters, which are outdated and inefficient. Replacing them with a modern tankless unit offers major advantages:
- Lower Energy Bills: Tankless systems only heat water when you need it.
- Endless Hot Water: No running out during back-to-back showers.
- More Space: Wall-mounted tankless units free up floor space.
- Eco-Friendly: Reduced greenhouse gas emissions.
- Longer Lifespan: Up to 20 years with proper maintenance.
✅ Are You Eligible?
To qualify for the rebate, you must:
- Be a FortisBC residential natural gas customer.
- Meet income eligibility requirements
- Live in a home at least 10 years old, used year-round.
- Replace an existing water heater—new installs don’t qualify.
- Hire an HPCN-approved contractor like Crest Mechanical Corp. (mandatory).
