Ground source heat pump rebate

A ground source heat pump can save you up to 65% on your home’s heating and cooling costs, and provide you with heat in the winter and cooling in the summer. 

Solar energy stored in the ground is captured in a solution circulating through underground pipes and carried back to a heat pump installed inside your home.

The heat pump distributes heat indoors during cold weather, displacing conventional heating systems and collects it during hot weather, acting as an air conditioner.

Rebate & loan details

Rebate is calculated at $0.05 per kWh in savings, with an average rebate on a 4000 sq. ft. home being approximately $900. You can also apply for a loan of up to $5000 OAC financed over 10 years at 4.9%.

Apply for the rebate and loan through the Home Improvement Program.

GSHP incentive requirements

  • The GSHP will be installed in a residential dwelling.

Make the switch to CFLs
They use 75% less energy than incandescent bulbs, and last up to ten times longer.  CFLs come in variety of sizes and illumination levels, and can be used in all areas of your home. Remember, a 20 watt CFL bulb gives off the same amount of light as a 100 watt incandescent bulb.
