Expand the tabs below to read the eligibility requirements and terms and conditions.

Eligibility requirements

Enbridge Gas Inc. (“Enbridge”) is delivering the Home Efficiency Rebate program (the “Program”) to any eligible Ontario resident (each, a “Participant”) who primarily space- heats the Participant’s home with Enbridge-supplied natural gas at the time of the pre- retrofit EnerGuide home energy evaluation and/or the post-retrofit EnerGuide home energy evaluation (respectively, “Pre-Audit” and “Post-Audit”, and collectively, the “Audits”), and satisfies all other Program eligibility requirements. Audits must be completed by a registered energy advisor (“REA”) who is licensed by Natural Resources Canada (“NRCan”) and is an employee or a subcontractor of an Enbridge-approved service organization, which will be published on the Program website from time to time (each, an “Authorized Service Organization”). Enbridge strongly recommends that the same REA conducts both Audits for a given Participant. The Program will commence on July 15, 2024 (the “Program Start Date”).
Under the Program, the Participant may be eligible (subject to satisfying all Program requirements) to receive a financial rebate of up to $5,000 (“Rebate”) after implementing certain eligible energy efficiency measures (“Qualified Measures”). To be eligible for a Rebate, a Participant must:
1. complete a Pre-Audit*;
2. return to the applicable REA or Authorized Service Organization, or to Enbridge, the duly signed Home Efficiency Rebate Terms and Conditions;
3. install at least two (2) Qualified Measures; and
4. complete a Post-Audit within 120 days of the Participant’s Pre-Audit or by December 31, 2025, whichever comes first, provided that Post-Audits for all Participants must be scheduled and entered into Enbridge’s tracking system by no later than November 30, 2025. For greater certainty, Enbridge reserves the right to disqualify any Participant from participating in the
5. Program or receiving any Rebate, and to permanently close the Program application / file of any Participant who does not (i) complete a Post-Audit by the earlier of 120 days following the completion of such Participant’s Pre-Audit and December 31, 2025, and (ii) schedule and enter into Enbridge’s tracking system such Participant’s Post-Audit by November 30, 2025.
*Any prospective Participant who completed a Pre-Audit prior to the Program Start Date (a “Legacy Pre-Audit”) may be eligible to participate in, and receive a Rebate under, the Program without the need to complete a new Pre-Audit, provided that such prospective Participant satisfies all the following requirements (which, for certainty, are in addition to all other Program requirements):
1. The Legacy Pre-Audit must have been completed on or after February 6, 2024 by an NRCan-licensed REA and submitted to NRCan. For greater certainty, (i) Enbridge will not accept any Legacy Pre-Audits that were completed prior to February 6, 2024 or not submitted to NRCan; and (ii) the REA that completed such Legacy Pre-Audit may, but does not need to, be employed by or subcontracted to an Authorized Service Organization for the purposes of satisfying this requirement.
2. If the REA that completed the Legacy Pre-Audit is not employed by or subcontracted to an Authorized Service Organization, then the prospective Participant must submit the Pre-Audit invoice to the applicable Authorized Service Organization who will be completing the Post-Audit for such prospective Participant.
3. The prospective Participant must not have completed a Post-Audit prior to the Program Start Date. For greater certainty, for the purposes of determining eligibility to receive a Rebate under the Program, Enbridge will accept only Post-Audits completed by an Authorized Service Organization on or after the Program Start Date.
4. The prospective Participant must not have implemented any Qualified Measures prior to documenting and submitting to the applicable Authorized Service Organization photographs of the existing conditions and equipment present at the Participant’s home prior to installation of any Qualified Measures. For greater certainty, if the REA that completed the Legacy Pre-Audit is not employed by or subcontracted to an Authorized Service Organization, then the prospective Participant must submit the photographs contemplated by this Section 3(d) to the Authorized Service Organization who will be completing the Post-Audit for such prospective Participant.
