How much can Enbridge rebates save me on a new furnace?

Enbridge Gas offers rebates up to $2,000 for high-efficiency furnace upgrades in Ontario, with most homeowners saving between $1,000-$1,500 on their furnace replacement project.

The Enbridge Home Efficiency Rebate Plus program provides tiered rebates based on your furnace's efficiency rating. You'll typically receive $1,000 for a furnace with 95% AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) or higher, and up to $2,000 when you combine multiple energy upgrades like adding a smart thermostat or improving insulation. The rebate increases if you're replacing a furnace that's 20+ years old or upgrading from a lower efficiency model.

In Ottawa's market, these rebates can significantly offset your investment. A high-efficiency furnace replacement typically costs $4,500-$6,500, so an Enbridge rebate of $1,000-$2,000 brings your net cost down to $2,500-$5,500. The program also offers additional incentives for low-income households and may include financing options to spread the remaining cost over time.

Important requirements to remember: Your new furnace must be installed by a licensed contractor (like our TSSA-certified technicians), and you'll need to submit your application within specific timeframes. The furnace must also meet minimum efficiency standards and be ENERGY STAR certified. Some rebates require a pre-approval process, so it's worth checking current program details before making your purchase.

Safety note: Only licensed G2/G3 gas technicians can legally install furnaces in Ontario, and installation requires a TSSA permit to ensure your system meets safety codes.

For current rebate amounts and to ensure you maximize your savings, we recommend checking Enbridge's website or requesting a consultation where we can help you navigate the rebate process and ensure your new furnace qualifies for maximum incentives.
