Install an efficient boiler and earn a cash rebate of up to 75% of the purchase price premium.
Conserving energy is not only good for the environment; it can also be good for your bottom line when you use high efficiency, natural gas hydronic space heating systems.
Program overview
If you're a commercial building owner, developer, consulting engineer or contractor, we can help you select an efficient boiler configuration for your project. What's more, we can help you with financial incentives for installing or upgrading to condensing or near-condensing boilers.
Incentives
For all participants, the purchase price incentive applies to the incremental purchase price of a natural gas near-condensing or condensing boiler over the purchase price of a standard efficiency boiler.
Purchase price incentives are based on space heating and ventilating load. They will be calculated as follows:
- near-condensing boilers: $4,000 per boiler plus $3 per MBH plant input
- condensing boilers: $6,000 per boiler plus $9 per MBH plant input
The purchase price of a standard-efficiency boiler will be estimated using $7 per MBH of the input required to meet the space heating load and ventilating load. For more information, contact us at 1-866-884-8833.
Additional incentives
In new construction
We will contribute 50 per cent of a consultant's fees to a maximum of $1,500 toward the cost of analyzing the annual gas usage for space heating using a standard efficiency boiler system versus a higher efficiency boiler system. Purchase price incentive payments are limited to a maximum of 75 per cent of the purchase price premium over a standard efficiency boiler.
In the replacement market
The program will pay your contractor up to a maximum of $400 for performing an estimate of the peak space heating load. The program will pay 50 per cent of the cost of the necessary venting modifications up to a maximum of $2,000. The program will also pay a monitoring incentive of $1,500 during the first year of operation plus $1 per gigajoule of total natural gas saved. Purchase price incentive payments are limited to a maximum of 50 per cent of the purchase price premium over a standard efficiency boiler.
ecoENERGY Retrofit
If you own small or medium-sized buildings, you may be eligible for additional incentives through Natural Resources Canada's ecoENERGY Retrofit financial incentive program for buildings.
