Common Issues in New Westminster
Century-Old Plumbing Systems
New Westminster homes from the 1900s–1940s may have galvanized pipe and cast-iron drainage systems at or well past end of life. We assess and replace these systems safely, with sensitivity to heritage structures and city regulations.
Heritage Radiator Boiler Systems
Hot-water radiator boiler systems are common in New Westminster's older housing. We service, repair, and where needed replace these systems — preserving radiant heat comfort with modern efficiency and reliability.
Aging Clay-Tile Sewer Infrastructure
New Westminster's oldest neighbourhoods have clay-tile sewer mains and service laterals that crack, shift, and attract root intrusion. Camera inspection is essential before any drain work in these historically complex areas.

Common Questions About Tankless Water Heater in New Westminster
How much does tankless water heater installation cost in Coquitlam?
Tankless water heater installation in Coquitlam typically costs $2,500–$5,000+ depending on the brand, BTU capacity, whether a gas line upgrade is needed, and venting requirements. While the upfront cost is higher than a tank unit, long-term energy savings and the endless hot water benefit are significant.
Do I need to upgrade my gas line for a tankless water heater?
Possibly. Tankless water heaters draw significantly more BTUs than tank units during firing (up to 199,000 BTU/hr for large units vs. 36,000–50,000 for a tank). We assess your existing gas meter capacity and line size during the installation quote. If an upgrade is needed, we handle it as part of the installation.
What is the best tankless water heater brand for Coquitlam?
Navien, Rinnai, and Noritz are among the most popular and reliable brands we install in Coquitlam. All are well-suited to natural gas, have strong parts availability, and respond well to the Lower Mainland's water conditions. The best brand for you depends on your budget, flow rate needs, and desired features.
How often does a tankless water heater need to be serviced?
Annual maintenance is recommended — including descaling (flushing with a descaling solution), inlet filter cleaning, and a combustion check. Skipping annual maintenance is the most common cause of premature tankless water heater failure in BC.
