Tankless Water Heaters
Instead of the traditional large volume tank for a water heater, a tankless water heater heats the water as needed as it passes through the appliance, providing endless hot water.
Gas Fireplaces and Inserts
Gas fireplaces with fine finishing, realistic full fires and customized options allow you to match design elements on your fireplace to your home. Direct vent gas fireplaces and a gas fireplace insert can be vented directly through a wall or roof.
Woodstoves & Fireplaces
High-efficiency wood stoves provide atmosphere and are a very versatile home heating appliance. The dry heat from a wood stove works very well in our climate.
Natural Gas is currently 1/3 (Hydro Tier 1) to 1/4 (Hydro Tier 2)
The price of electricity, with natural gas rates now being the energy equivalent of 3.5 cents per KWH. This rate includes delivery, midstream, cost of gas and carbon tax. In comparison, electricity from BC Hydro is 9.1 cents per KWH at Tier 1 Rates, and 13.51 cents per KWH for Tier 2 Rates. This rate includes applicable rate riders.
This price discrepancy means that a natural gas furnace with electric AC is more economical to operate than a heat pump, and has the added bonus of being more affordable on average to purchase.
