If you're paying Enercare $35–$60/month to rent your Calgary hot water tank, you're paying for the same tank 3× over the next 10 years. Here's exactly what it costs to buy your own brand-new tank outright and break even in under 3 years.
You only pay once a vetted Calgary installer accepts your job.
Enercare's standard Calgary rental rate for a 40-gal gas tank is $35–$60/month (the older the contract, the worse the rate). Over 10 years that's $4,200–$7,200 — and at the end you still don't own the tank. If the tank fails, Enercare replaces it, but you keep paying forever.
A brand-new Rheem 40-gal gas tank installed in Calgary through Smarter Service is $1,700 all-in. You own it. The 6-year manufacturer warranty is yours. The full 10–12 year lifespan is yours.
Call Enercare to request a buy-out quote (or 'return' if you're past the term). Book a Smarter Service install — same-week across Calgary. On install day, your contractor swaps the tank, hauls the old Enercare unit to the curb, and Enercare picks it up. We've done this dozens of times across Mahogany, Cranston, Tuscany, Evanston, Bridgeland and Kensington — there's nothing to figure out.
