Step-by-Step Hot Water Tank Installation in Coquitlam

01

Assessment & Consultation

We start by assessing your specific needs:

  • What size tank will suit your home and family’s water usage?

  • Do you prefer a gas or electric hot water tank?

  • How many people live in your home, and what is your average water consumption (showers, laundry, etc.)?

  • If you have an existing tank, we evaluate its condition to determine whether it’s time for a replacement

Based on this information, we’ll help you choose the best tank option for your home, balancing efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

02

Turning Off Utilities

Safety first is our priority:

  • We ensure that electricity or gas is safely disconnected.

  • We shut off the water supply to prevent any leaks or water damage during the removal or installation.

03

Draining and Removing the Old Tank

If you’re replacing an older unit:

  • We begin by draining the old tank completely to remove all water.

  • Next, we disconnect power and water lines to prepare for the new system.

  • We safely remove and dispose of the old tank, leaving your space clean.

04

Preparing the Installation Area

We thoroughly inspect the area:

  • We check the floor stability and ensure it’s level for a secure tank installation.

  • We ensure there is enough clearance around the new tank for maintenance and safety.

  • If it’s a gas-powered tank, we make sure that ventilation is up to code.

  • We also ensure proper drainage for the pressure relief valve, which is critical for safety.

05

Installing the New Hot Water Tank

Once the area is prepared, we proceed with the installation:

  • We position the new tank in place.

  • We connect the cold water inlet and hot water outlet.

  • Depending on your tank type, we either connect gas lines or electrical wiring to the system.

  • We install the temperature & pressure relief valve and drain line, ensuring everything meets code requirements.

06

Filling the Tank and Testing Connections

After the new tank is installed:

  • We fill the tank with cold water.

  • We bleed the air from the system by opening hot water taps in your home.

  • We check all connections for leaks and ensure everything is secure.

07

Turning On Power or Gas

Once the tank is filled:

  • We turn on power for electric models or ignite the pilot light for gas models.

  • We allow the system to heat up to its operating temperature and adjust the thermostat settings.

08

Final Testing & Safety Checks

After powering up the system:

  • We test the water temperature to ensure it’s correct.

  • We check the relief valve to ensure it operates safely.

  • We check the operation of burners (for gas) or heating elements (for electric).

  • We verify that all gas and electrical connections are safe and leak-free.

  • We also inspect ventilation and drainage.

09

Clean-Up & Walkthrough

After completing the installation:

  • We clean up the area, leaving your space as neat as we found it.

  • We walk you through how to operate the new system, including adjusting the thermostat and maintenance tips to keep your system running smoothly.

  • We’ll provide you with any relevant manuals and warranties for your new system.

When Should You Replace Your Hot Water Tank in Coquitlam?

If you’re noticing any of the following issues, it might be time to replace your old tank:

  • Your tank is over 10–12 years old.

  • There’s visible leaking or rust-colored water.

  • Your water runs out too quickly.

  • Frequent repairs are needed.

We’ll be happy to inspect your current tank and recommend whether it should be repaired or replaced.

  • Any necessary updates to plumbing or venting systems.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hot Water Tank Installation in Coquitlam

Yes, a permit is typically required. We handle the necessary permits and inspections for you.

A 4050 gallon tank is ideal for most families of four, but we’ll help you choose based on your home’s specific needs.

It’s not recommended to install a hot water tank yourself. Improper installation can lead to safety hazards, including gas leaks and electrical issues. Let the professionals handle it.

Hired Centrum Solutions to diagnose and fix our broken heat pump. Amir was very courteous and thorough, and took the time needed to explain everything. Would hire them again!

We first contacted Centrum back in the winter inquiring about the heat pump. Amir was extremely knowledgeable and helpful when it came to choosing the right system for our home. We ended up reaching out again in April and getting the heat pump installed at the end of the May as we wanted to take advantage of the available rebates and Amir & Jenneth made it happen for us and they continued to assist us after while we were applying for the Loan & Rebates. We’re so happy to have AC in our home for the summer and would 100% recommend Centrum Solutions to anyone.

