FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. Do rental properties or second properties qualify?
-
Yes, rental and secondary properties qualify, as long as the property has an active gas account and uses natural gas as the primary heat source.
​
2. Do single head heat pumps qualify?
-
Yes, single head heat pumps do qualify, as long as they are listed on the Natural Resources Canada eligibility list.
​
3. If two heat pumps are installed, do I get a rebate for each one?
-
If two heat pumps are installed, the rebate is based off of the combined rated tonnage of both systems. For example, if two 3-ton units are installed, the rebate is based off of the combined size being 6 tons. Therefore, a rebate of $2,000 would apply assuming both systems are cold climate rated and listed on the Natural Resource Canada eligibility list.
​​
4. If I insulate my basement walls and basement header does that count as 1 or 2 measures towards the 2 measure minimum the program requires?
-
If a customer upgrades only their basement walls it counts as 1 measure. If a customer upgrades only their basement header it counts as 1 measure. However, if a customer upgrades both their basement wall and header, the two combined only count as 1 measure (not 2 measures).
​5. If I upgrade both my windows and my doors, does that count as 1 or 2 measures towards the 2-measure minimum program requirement?
-
Upgrading both windows and doors counts as only one (1) eligible measure towards the 2-measure minimum program requirement.
-
For clarity a minimum of 3 windows, 1 door, 1 sliding door or 1 skylight must be replaced with ENERGY STAR certified models to qualify as one (1) eligible measure. Rebates are based on the number of rough openings replaced, not the number of individual windows or doors installed.
​
6. If a customer participated in the previous HER or HER+ program, do they still qualify for a rebate through this new program?
-
Yes, a new set of audits would be required, and the customer would be eligible to receive up to $5,000 inclusive of up to $600 towards there audit cost. However, any upgrades where a rebate was previously received would not qualify.
​
7. How long will this new HER program run for?
-
Until December 31, 2025 or once funding runs out. Whichever comes first.
-
Update: This program ended on January 27th 2025, and has since been replaced with the new Home Renovation Savings program.
