What Affects Your A.O. Smith Price
Existing system & swap complexity
A straight like-for-like swap costs less than re-piping or converting from a tank or furnace system.
Venting changes
New condensing units need PVC/poly venting and a condensate drain — adding venting in a finished space raises labour.
Gas line & meter capacity
Higher-BTU models may need a larger gas line or meter upgrade from FortisBC.
Output & model tier
Larger-output and premium series cost more than entry models — sizing to your real heat loss avoids overpaying.
Removal & disposal
Removing and disposing of an old boiler (especially heavy cast-iron) adds labour.
Controls & zoning
Outdoor reset, smart thermostats, and added zones increase parts and commissioning time.
Permits
Gas and, where required, plumbing permits are included in a professional, code-compliant install.
Water treatment
In hard-water areas (Surrey, Langley) a system flush or treatment protects the heat exchanger and is cheap insurance.
Rebates in BC
High-efficiency condensing A.O. Smith models (95%+ AFUE) typically qualify for FortisBC and CleanBC rebates when installed by a licensed contractor. Programs and amounts change periodically — we identify the current rebates you qualify for and handle the paperwork.
