Water Heater Installation in Prince Edward County
We size an electric tank to your household and install it properly the first time. If you've been renting a tank for years, we'll show you the real math on owning one instead. Flat-rate quote, and the old unit leaves with us.
The Right Tank for the Way Your House Uses Hot Water
Electric Tanks
Electric tanks from 40 to 75 gallons, sized to what your household actually uses.
Right-Sized Upgrades
Moving up a size when the household grew and the hot water stopped keeping up.
Rental Changeovers
Swapping a rented tank for one you own, with the old unit set out ready for pickup.
Full Replacements
Old tank pulled, connections brought up to code, and the new one commissioned and tested.
A Water Heater Is Only as Good as the Install
Most premature tank failures around here trace back to sediment or an undersized unit, not the brand on the label. We size it for your household, protect it from the hard water that wears tanks out early, and pull permits where the work calls for one. If your water is chewing through tanks, a water softener will do more for the next one than a bigger warranty will.
- Sized on how your household actually uses hot water
- Water and electrical connections done to code

Water Heater Installation Questions, Answered
Sizing, rentals and what we do and don't install. The questions we get asked most before an install gets booked.
Ten to fifteen years is typical for an electric tank. Hard water shortens that, and it matters on well systems and municipal supplies alike, because sediment builds up either way. If your tank is past ten years and starting to act up, planning a replacement beats waiting for it to let go onto a finished floor. We'll tell you honestly whether yours has life left in it.
Most Ontario households renting a tank pay somewhere between 30 and 60 dollars a month, which adds up to far more than the unit costs over its life. Since Ontario's Homeowner Protection Act took effect in June 2024, existing notices of security interest on rented equipment no longer sit against your property, so switching is more straightforward than it used to be. Read your rental agreement for the return process first. We'll install the owned unit and leave the old tank ready for pickup.
Not at the moment. We install electric tanks, and we'd rather say that plainly than take on work that isn't our lane. We're still happy to talk you through how tankless and gas units differ, what they cost to run and where they make sense, so you can make the call with real information. For most households around here, a properly sized electric tank does the job and is far simpler to service.
A 40-gallon tank suits most two- to three-person households, and 50 or 60 gallons fits larger families or a home with a soaker tub. On electric, recovery rate matters as much as volume, because the tank reheats more slowly than people expect. Undersizing means cold showers and oversizing means paying to heat water nobody uses. We size it on what your household actually does, not on a chart.
A straight tank-for-tank swap usually takes two to three hours start to finish. If the water or electrical connections need bringing up to code, add a couple of hours to that. We'll give you a realistic window when you book, not a vague all-day promise. Booties go on at the door and the old unit leaves with us.

What County & Quinte Homeowners Say
The reviews we hear most often aren't really about the pipes. Yes, a real person answers the phone, but what people write about is what happened at the house: a friendly face at the door, a crew that treated the place like their own, and the job done right the first time.
"My last plumbing repair was under $200.00. David was nice and professional."
"Great people, fast efficient service. Thanks!"
"A quick call to Morandin Plumbing and crisis averted! With guests arriving in the afternoon, we rang up Morandin for some help with a failed shower, which just wouldn't shut off. We're talking Niagara Falls here. Dave was in within a few hours and fixed it all up. Excellent, courteous service. Clean work. Thanks so much!"
"Super responsive, quick appointment time, excellent customer service and super pleasant and professional - highly recommend and will call them again when needed."
