Save on Energy Costs with FortisBC Rebates

Upgrading your home’s heating system is a great way to save on energy bills while improving your home’s comfort and efficiency. If you’re considering making the switch to an energy-efficient heat pump, now is the time. In British Columbia, there are several rebate programs that can help make this upgrade more affordable.

While programs like CleanBC offer significant incentives, many homeowners have also been benefiting from FortisBC’s Dual-Fuel Heating System Rebates. These initiatives allow homeowners with outdated or old gas furnaces to get a needed upgrade for less!

What Are FortisBC Dual-Fuel Heating Rebates?

FortisBC offers two key rebate programs designed to make your heating system upgrade more affordable:

Dual-Fuel Heating System Rebate for Income-Qualified Customers

If you’re an income-qualified homeowner, you could be eligible for a rebate of up to $15,000 when you install a dual-fuel heating system. This includes the installation of an electric heat pump combined with a natural gas furnace.

• Why It’s Great: You get year-round energy savings from the heat pump and reliable heating from the gas furnace during colder months.
• Income Qualification: Eligibility is based on household income, so this program is ideal for families looking to lower their upfront costs while enjoying long-term savings.

Dual-Fuel Heating System Rebate

This rebate is available to homeowners who install an electric heat pump system combined with a natural gas furnace, even if they don’t meet income qualifications. Rebates are offered up to $10,000, depending on the system you choose and the specifics of your installation.

• Who Can Benefit: Homeowners who want an efficient heating and cooling system with lower energy costs and improved comfort.

Both programs emphasize the importance of energy efficiency, providing homeowners with significant savings while reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Why Choose a Dual-Fuel Heating System?

A dual-fuel heating system combines the best features of a heat pump and a gas furnace:

• Efficiency: Heat pumps are very efficient in providing both cooling and heating during mild weather.
• Reliability: During colder months, the gas furnace provides consistent and dependable heating.
• Cost Savings: By optimizing the use of both systems, you can reduce your energy bills while staying comfortable year-round.

FortisBC is providing these rebates to encourage energy efficiency, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and support homeowners' transition to more sustainable and cost-effective heating systems.
