Water Tank

bluemountain

Anybody knows which company is good to replace water tank, I call a few companies and they qoute me the price is a bit different, the range is very big.  Hillcrxxt Plumbing quotes me around $900 sth + tax and Wai Fxx Heat & Plumbing quotes me around $600 sth + tax, any other suggestion?  Need help, please!

be careful! my parents had some bad experience with some guy (not Wai Fxx) qouting them a lot less than others.  And ended up with a MUCH smaller tank than their place neede. He even asking my mom to help him move the tank!! WTF... And my mom called a friend to help.
They are now stuck with this small tank and don't have enough hot water for everyone to shower in the evening....
I think Wai Fxx qouted them $1200 or something like that....

You can also try Home Depot.  Longer warranty and good service...of course no free lunch, expect to pay a little more.

Will you consider tankless hot water system?

when you get the quote, you better ask the tank info. as well.

"""Will you consider tankless hot water system? """  how does that work?

Tankless is common in HK but fewer in here.  In such system you don't need a tank to store hot water so it takes up less space.  How you get hot water is when you open the tap, water flow will trigger the burner which heats up the water instantaneously so you get endless hot water supply.
