Rebate Summary
Rebates
Save on the cost of the new equipment and installation. In addition, save up to $3,000 on the cost of removal and disposal of your old electric baseboards and the installation of a new central heating system.
To read the chart:
- Find the heat type you wish to convert to in the first column and follow the row across.
-
The minimum efficiency levels accepted for space heating and hot water are outlined in columns two and three.
-
Rebates are outlined in the next four columns.
a) To calculate your equipment rebate:
i) Add up the flat rebates (A+B) that apply to the project
ii) Add up the total cost of your equipment and installation, including HST and multiply it by the maximum rebate % in column six
iii) The lower amount of those two numbers will be your standard equipment & installation rebate
b) If you install a new central heating system and remove all electric heating, you will also be rebated for that cost, up to a maximum of $3,000 -
Your total rebates will be the standard equipment & installation rebate plus the additional installation rebate.
