They are si efficient. I called in the morning and the Jason and Simon, the technicians were here in the afternoon. My case is a bit different which sent Simon back to the office to gather some more product. I really appreciate their work. Jason is so knowledgeable and I am truly grateful for his advice. They removed the old water tank which is dirty and rusted. It was an excellent experience. I definitely will use their service again.

The pre-installation survey was thorough. Customer's requirement was fully understood. The technicians showed up on time and fully equipped with tools and parts. This installation involved an additional electrical water boiler which will act as a backup water boiler in case of either the existing water boilers, one for the basement or the second boiler for the main floor, fails. The connection for the basement hot water system was complete on time. I plan to have the same technicians back in the future to connect the backup hot water boiler to the main floor hot water system. This installation required an electrician to run an electrical cable from the main circuit breaker to the boiler. The company does not provide an electrician to do the wiring installation. It is not a draw back of the good service. It is a business decision. It would be nicer if I did not have to deal with two contractors. Peter , Vancouver.

After a month I am very satisfied with the hot water tank they put in. They did it professionally and at a good price. Our families have been using this other plumber for a long time, he is very good but charge more. I will switch to Wah Fai for now and recommend to other family members too.

Did you know?

Hot Water Heaters

A hot water heater’s lifespan depends on the type of water heater, the energy source, water type, and how well the unit is maintained. How does yours compare to the 95% high efficiency ones?

Boilers

A hydronic boiler system uses water or steam, heated by a boiler to heat your home. Old boiler’s efficiency range from 50% to 80%. You can reduce waste by upgrading to a new 95% efficiency unit.

Furnaces

A forced air furnace is connected by a system of ducts to every room of the house to deliver warm air. Energy Star (A government agency) recommends upgrading your furnace every 20 years.

Plumbing

All water systems have pipes and parts that can break down. We advise doing regular maintenance checks to avoid issues such as damaging leaks which can impact structural integrity over time.
