Rebate & Grant Programs to Know About

Several federal and provincial programs have supported heat pump and energy efficiency upgrades in recent years, including the Canada Greener Homes initiative and utility-run programs through providers like Enbridge Gas. Program details, funding availability, and eligibility rules change often — sometimes programs pause, reopen, or get replaced with a new version — so rather than quoting specific dollar amounts here that may be outdated by the time you read this, we check current program status with every quote and tell you exactly what you qualify for today.

Financing Options for HVAC Upgrades

Beyond government rebates, financing options like home energy loans can spread the cost of a heat pump, furnace, or full HVAC upgrade over time rather than requiring the full amount upfront. Some utility providers and financial institutions offer dedicated energy-efficiency loan products with competitive rates for qualifying equipment. We can walk you through how financing compares to paying upfront once you know your installation cost and any rebates you qualify for.

How Rebates Apply Across Different Installations

Rebate eligibility often depends on the specific equipment installed and how it's used:

Heat pump installation — cold-climate air source heat pumps are frequently the best-supported equipment category for rebates. See our Heat Pump Installation page.
Furnace replacement paired with a heat pump — hybrid systems (furnace backup with a heat pump as primary) sometimes qualify differently than a heat pump alone. See our Furnace Installation & Repair page.
New construction HVAC — new builds have different rebate pathways than retrofits in some programs. See our New Construction HVAC page.
Heat pump water heaters — often eligible under separate energy-efficiency incentives from space heating rebates. See our Heat Pump Water Heater Installation page.

What to Expect When You Get a Quote

When Bridlewood Mechanical quotes a heat pump, furnace, or HVAC installation, we check what rebates and financing options currently apply to your specific project and home, and factor that into the numbers we give you — so the price you see reflects what you'll actually pay after any incentives, not just the sticker price before rebates. We also handle the rebate application documentation for programs that require contractor sign-off, which is most of them.
