Heat pumps
Ducted, ductless and cold-climate heat pumps receive the most attention from provincial and federal programs.
Provincial, utility, municipal and federal programs can help with the cost of an efficient upgrade. We help you find out what applies to your home.
No heat, no hot water or a gas smell? Call any time, day or night.
HVAC rebates in BC come from several places at once: the provincial CleanBC programs, BC Hydro and FortisBC utility offers, top-ups from some municipalities and a handful of federal programs. Each has its own rules, its own list of qualifying equipment and its own deadlines, and they are updated often. It is easy to miss an offer or to install equipment that does not qualify.
Able Pro helps you sort through it. When we quote a heat pump, furnace, boiler or water heater upgrade, we check which current programs your home may qualify for, explain the requirements in plain language and help you prepare and submit the application. We cannot promise approval, since each program makes its own decisions, but we make sure you go in with the right information. The pages below cover each type of rebate in more detail.
Eligibility depends on the program, your home and your current fuel, so treat this as a starting point.
Ducted, ductless and cold-climate heat pumps receive the most attention from provincial and federal programs.
A heat pump paired with a gas furnace has been eligible for some utility and provincial offers.
Gas utility programs have at times supported replacing older furnaces with high-efficiency models.
Condensing boilers and combination space and water heating units have qualified for some gas utility rebates.
Heat pump water heaters and certain high-efficiency gas units may be included in current offers.
Some programs have offered dedicated rebates for heat pumps in individual strata suites.
During the quote we look at which provincial, utility, municipal and federal offers are open for your home.
We recommend equipment that meets the efficiency requirements of the programs you are aiming for.
We complete the installation and give you the invoice details, model numbers and records programs ask for.
We walk you through the forms and help you submit them correctly and on time.
Programs change often, so we confirm what is open at the time of your quote rather than relying on old lists.
We choose equipment that suits your home first, then check how it lines up with program rules.
Your quote shows the full price, so you know where you stand whether or not a rebate comes through.

Amounts vary by program, equipment, income level and where you live, and they change often. We confirm the offers that currently apply to your home when we prepare your quote.
Some programs have allowed stacking, while others limit it. The rules depend on the specific offers open at the time, and we will explain how they interact for your project.
Some programs require pre-registration or a home energy evaluation before installation, while others are claimed afterwards. Checking this early is important, which is why we cover it during the quote.
No. The Canada Greener Homes Grant has closed to new applicants. Other federal options, such as the Canada Greener Homes Loan and the Oil to Heat Pump Affordability program, have been offered, and we can help you check their current status.
No contractor can promise approval, because each program makes its own decisions. What we do is help you meet the requirements and submit complete, accurate paperwork.
Standalone central air conditioners rarely qualify. Heat pumps, which provide both heating and cooling, are the focus of most current programs.
