Qualify for up to $10,000
renovation grants
To qualify for grants
you need to complete two home energy assessments.
The first energy assessment must be completed before you replace or
install anything - if you want
that upgrade work to be eligible for
Grants + Rebates.
The second energy assessment must be completed
after all upgrade and renovation
work is finished and within 18 months
of the date of your first assessment.
- Call for an energy assessment —
1-877-732-9888
to speak with an agent
- Ontario — $300 for first energy assessment
(you will receive a $150 rebate on the cost of your first assessment
from the Ontario government’s Home Energy Audit program).
- British Columbia — $150 for first assessment
(you will receive a $150 rebate on the cost of your first energy assessment
from the LiveSmart BC program once you have made energy-efficiency upgrades
to your home, and you have a second energy assessment completed).
- First assessment — An
ecoENERGY assessment takes
approximately 2 hours to complete.
Your certified ecoENERGY advisor will be happy to
answer any questions pertaining
to energy in your home. The advisor will need access
to the entire house including
attic, crawl space, heating and cooling equipment,
or any other hard to reach areas.
- Grant report — An ecoENERGY report
will be mailed to you within
approximately 2 weeks
containing recommendations on how to improve the
energy efficiency of your home.
This is a comprehensive report including federal
Government
Grant amounts for each
recommended change.
- Provincial rebates — Remember, the Governments of
Ontario
and
British Columbia provide rebates in addition to the
federal ecoENERGY grants available from the Government of Canada.
- Upgrade your home — After reading your ecoENERGY report
you may choose to do all,
some, or none of the recommendations. You can complete the upgrade work
yourself or hire a contractor.
You should document your renovations with receipts, photos and product
literature to be sure you get full credit for all improvements.
- Second assessment — Please call
1-877-732-9888 to schedule
your second assessment when you have completed
all of your planned upgrades. The cost of a
second ecoENERGY assessment is $150.
- Grant cheques — You can expect
to receive your federal ecoENERGY
grant cheque within 90 days of your second energy assessment.
Your provincial rebate cheque
will follow.
- 18 months — To qualify for ecoENERGY grants, you must
finish your upgrade work
and complete your second assessment within 18 months of
the date of your first assessment. You can apply
for ecoENERGY grants only once per house.
- Please note — Additional fees are
applicable for oversize homes (>3500 sq. ft.).
Travel fees may apply for outlying locations.
