Get up to $50,000 in incentives for heat and energy recovery

Keep heat in while moving stale air out with heat-recovery ventilators (HRV) and energy-recovery ventilators (ERV). ERVs and HRVs transfer heat and moisture between the building’s exhaust air and the outside supply air. During the heating season, this raises the temperature of the outside air supply through heat transfer within the heat exchanger. Through this process, you’ll save energy by decreasing the load on the building’s heating system.

To help you take advantage of this energy-saving technology, Enbridge Gas offers financial incentives. In-suite incentives for affordable housing qualify under the Affordable Housing Multi-Residential program.

How the program works

Work with an Energy Solutions Advisor to determine whether your building is eligible for the ERV/HRV fixed incentives offer.

Once eligibility is confirmed, make arrangements to purchase and install your ERV or HRV.

Complete the Fixed Incentive Application Form. Please ensure you use the same description for the technology as shown in the incentive list below. 

Submit the completed application form with proof of purchase and installation to energyservices@enbridge.com. You’ll receive your incentive by mail.
