Disposing of or removing a Reliance water heater depends on whether the unit is an outright purchase or part of a regional rental agreement common in certain markets like Ontario. If the water heater is rented, you must officially contact the provider to schedule authorized removal and contract termination to avoid ongoing billing penalties. For owned units, you must first shut off the cold water supply valve and power source, completely drain the tank using a garden hose connected to the bottom drain valve, disconnect gas or electrical lines, and coordinate with local scrap metal recyclers or municipal waste services for proper disposal.
