Bradford White is the brand many plumbers install in their own homes. We supply, install and repair their tank, tankless and heat-pump water heaters—handling gas, electric and power-vented models, and recommending the right size for your household.

Bradford White manufactures its tanks entirely in North America and builds them to a higher standard than many big-box imports. The Vitraglas enamel lining, combined with a magnesium anode rod, is particularly well matched to the moderately hard, chloramine-treated municipal water supplied by Metro Vancouver Regional District, which can be corrosive on cheaper glass linings over time. The Hydrojet total performance system also reduces sediment buildup from cold BC groundwater feed, maintaining efficiency across the unit's service life.
For the typical Metro Vancouver housing mix — concrete condos with limited mechanical room clearance, 1970s ranchers with open-combustion venting, and newer townhomes with power-vent requirements — Bradford White offers a model for each situation. The Atmospheric Vent (AW and RG series) suits older homes with existing B-vent chimneys, while the Power Vent (MI series) suits tight mechanical rooms that vent horizontally through PVC. The Defender Safety System prevents accidental ignition of flammable vapours, a meaningful feature in attached garages common in Surrey and Burnaby.
Bradford White water heaters are reliable, but they develop predictable failure patterns over their service life. CANRO technicians carry the most common Bradford White replacement parts on their service vehicles, so many repairs are completed in a single visit. If your unit is more than ten years old and showing any of the symptoms below, our team will give you an honest repair-versus-replace assessment, factoring in current rebate availability — see our rebates page for current CleanBC and FortisBC incentives on qualifying replacements.
Call us at (604) 359-1081 or reach us through our contact page for same-day and after-hours response. Our Red Seal technicians diagnose Bradford White water heater problems accurately on the first visit, backed by our Technical Safety BC gas licence LGA0043870 and over 25 years serving Metro Vancouver since 1999.
Planning a heat-pump upgrade? Check current BC Hydro, Better Homes BC and utility program requirements before installation. The Canada Greener Homes Grant and Loan are closed to new applications. Eligibility and permitted combinations depend on the program; confirm approval before relying on funding.