We had them come over to our place for a consultation to install a new Heat pump. Amir was amazing in explaining me everything and took time answering my questions. Jenneth also helped me answer all questions and filling up the application for FortisBC rebates. We ended up paying exactly what was quoted and no extra hidden costs.

Installation went very good. They took great care in doing everything properly and never felt like it was rushed to just finish the work.

It's been few weeks since the installation, heating works great and just waiting to test the AC unit once the hot weather sets in. But I am sure if any issues Amir and team will help to sort it out. I will try to update the review after year when I do my yearly service maintenance with them.

The technicians were highly knowledgeable, explaining everything in detail and diagnosing the issue quickly. They arrived on time, worked efficiently, and completed the job faster than expected while maintaining top-notch quality.

Customer service was outstanding—Amir was courteous, friendly, and respectful of my home.

I also appreciated their honest and fair pricing. There were no hidden fees, and the quote they provided was accurate and reasonable for the high-quality service they delivered.

Overall, they turned what could have been a stressful situation into a smooth and hassle-free experience. I highly recommend Centrum solutions to anyone in need of reliable and professional HVAC and Plumbing services. I’ll definitely be calling them again for any future needs

We have used Centrum Solutions over the past two years for numerous projects, including 2 mini split heat pumps. Amir and Jenneth are lovely people who provide top-notch customer service. I always feel that Amir has my best interest in mind and strives to come up with a plan that takes into account my specific needs. I like knowing that I'm dealing with the owner of the company - Amir takes pride in his work, and it shows.

I had a fantastic experience with Centrum Solutions. Amir and his team, including Bernardo, installed a new heat pump at our place. Their work was exceptional, and Amir and Jenneth provided excellent communication, addressing any questions promptly. I highly recommend Centrum Solutions for their professionalism and top-notch service. Definitely deserving of a 5-star rating!

We had our hot water tank replaced with a tankless that Amir suggested and it has worked flawlessly over the last 2 years, we some small issues arise and Amir was here the same day or next to fix the issue.
He also replaced our old a/c with a new heat pump, this was a big job as our air handler was up in the attic, Amir and Bernardo removed the old unit and replaced it with new unit with precision. Even though it was hot up in the attic they never complained.
Amir was always patient to answer the many questions we asked him. He always returned my calls as many contractors never call back after a job is done.
They did an amazing job, very neat and clean work.
Would highly recommend Centrum Solutions

Centrum Team took quick action on getting a dual fuel hybrid heat pump/furnace installed that met Fortis's rebate policies. Jenneth was very helpful with ensuring the right equipment was selected and helped arrange the two assesments that were needed (air flow calc. and energuide). All around happy with the install and would recommend Centrum.

I am extremely pleased with the exceptional service provided by Centrum and their dedicated team, led by Arim. Their professionalism was evident from the outset as they efficiently handled our HVAC installation with a remarkable attention to detail. Unlike other installers, Centrum's commitment to getting the job done right the first time truly sets them apart.

Arim's excellent communication skills ensured that we were kept informed throughout the installation process, eliminating any uncertainties we might have had. It was evident that they prioritize customer satisfaction, going the extra mile to not only meet but exceed our expectations. What truly impressed us was the inclusion of some additional services, a thoughtful gesture that demonstrated their commitment to delivering value. Centrum's dedication, expertise, and focus on customer well-being make them a top choice in the HVAC industry.

We are extremely satisfied with the service provided by Centrum Solutions for the replacement of our furnace. The entire process, from receiving the initial quote to the installation, was truly enjoyable. Amir, the owner and operator of the business, impressed us with his expertise and amiable demeanor. He took the time to explain all the details, enabling us to make a well-informed decision.

Furthermore, Jenneth, the Administrative Manager, was exceptionally responsive and provided valuable assistance in securing government rebates. We wholeheartedly endorse Centrum Solutions for all heating and cooling projects and highly recommend their services

And thank you, Jenneth, for supporting the technical team and for the ultra-promptly (literally max 10 mins) responding to any of my requests and helping me with the rebate application.
