Our old rental hot water heater burst, which left us with a bit of a flood and no hot water. We phoned around to the big box retailers to purchase and install a new hot water... tank. The install dates were anything from 7 to 14 days wait. I phone Hamco, and they sent a rep that afternoon to estimate the job. The install was completed next day in 2 hours. Excellent service and competitive price. Highly recommend.read more

Yesterday the Hamco team replaced my furnace and air conditioner, and did a wonderful job! Led by Shemar, they were courteous and efficient, and the work went smoothly.... Shemar added some unexpected touches - a handle for easily removing the filter, and a pouch for storing the manuals - very helpful for a forgetful and arthritic senior! He helped me set my thermostat and talked me through all decisions made. Thank you to a great team: Tony, Jonathan, and Shemar, and to Steve, who did the diagnostic work on the old furnace and a/c. Congratulations.read more

Well I waited a while to write a review til it got "REAL cold". I have to say the HEAT PUMP/AC PUMP we had installed in the summer did an outstanding job dealing with the... entire attic area with ease. It was so comfortable up there (when it was like 40+ degrees outside on those heat wave stretches we had here in old DUNDAS) we just wanted to be up there more often, also noticed the air was very comfortable and clear. Not too dry or humid, kinda just perfect.Our house was built in 1903, pretty typical Edwardian style, long, skinny and REALLY tall. Attic open from front to back of house.NOW that its COLD, prior to this HEAT PUMP install, our attic was an ice box. Tough to enjoy, NOT A PROBLEM NOW THOUGH !!! The heat in there is excellent!! It's just quietly keeping us at 24 degrees or so. The outside unit is so quiet I have to lean into it make sure we are running. Incredible really!! HYDRO bills do not show huge increases. I think we are quite similar in historical billing actually, be being more efficient in other areas. Ii.e. weekend laundry only (OFF PEAK), less fancy lights out back no one really looks at too much.The installer crew were in/out in about 7 hours. Great crew!!"ANDREW" was spectacular from start to finish with his knowledge, confidence and professionalism. I had 3 or 4 discussions with hvac folks, and clearly ANDREW knew the job better then the rest, so we signed with HAMCO!Thx folks, I've recommended you several times.Bread more

I would highly recommend Hamco Heating and Cooling Ltd. We had used their services to maintain our old furnace however when we woke up with no heat one morning, we were very... worried. The technician came without two hours. Unfortunately, it was time to replaced the very old furnace and Bill came right away to next day to give us a quote on a new furnace. Our installation took place the following day and our installers Justin and Nick did an amazing job and were very professional. Thank you to the whole team for caring and making sure we were not left out in the cold for very long.read more

We have been working with HAMCO in Hamilton, ON for over 15 years, to install a high efficiency boiler and a water heater. They have always provided top quality, reliable... service. Recently we installed a heat pump in our house (which is almost 100 years old and has hot water heating). We installed 4 heating/cooling units, one on each floor operated by one large condenser to reduce our carbon footprint and hopefully reduce our gas bill. The installation team of 4 eneregtic young technicians (Veronika, Najim, Josh and Nick) were a delight to work with. They were effciient, fast and completely dedicated. They made sure everything was done to a perfection despite cold weather outside. Thanks very much to them and we recommend them higly to anyone who is considering a heat pump installation.read more

I first contacted Hamco due to a CO leak in the house that the gas company said was caused by the furnace. Upon investigation, Nolan determined it was the Water Heater and... that I'd need to work with Reliance for that since I rented from them. He was very courteous and helpful in letting me know of the options available to me, and I was very happy dealing with him.After two separate Reliance techs did nothing and said it wasn't the heater, and 3 more instances of the CO alarm going off over a couple weeks, I contacted Hamco to look at buying a heater outright and having them install it. Laura was extremely helpful and kind, and I was able to get everything organized through her, including the Reliance cancellation.On installation day, the two installers were friendly, courteous, and put in effort to keep everything tidy as they went. They also took the old heater and returned it to Reliance on our behalf.It's been months now with zero problems or CO leaks. Of 4 different technicians that came to investigate the leak, only Nolan from Hamco got it right. I will happily use them again.read more

Water Heater Installation FAQs

If you’re wondering if it’s time to call for a new water heater, here are some of our most frequently asked questions about water heater installations, and what our experts have to say in return!

There are a few telltale signs that your current water heater is on its way out and it’s time for a new model. These signs include: 

  • The age of your water heater (if your system is over 15 years old, it may be time to replace it) 
  • Your water heater isn’t producing as much hot water or any at all.
  • You notice water pooling around your water heater
  • You’ve noticed an increase in energy consumption and bills 
  • You’re paying for more repairs than you once had to 

The size of the tank you need depends entirely on the size of your home, the size of your family, and your water consumption habits. The experts at HAMCO are happy to help you make the decision on which size tank is best for your household. 

While a tankless water heater costs more upfront, many large families and households prefer to have it to avoid running out of hot water and having to wait for more to accumulate. Similar to choosing the right size tank, the experts at HAMCO are happy to take your needs and habits into consideration and help you find the right choice for your home. 

The amount of time that a water heater installation takes is dependent on the system. Traditional water heater installations take approximately 3 hours to complete. There are some water heater installations that can take 8 hours due to the complexity of the install, such as converting from a standard water heater to a tankless system.

For the most part, we recommend purchasing your water heater outright or at least choosing to finance it with monthly payments before committing to rentals. However, every family, their needs, and their budgets are different, and the experts at HAMCO are happy to take your needs into consideration when advising you on whether to purchase or rent your new system.

Benefits of a Tankless Water Heater 

If you’re in the market for a new water heater and you’re trying to decide between a traditional or a tankless unit, there are a few things you should consider that may make the initial higher cost of a tankless water heater worth it. These benefits include: 

  • Consistent hot water (especially valuable for large families) 
  • Smaller system (takes up less space)
  • Higher efficiency
  • Lower utility costs 

Boiler Vs Water Heater: What’s the Difference?

When in the market for a new water heater, you may come across a boiler and wonder what separates the two systems. While yes, they both heat water, they serve very different purposes in the home. Here’s what you should know.

Water Heater

Traditional water heaters, whether conventional or power vented, electric or gas, heat cold water with a heating element. As the water warms up it rises to the top of the tank, which will then flow to a location when it is demanded, such as turning on the hot water for your shower, etc. If the hot water is not being used it remains in the tank where it is continuously heated.

Tankless Water Heater

Tankless water heaters take cold water and heat it instantaneously through a heat exchanger in the system. The same as a traditional water heater, when the hot water is demanded it flows to that location i.e. turning on your hot water faucet in the kitchen sink.

Boiler

While it’s true that boilers heat water to be distributed through the home, they don’t heat water for the homeowner’s physical use. Instead, water is heated by the boiler and then it is distributed through pipes to radiators to heat the home. This is known as a hydronic heating system.

Combi Boiler

A combination boiler, otherwise known as a “combi”, is a boiler-style system that heats both your domestic hot water and your radiators. This type of system is a popular choice for people with a traditional boiler and a traditional water heater because you can replace both units with one efficient system.