5. Notwithstanding Section 2(d) above, any prospective Participant who completed a Legacy Pre-Audit on or after February 6, 2024 must complete a Post-Audit by no later than 120 days following the Program Start Date, or November 12, 2024.
Without limiting any of the foregoing requirements, any Qualified Measures completed prior to the Pre-Audit will not be eligible to receive a Rebate under the Program without the prior written consent of Enbridge.
Without limiting any other provision herein, each Participant is responsible for, among other things:
1. ensuring that such Participant satisfies all Program eligibility requirements;
2. choosing an REA that is employed by or subcontracted to an Authorized Service Organization;
3. for purposes of completing the Post-Audit, submitting to the applicable REA or Authorized Service Organization, or to Enbridge (as applicable) copies of each of the following documents: (i) invoice(s) for Audits and Qualified Measures; and (ii) property tax bill(s);
4. retaining copies of each of the documents specified in Section 5(d) above;
5. completing a Program application; and
6. for meeting all Program deadlines.
If a Participant has previously participated in and received (or expects to receive) a rebate or other incentive through another Enbridge program including, but not limited to, the Home Efficiency Rebate Plus (HER+) program, such Participant may participate in this Program, provided that such Participant will be ineligible to receive a Rebate in respect of any Qualified Measures for which the Participant previously received (or expects to receive) a rebate or other incentive under such other Enbridge program(s) (i.e. double-dipping is not permitted). For example, if a Participant installed replacement windows at the Participant’s home and received a rebate under the HER+ program in respect of the installation of such replacement windows, then the Participant will not be eligible to also receive a Rebate under the Program for such replacement windows.
Once a Participant has participated in and received a Rebate through the Program, the Participant’s Program file will be closed, and Enbridge shall have no further obligations to such Participant under the Program. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Participant may re-apply to participate in the Program again, provided that:
1. the Participant must satisfy all Program requirements again, including, but not limited to, those requirements listed in Sections 2 and 5 herein. For greater certainty, in addition to all other Program requirements, for subsequent participation in the Program, the Participant would need to complete a new Pre-Audit and new Post-Audit in order to be eligible to receive a subsequent Rebate under the Program;
2. the sum of the initial Rebate received by the Participant and any subsequent Rebate(s) received shall not exceed $5,000. For example, if the Participant received an initial Rebate of $4,000 in respect of the Participant’s previous participation in the Program, the maximum amount of any subsequent Rebate(s) the Participant could receive during subsequent participation in the Program shall not exceed $1,000;
3. the Participant will not be reimbursed for the cost of performing any Audits for the purposes of subsequent participation in the Program. For greater certainty, the Participant may only receive the $600 reimbursement for the Audits the first time the Participant successfully completes the Program; and
4. the Participant shall not receive any Rebate in respect of any Qualified Measures for which the Participant previously received a Rebate under the Program.
Rebates may be awarded to Participants starting January 1, 2025 until such time as Program funding has been allocated, modified, terminated or exhausted, and no Rebate can be provided, and no payment can be made, to any Participant under the Program if Program funding is allocated, modified, terminated or exhausted (as determined by Enbridge in its sole discretion).

