A heat pump rebate (Canada Greener Homes Grants) is a financial incentive provided by the government of Canada in partnership with Enbridge Gas to homeowners who purchase and install a heat pump under the Home Efficiency Rebate Plus (HER+) program. The rebate aims to encourage homeowners to switch to more energy-efficient heating and cooling systems, reducing energy consumption and lowering carbon emissions.
The availability and amount of the rebate vary depending on location and program requirements. In Ontario, rebates cover a portion of the cost of a heat pump installation, including equipment, labor. The grant also covers the cost of a home energy assessment, up to $600.
To be eligible for a heat pump rebate, homeowners need to meet certain requirements such as installing a heat pump that meets certain energy efficiency standards and also require a home energy audit or inspection to determine the appropriate size and type of heat pump for the home.
