Enbridge Gas has launched the new Home Efficiency Rebate program, offering up to $5,000 in rebates for qualifying energy efficiency upgrades, including insulation upgrades. Launched on July 15, 2024, this program offers new rebates to eligible Ontario homeowners. Great Northern Insulation is dedicated to providing our customers with the latest information on rebates and cost-saving measures. Below is an overview of the Home Efficiency Rebate program, the rebate amounts, and how to qualify for rebates.
The Home Efficiency Rebate program offers rebates for various home efficiency upgrades. A key difference from previous programs is that a minimum of two retrofit upgrades are required to qualify for rebates. By upgrading or adding to your home insulation, you'll be improving your energy efficiency to reduce energy bills year-round and be more comfortable with consistent temperatures.
Below is an overview of the maximum insulation and air sealing rebate amounts. For full program details, see below or click here.
Although scopes of work can be combined, the total amount of rebates cannot exceed $5,000.