Eligibility rules

The Program is available for the following types of homes

Single detached and semi-detached homes
Row housing
Townhomes
Mobile homes on a permanent foundation.

The following types of homes are not eligible under the Program:

Homes less than 6 months old.
Multi-unit residential buildings (MURB) with more than 3 storeys or building area larger than 600 m², including retirement homes.
Low-rise MURB’s (3 storeys or less with a building area of 600 m² or less).

Qualified Measures:

Windows, Doors, Skylights and Sliding Doors

Eligibility criteria for a Rebate:

$50 per rough opening for each window, door, skylight or sliding door replaced with an ENERGY STAR certified model.
NOTE: A minimum of 3 windows or 1 door or 1 skylight or 1 sliding door are required to be upgraded to count as one Qualified Measure. For clarity, replacing only one or two windows with an ENERGY STAR certified model will not count as a Qualified Measure.
Keep the ENERGY STAR labels on your windows and doors until after your Post-Audit.

Important:

A complete new window or door and frame replacement can be inserted into the existing frame of an old window or door, but replacements of only the glass, sash or door without a frame are not eligible.

A rough opening is defined as a structurally stable opening in an outside wall. The opening may be surrounded by framing members (e.g., studs, lintels) or by solid material (e.g., concrete, solid wood logs). A rough opening serves the purpose of installing one or more windows or doors. The Rebate is offered per rough opening, as opposed to per number of windows or doors installed within the opening. For example, a bay window with three window units installed into one rough opening is eligible for only one Rebate.

Windows, Doors, Skylights and Sliding Doors¹:

Ground Source Heat Pumps

Two rebates are available for ground source heat pump systems:
1. the installation of a full system or,
2. the replacement of the heat pump unit with a more efficient model

Installation:
- Your ground source heat pump unit must be installed by a licensed and trained professional. Before accepting the quote from a licensed professional, it is highly recommended that you obtain proof of their licence to install equipment in Ontario.
Attestation:
- It is highly recommended that you ask the licensed and trained professional to sign an attestation form confirming that the installation has been completed according to the CSA standard—ANSI/CSA/IGSHPA C448 SERIES (latest version), “Design and installation of ground source heat pump systems for commercial and residential buildings”. Download the attestation form.
Eligible product list:
- Your new ground source heat pump must be on NRCan’s list of eligible products. Direct expansion (DX), water-to-water, and brine-to-water systems are not eligible.
  - NOTE: the rebate listed on NRCan’s list of eligible products is only the Canada Greener Homes Grant rebate amount, not the Rebate for the Program
Performance Criteria:
- The full specification list can be found here

Ground source heat pumps:

Option	Rebate amount
Install a ground source heat pump—full system that meets Canada’s Energy Efficiency Regulations: Energy Efficiency Regulations – technical specifications	$3,000
Replace a ground source heat pump—heat pump unit only with one that meets Canada’s Energy Efficiency Regulations: Energy Efficiency Regulations – technical specifications	$1,500

Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHP) and Cold Climate Air Source Heat Pumps (ccASHP)

Heat pumps for which a Rebate is provided can be a first-time installation of a heat pump system or a replacement of an existing heat pump system with a more efficient model. A heat pump system is composed of an outdoor coil, indoor coil, and fan component. In case of hybrid systems, the fan component is part of a gas furnace. To be eligible for a Rebate, except for cases in which the indoor and outdoor coils are paired with an existing gas furnace (heat pump is using the furnace blower to distribute the heat throughout the house), a brand-new heat pump system must be installed that is part of an eligible combination unit. The heat pump system can work as a standalone system or in conjunction with an existing backup heating system (note that the backup system is not eligible for the Rebate; only the heat pump system would receive the Rebate). In case of mini or multisplit units, both indoor and outdoor units must be replaced/installed (the replacement of only one component, or addition of a new indoor unit is not eligible for a Rebate under the Program).

Eligibility criteria for a Rebate:

Installation:
- Your air source heat pump or cold climate air source heat pump must be installed by a licensed and trained professional. Before accepting the quote from a licensed professional, it is highly recommended that you obtain proof of their license to install equipment in Ontario.
- Rental heat pumps are eligible for a Rebate.
Attestation:
- It is highly recommended that you ask the licensed and trained professional to sign an attestation form confirming that the installation has been completed according to the CSA standard. Download the attestation form.
- The mechanical system contractor is responsible for specifying (including load calculations, sizing and selection) and installing the new heat pump system to meet this requirement***.
  
