How the rebate works

What the rebate is.

Canada's new National Heat Pump Rebate is a federal program to help homeowners cover the cost of switching from oil, propane, diesel, electric baseboards, or an aging furnace to a modern heat pump.

As announced, households below median income could get up to $10,000 back, and other eligible households up to $2,000. The rebate launches through an online portal in early 2027 and is retroactive to qualifying installs from this fall.

Final amounts, income thresholds, and eligible equipment will be confirmed when the rules are published. We track every update and explain it in plain English — no jargon, no spin.
