Own Your Hot Water Tank
Stop Renting. Start Saving.
If you’re still renting your hot water tank, you’re likely spending
at least 3X more over 10 years
than you would if you owned it. Most homeowners don’t realize just how much money is going down the drain in rental fees.
At Local Own Comfort, we make it easy to switch. We offer
high-quality, energy-efficient hot water tanks
that you can
own outright, installed by trusted local professionals—with no monthly fees and no contracts.
Buy vs Rent: 10-Year Comparison
When it comes to heating your home’s water, the decision to
own or
rent your hot water tank can make a huge difference in long-term cost.
Take, for example, a
50-gallon, high-efficiency hot water tank installed by Local Owned Comfort for
$2,595 plus GST. Once installed, it’s yours—no monthly fees, and with proper maintenance, it can last
10 years or more. Over the life of the water tank, all parts and labour are guaranteed, which means no additional costs.
Now compare that to
renting the same tank for $50 plus GST per month. Over just 10 years, you’ll end up paying
more than three times the cost of ownership—and you still won’t own it. And this does not include increases in that monthly rate, which will always go up at least 3.5% per year!
Here’s a side-by-side breakdown of what that really looks like over a 10-year period:
As the chart shows, the upfront cost of owning your tank is higher in year one—but that’s where your payments end. By
year four, the total amount paid in rental fees
catches up to the cost of ownership. From that point forward, every monthly rental payment is money you didn’t need to spend. By
year ten, you’ll have paid more than
three times the cost of owning—and you still won’t own the equipment.
Choosing to own means keeping more money in your pocket in the long run.