  ***Note: The heat pump system is not typically sized to deliver 100% of the peak heating load as this could lead to an oversized system that frequently cycles on/off. Mechanical system contractors should design a system that optimizes the energy savings for a house and increases the comfort of occupants. Based on the house-as-a-system, the design should account for the anticipated heat requirements based on other planned energy efficiency upgrades to the building envelope (such as the installation of insulation, the replacement of windows or air sealing) in order to avoid oversizing the unit. While heat pump systems can also provide air conditioning in the summer, air conditioning considerations are secondary in the sizing of system design. It is recommended that the toolkit for air source heat pump sizing and selection be used by the mechanical system contractor to determine the optimal sizing needs. A new heat pump system can be integrated into an existing heat pump system. However, only the new system is eligible for a Rebate, provided that it meets all eligibility requirements.
Eligible product lists:
- Your new heat pump must be on NRCan’s list of eligible products. All components of a heat pump system (indoor and outdoor units, and furnace or air handling unit) must be compatible and listed together as an eligible product. Use the AHRI number and make and model of the indoor and outdoor units provided by the mechanical system contractor to confirm that your heat pump is included on the list.
  - NOTE: the rebate listed on NRCan’s list of eligible products is only the Canada Greener Homes Grant rebate amount, not the Rebate for the Program

Ground Source Heat Pumps

Two rebates are available for ground source heat pump systems:
1. the installation of a full system or,
2. the replacement of the heat pump unit with a more efficient model

Installation:
- Your ground source heat pump unit must be installed by a licensed and trained professional. Before accepting the quote from a licensed professional, it is highly recommended that you obtain proof of their licence to install equipment in Ontario.
Attestation:
- It is highly recommended that you ask the licensed and trained professional to sign an attestation form confirming that the installation has been completed according to the CSA standard—ANSI/CSA/IGSHPA C448 SERIES (latest version), “Design and installation of ground source heat pump systems for commercial and residential buildings”. Download the attestation form.

Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHP) and Cold Climate Air Source Heat Pumps (ccASHP)

Learn more about heat pumps

Eligibility criteria for a Rebate:

Installation:
- Your air source heat pump or cold climate air source heat pump must be installed by a licensed and trained professional. Before accepting the quote from a licensed professional, it is highly recommended that you obtain proof of their license to install equipment in Ontario.
- Rental heat pumps are eligible for a Rebate.
Attestation:
- It is highly recommended that you ask the licensed and trained professional to sign an attestation form confirming that the installation has been completed according to the CSA standard. Download the attestation form.
- The mechanical system contractor is responsible for specifying (including load calculations, sizing and selection) and installing the new heat pump system to meet this requirement***.
  
  ***Note: The heat pump system is not typically sized to deliver 100% of the peak heating load as this could lead to an oversized system that frequently cycles on/off. Mechanical system contractors should design a system that optimizes the energy savings for a house and increases the comfort of occupants. Based on the house-as-a-system, the design should account for the anticipated heat requirements based on other planned energy efficiency upgrades to the building envelope (such as the installation of insulation, the replacement of windows or air sealing) in order to avoid oversizing the unit. While heat pump systems can also provide air conditioning in the summer, air conditioning considerations are secondary in the sizing of system design. It is recommended that the toolkit for air source heat pump sizing and selection be used by the mechanical system contractor to determine the optimal sizing needs. A new heat pump system can be integrated into an existing heat pump system. However, only the new system is eligible for a Rebate, provided that it meets all eligibility requirements.
Eligible product lists:
- Your new heat pump must be on NRCan’s list of eligible products. All components of a heat pump system (indoor and outdoor units, and furnace or air handling unit) must be compatible and listed together as an eligible product. Use the AHRI number and make and model of the indoor and outdoor units provided by the mechanical system contractor to confirm that your heat pump is included on the list.
  - NOTE: the rebate listed on NRCan’s list of eligible products is only the Canada Greener Homes Grant rebate amount, not the Rebate for the Program

The invalidity, unenforceability, or illegality of any provision in these Terms and Conditions will not, to the extent permitted by applicable law, affect the validity, enforceability or legality of any other provision of these Terms and Conditions, which will remain in full force and effect. The insertion of headings is for convenience of reference only and will not affect the interpretation of these Terms and Conditions. The terms “hereof”, “hereunder”, and similar expressions refer to these Terms and Conditions and not to any particular section or other part of these Terms and Conditions. The word “including” means “including without limitation”, and the words “include” and “includes” have a corresponding meaning.
