Why APC Service Canada

Why B2B buyers choose us over buying direct or from big-box

Canadian service & on-site install

Quote the UPS and the installation in one pass. Rack & stack, commissioning, battery break-in, and monitoring card configuration — we handle it on-site, anywhere in Canada.

Right battery, first time

We match the correct APC RBC to your exact model, serial, and revision. No wrong cartridges, no second shipments, no returns. If your unit is an older SU or SURT, we’ll tell you.

Bulk and multi-site quoting

Fleet refreshes, multi-branch rollouts, federal RFQs: send us the list, we quote it as one. Consolidated shipping, staggered delivery, or site-by-site — whatever fits your operations plan.

Independent — we work for you

We’re not an OEM reseller with a quota. We’ll quote the right model for your load — and sometimes that means recommending a smaller or different unit than what you came looking for.

Federal & public-sector ready

Set up for government purchase orders, standing offers, and procurement processes. Bilingual documentation, cost-centre invoicing, and NET terms for qualified accounts.

Lifecycle support after the sale

The UPS you buy today will need batteries in 3–5 years. We’re the ones who come back to do it — same account, same technicians, same response windows.

FAQ

Smart-UPS quoting & buying questions

Do you show prices anywhere, or is it quote-only?
Quote-only. Canadian B2B UPS pricing shifts with supplier promos, volume tiers, and whether installation is bundled. A same-day quote is typically closer to real net cost than any public MSRP list — and we build the matching battery and install into the same line item.
How fast do you respond to a Smart-UPS quote request?
Within one business day for standard SMT/SMC/SMX/SRT models. Large-volume quotes or non-stock SKUs may take two business days. Urgent requirements: call 1 (438) 881-3363 and we’ll flag it.
Can you quote the UPS, the battery, and the installation as one line item?
Yes — that’s the standard way we quote. Include UPS, batteries, installation, and service in your email and you’ll get a single quote with each line broken out so your procurement team can split cost centres if needed.
I’m not sure which Smart-UPS I need — can you help me size it?
Yes. Send your equipment list or total load (watts or amps) plus the runtime you need, and we’ll recommend the right model. Oversized UPS wastes capital; undersized UPS either trips or kills batteries prematurely. We’ll size it correctly.
Do you replace batteries on Smart-UPS units you didn’t sell?
Absolutely. The APC RBC cartridge catalogue covers every Smart-UPS ever made. Send the model and serial number and we’ll confirm the right RBC — whether your unit came from us, a reseller, or an original OEM purchase ten years ago.
Which Smart-UPS series should I pick for a server room?
For most Canadian server rooms under 3000 VA, the SMT series is the standard — line-interactive, pure sine, network card slot, hot-swap batteries. Above 5000 VA or for sensitive loads (medical imaging, broadcast, precision manufacturing), move to the SRT series for true online double-conversion.
Are Smart-UPS Ultra lithium-ion units worth the upgrade?
For rack-space-constrained sites and deployments where you’re not coming back for 8–10 years, yes. Ultra gives you 1U footprint, ~3× battery life, and lower TCO than VRLA over the same time horizon. For low-budget or short-cycle deployments, SMT/SRT with standard VRLA is still the cost-effective choice.
