Common questions
What rebates are there for a heat pump in Ontario?
Home Renovation Savings pays $500 per ton up to $2,000 in a gas-heated home, and $1,250 per ton up to $7,500 in a home heated with electricity, oil, propane or wood. The program runs to March 31, 2027 unless funding runs out first.
Is there a rebate for replacing a gas furnace?
No. A straight swap of a gas furnace or central AC gets no rebate under Home Renovation Savings. A cold-climate heat pump or a hybrid system can.
Is there a rebate for a home EV charger in Ontario?
As of November 2026, no provincial or federal rebate covers a home charger. Toronto's Home Energy Loan Program can finance one.
Do GTA cities pay for backwater valves?
Many do, through the city or region: Toronto, Peel, Halton, Vaughan, Markham and Richmond Hill all have programs. Amounts and rules differ, and most need a permit before work starts.
