The government is budgeting $2 billion over eight years with a target of retrofitting one million homes.
Households below the median income level can get up to $10,000 back on a heat pump purchase, while other homeowners can get $2,000 by switching to a heat pump.
Ottawa is in the process of winding down an existing program to subsidize purchases of heat pumps for homes heated with oil. As of March, the Oil to Heat Pump Affordability program helped to install more than 30,000 heat pumps across the country.
It’ll only be through dealers that are charging 4X what they should cost.
I did the Greener Homes Grant signup, got my quotes of approved equipment via approved dealers, then bought a heat pump via Home Depot and installed it myself for half of what it would have cost after the rebate.
Ridiculous scam.
I could not give a flying fuck. How about making life affordable for 80 percent of Canadians who can’t afford to buy a home?
just mandate only heat pumps can be sold. don’t give the option for AC only. they are literally the same condenser, just with a reversing
cablevalve and a few other minor changes.This should have been new building code 20 years ago.
But you’ll need the ones with the heater coils as well. Heat pumps only work down to a certain temperature.
