What Can You Qualify For With the Greener Homes Rebate?

The Canadian Greener Homes Initiative provides up to 700,000 rebates of up to $5,000 to homeowners who are looking to make energy-efficient changes or upgrades to their homes. Some of the items that may be covered by the initiative include better insulation or upgraded heating and cooling units. The Initiative also provides free EnerGuide evaluations with an energy expert to help homeowners plan retrofits and changes that will be most valuable to them and help them maximize the amount of energy they are saving. These evaluations typically cost up $600, so it is a huge savings to get this for free.
