From Ontario Clean Air Alliance
Do you currently use electricity to heat your home? If you do, we have some excellent news. You may qualify for a free heat pump – that can cut your heating costs in half – from Ontario’s Save on Energy program.
Households with moderate or low incomes can get a free heat pump, including full installation and a 10-year warranty, if they currently use electricity to heat their home.
A two-person household with a combined income of $64,095 or less, or a three person household with a combined income of $78,499 or less, (click here for all the income qualification thresholds for different household sizes) can apply to receive a zero cost heat pump that can cut heating costs by 50% compared to conventional electric baseboards or electric furnaces.
If you qualify, this Save on Energy program can help you save a bundle on heating costs while also ensuring your home has cooling for summer and comfortable heat all winter.
Heat pump usage is exploding thanks to superior performance and cost savings over gas furnaces. Last year, heat pumps outsold gas furnaces in the United States. Cold weather countries like Finland and Sweden are rapidly making the switch from fossil fuels to heat pumps.
This is a great opportunity to massively improve the energy efficiency of your heating system and help reduce the need for polluting gas-fired power generation. And it’s a breeze with full installation provided! Plus, you may also qualify for other energy saving upgrades, including free replacement appliances, such as ENERGY STAR® refrigerators, freezers, lighting and more.
