Hot Water Tanks

Hot water is often taken for granted until your water heater doesn’t work. Whether you’re trying to wash dishes, have a shower, bathe children or wash clothes, it can be very inconvenient to manage without hot water. If you buy a hot water tank or tankless water heater for your home from Flow, you never have to worry about this uncomfortable problem again. When it comes to keeping your family cozy and warm, the right water heater is just as important to your comfort as the right furnace.

CONSIDERATIONS

Choosing the Right Hot Water Heater

1.
Do you have a large family with teenagers or kids?
2.
Do you have more than one bathroom and the shower or bath is often busy?
3.
Do you use your dishwasher daily?
4.
Do you have a hot tub?

All of these questions are important when choosing the best hot water heater for your home. Choosing a water heater that is too small will cause you to run out of hot water and will shorten the water heaters’ lifespan. Flow is uniquely qualified as specialists in climate control and plumbing. Our expert plumbers can guide you through every step of choosing a hot water heater to make sure that you have the right model for your needs.

Tankless vs. Storage

Tankless vs. Storage Tank Water Heaters

Tankless hot water heaters provide continuous hot water by using gas or electricity to heat cold water as it is needed. This reduces energy consumption significantly and decreases monthly costs, but expect to spend more initially on your tankless hot water heaters. Hot water tanks always store hot water, so they are perfect for high usage.

If you are not sure if a tankless model is right for you, or even if you don't know anything about the right water heater, Flow is here to help.

We are proud to sell quality water heaters from proven brands, such as Rheem, Noritz and Bradford White. Call us for product information on these hot water tanks and water heater models.

Water Softeners

We are fortunate to experience mountain fresh air and clean drinking water, but unfortunately, this fresh water has high levels of calcium and magnesium which cause hard water. Hard water can leave our hair and skin feeling dry and itchy, coat sinks and showers with white scaly residue, cause dull looking laundry and reduce the lifespan of our appliances. If you are experiencing issues with hard water, installing a water softener may be the solution for your home.

Water Softener Installation

We recommend hiring a professional when it comes to your home’s plumbing. Flow has a team of qualified and trained plumbing specialists to install your new water softener or replace your existing water softener. We follow the manufacturer’s instructions for each water softener installation. If you'd like more information regarding a water softener or want help determining the best water softener for your home, please give us a call.

Water Softener Maintenance & Repairs

Water Heaters operating on hard water use up to 30% more energy. By cleaning and maintaining your water softener unit you can avoid needing repairs.

Keeping your unit working well requires adding the right solution to your water softener system, cleaning the brine tank and replacing the resin. If you do not feel confident doing this yourself you can call a Flow technician to do any maintenance or repairs on your water softener for you. If your water softener is not operating correctly, we can help.

QUESTIONS

Common Questions

How Hard is My Water?
Calgary water hardness varies by region. North Calgary’s water supply is from the Bow River, while south Calgary’s water supply is from the Elbow River. Residents living in the south of Calgary may have harder water than those living in the north due to the higher concentration of calcium carbonate in the Elbow River.
What Can I Do If I Have Hard Water?
If you have hard water, an easy solution is to install a water softener in your home. A water softener is a unit with a mineral tank that holds a brine solution made from water softener salt. The hard water cycles through the unit which pulls the magnesium and calcium from the water. There are also saltless water softeners and reverse osmosis systems that soften your hard water.
What is the Best Water Softener?
There are a few different options you can consider when choosing a water softener for your water. We can help you choose the best water softener unit for your home and your budget. Flow recommends Novo Water Softeners.
How Much Does A Water Softener Installation Cost?
The cost to install a water softener depends on which unit you choose and whether you want to service just one part of your home or install a whole home water softener system.
