4) Renting vs. Buying a Water Heater
Renting a water heater can be more cost-effective in the short term, especially for those who prefer not to pay a large upfront cost. However, over a 16-year period, renting can cost significantly more than purchasing. For example, renting a unit at $30/month totals $5,760 over 16 years, whereas buying a unit may cost between $1,000 and $1,600 including installation.
While rental rates can vary based on the provider, unit type, and region, here’s a comparison between renting and buying a water heater:

5) How to Cancel a Reliance Water Heater Rental

Many Ontario homeowners consider cancelling their Reliance water heater rental for a few key reasons:
High Monthly Costs: Rental fees can add up over time, often exceeding the cost of purchasing a unit outright.
Long-Term Contracts: Some customers find themselves locked into long-term agreements with limited flexibility.
Lack of Ownership: With a rental, you’re paying indefinitely without ever owning the equipment.
Better Alternatives Available: Local companies like Ideal Heating & Air Conditioning offer more competitive rates, transparent service, and personalized customer support — often with no hidden fees or cancellation headaches.
If you’re looking to save money, gain more control over your home’s systems, or simply switch to a more customer-focused provider, cancelling your Reliance rental might be the right move. Here are the steps to follow if you wish to cancel your Reliance water heater rental:
Contact Reliance: Call 1-866-767-1702 or email whreturns@reliancecomfort.com to inform them of your intent to cancel.
Submit a Notice of Termination: Complete and submit the Notice of Termination form.
Provide an Agency Agreement (if applicable): If someone else is acting on your behalf, submit a valid Agency Agreement form.
Schedule a Pickup: Arrange for the removal of the water heater by contacting Reliance.
Return the Unit: Follow Reliance’s instructions for returning the water heater.
