A heat pump water heater — also called a hybrid water heater — is the most efficient, most rebate-friendly way to heat water in a BC home. CANRO installs them right. CANRO Heating & Cooling has installed and serviced residential water heaters across Greater Vancouver since 1999. Call (604) 359-1081 or request a free quote.
A heat pump water heater (the same thing as a hybrid water heater) heats your water by moving heat from the surrounding air, using about a third of the energy of a standard electric tank. That efficiency unlocks the largest FortisBC/CleanBC water-heater rebates. CANRO installs heat pump water heaters — Rheem ProTerra, AO Smith, Bradford White and more — for Greater Vancouver homeowners, including the popular 40-gallon size.

📞 (604) 359-1081Book boiler serviceA heat pump water heater isn’t a like-for-like tank swap. It needs a dedicated 240V electric circuit, a condensate drain, and enough surrounding air (a utility room, garage or basement, or simple ducting) to draw heat from. CANRO’s licensed technicians and electricians handle the electrical, condensate and water connections to code, then commission and register the unit for your rebate.
We install the leading heat pump (hybrid) water heaters — including the Rheem ProTerra — in sizes from 40 gallon (smaller homes, condos) up to 80 gallon (larger families). We size it to your real demand so it never runs short.
CANRO is a local, licensed Greater Vancouver water-heater contractor since 1999. We give you a free, upfront written estimate, install cleanly, and handle the rebate. Compare options first: electric tank vs heat pump and vs gas tankless.
Please don’t DIY this. A heat pump (hybrid) water heater combines a 240V electrical supply, a sealed refrigerant circuit and pressurised hot water. Don’t open the unit, touch the wiring or breaker, handle refrigerant, or alter the tank connections. Safe homeowner steps are simple: keep the air intake and filter area clear, make sure the condensate drain isn’t blocked, and check the breaker is on. Anything more — including the electrical hookup — needs a licensed technician. Call (604) 359-1081.
Heat pump (hybrid) water heaters — including the Rheem ProTerra — qualify for the largest residential water-heater rebates in BC, because they use roughly a third of the energy of a standard electric tank. Depending on your home and equipment, that can include FortisBC and CleanBC Better Homes incentives, and rebates often stack with other upgrades. CANRO confirms exactly what you qualify for and files the paperwork. See heat pump water heater rebates in BC →
A heat pump water heater is part appliance, part HVAC system: it needs a dedicated 240V circuit, a sealed refrigerant system, a condensate drain, enough surrounding air (or ducting) to pull heat from, and correct placement for our climate. A licensed CANRO technician sizes it, handles the electrical and condensate to code, commissions it for the rebate, and makes sure it actually performs in your space — not just bolts it in. DIY or unlicensed work risks safety, your warranty, and your rebate eligibility.
