We&#8217;re excited to share the details of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.enbridgegas.com\/ontario\/rebates-energy-conservation\/home-efficiency-rebate\">2024 Enbridge Gas Rebate Program<\/a>, a fantastic opportunity for homeowners to make their homes more energy-efficient while enjoying significant savings. This blog post will walk you through the rebate program, focusing on HVAC upgrades and touching on other key improvements.<\/p>\n<h2>What is the 2024 Enbridge Gas Rebate Program?<\/h2>\n<p>The Enbridge Gas Rebate Program, effective from July 15, 2024, offers financial incentives for homeowners to improve their home&#8217;s energy efficiency. By upgrading insulation, installing energy-efficient heating systems, and making other energy-saving improvements, you can qualify for rebates that help offset the cost of these upgrades. The program aims to reduce energy consumption, lower utility bills, and promote a greener environment.<\/p>\n<h2>Key HVAC Upgrades and Rebates<\/h2>\n<h3>1. Air Source Heat Pumps<\/h3>\n<p>Air source <a href=\"https:\/\/barrieheatingcooling.ca\/hvac-services\/heat-pumps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">heat pumps<\/a> are an efficient way to heat and cool your home. The rebate for installing an air source heat pump depends on the system&#8217;s size and efficiency. Here\u2019s a quick overview of the incentives:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Non-Cold Climate Systems:\n<ul>\n<li>1 Ton: $250<\/li>\n<li>1.5 Ton: $375<\/li>\n<li>2.0 Ton: $500<\/li>\n<li>2.5 Ton: $625<\/li>\n<li>3.0 Ton: $750<\/li>\n<li>3.5 Ton: $875<\/li>\n<li>4.0 Ton and Greater: $1,000<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Cold Climate Systems:\n<ul>\n<li>1 Ton: $500<\/li>\n<li>1.5 Ton: $750<\/li>\n<li>2.0 Ton: $1,000<\/li>\n<li>2.5 Ton: $1,250<\/li>\n<li>3.0 Ton: $1,500<\/li>\n<li>3.5 Ton: $1,750<\/li>\n<li>4.0 Ton and Greater: $2,000<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>2.
