GOVERNMENT REBATES FOR WINDOW REPLACEMENT: 23 WINDOW REBATES AVAILABLE RIGHT
NOW!


If you’re thinking about replacing your old windows with new, more efficient
ones, wouldn’t government rebates for window replacement help?

Well, you’re in luck! In this comprehensive guide, we show you all 29 government
incentives for windows across Canada (including popular Ontario window rebates),
and provide you with some insider tips for making the most of these little-known
programs.

But you need to meet all the eligibility criteria and follow the correct steps
to get the most benefit from the incentives…

5 Tips for Maximizing Your Window Rebates

Some programs offer homeowners incentives to upgrade their windows with more
efficient windows.

However, they may require that you have an energy assessment of your home
completed before and after your upgrades, and there may be other upgrades you
need to install before you qualify for the incentive.

To ensure your new window journey is as smooth as possible, remember these
important tips:




KEEP YOUR ASSESSMENT RECORDS & FILES

Keep your assessment records and files up to date and together as some programs
require that you send in a copy of your pre-upgrade assessment outlining
recommended upgrades, a checklist for the work completed, and a copy of the
post-upgrade assessment before you qualify for a rebate.




PROPERTY IS ELIGIBLE

Make sure that your property is eligible for the upgrade. If you are planning to
upgrade your windows in a vacation home or cottage, you may or may not be
eligible for the rebate.




KEEP ORIGINAL RECEIPTS

?Keep all your original receipts and product information, as some incentives
require that you provide the original receipt and product model number of your
windows.




KEEP RETAILER INVOICE

Keep your retailer invoice that included information such as the installation
address, the number of windows installed, the brand of window bought, the name
of the manufacturer, the type of windows bought, and the date of installation.




WINDOWS MAY HAVE DIFFERENT REQUIREMENTS

Each program that offers rebates on new windows may have different requirements.
Make sure your new windows meet the specific minimum requirements set out by
each individual program. Most programs will provide a list of eligible windows
for you to choose from.

With this in mind, let’s take a look at the different programs you might be able
to take advantage of, beginning with the nationwide CMHC Green Home Program:


FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WINDOW REBATES



 * CMHC Green Home

If you buy, build, or renovate for energy efficiency using CMHC-insured
financing, you could receive a 15% rebate for building a home to ENERGY STAR®
standards or up to 25% for building a home to R-2000 building standards.

To clarify, if you installed eligible windows as part of your energy-efficient
new build, that could help you qualify for the rebate, or if the house you
bought included qualifying energy-efficient windows, that could also help you
qualify for the rebate. At the same time, if you renovated your current home
using CMHC financing, you could still qualify for the rebate!


ALBERTA ENERGY REBATES FOR WINDOWS



 * Energy Efficiency Alberta’s Home Improvement Rebate Program

If you’re an Albertan homeowner interested in upgrading your windows for energy
efficiency, you’ll certainly want to participate in this program. While you can
save money on your new windows, you can also save on more:

 * Save up to $1,500 on new windows, $1,000 on a tankless water heater, up to
   $3,500 on new insulation, and much more!
 * Online rebates are also available for energy-efficient appliances and more
   (though there is a limit of two products per category per address). You can
   save as much as a $100 on refrigerators, washers, or smart thermostats!
 * This program also offers a Home Efficiency Tool calculator, which helps you
   calculate the savings potential of your home.
 * A first of its kind in Canada, this program even includes The Residential and
   Commercial Solar Program as part of the EEA, which offers incentives to
   homeowners, businesses, and non-profits that wish to install solar
   photovoltaic systems. Learn more about it and the qualifications here.
   
   
   
   

 * Seniors Home Adaptation and Repair Program (SHARP)



Seniors can receive a loan of up to $40,000 for seniors to make renovations for
safety, accessibility, or energy efficiency (including windows) to their primary
residence. You will repay the loan, with interest, when you move, or sell the
home, or sooner if you wish. You are not required to make monthly repayments.

The maximum household income for this home is $75,000 and applicants must have
at least 25% equity in their primary residence.

 * Home Energy Use Reduction
   
   
   
   

And if you live in Banff, you have another energy-saving rebate program you can
access to take advantage of lots of incentives, including one for windows and
doors:

 * $50 for window and door (ENERGY STAR certified) replacement
 * $200 for high-efficiency (ENERGY STAR certified) full-sized refrigerators
 * $650 for certified solar hot water systems
 * $100 for high-efficiency (ENERGY STAR certified) dishwashers
   
   
   
   
 * $50 for programmable thermostats
 * $500 for high-efficiency (ENERGY STAR certified) furnaces
 * $100 for energy audits
 * $100 for ENERGY STAR Most Efficient certified front-loading clothes washers


BC WINDOW REBATES



 * Home Renovation Rebate Program

When you make 3 or more eligible energy-efficient upgrades to your home, you can
receive a $750 rebate, and ENERGY STAR®windows and doors are considered an
eligible upgrade! However, you do need to replace at least 65% of your windows
and/or doors and make 2 more upgrades to qualify. There are also other
requirements you need to meet before you apply:

 * You must be a current FortisBC or BC Hydro residential customer in a
   participating municipality.
 * Electricity or natural gas must be the primary heating fuel for the home.
 * You must have a minimum 12 months’ utility billing history.
   
   
   
   
 * You must live in an eligible home.
 * You must complete both a pre- and a post-retrofit EnerGuide home evaluation
   with a qualified energy advisor.

You have up to 36 months after completing your pre-upgrade evaluation to
complete your eligible upgrades and apply for the $750 bonus.

Even if you don’t qualify for this program, there are options for low-interest
financing for energy-efficient upgrades throughout BC:

 * The City of Nelson EcoSave Energy Retrofits Program
   
   
   
   
 * RBC Energy Saver™ Loan
 * Vancity Energy Saver™ Loan


MANITOBA WINDOW REBATES 



 * Power Smart Residential Loan

For homeowners who would like to make energy-efficient upgrades to their
home—including windows and doors—Manitoba Hydro offers a low-interest loan. The
monthly payment is simply added to your bill.

It also covers qualifying upgrades for these other categories:

 * Residential space heating equipment
 * Insulation
 * Air leakage sealing
 * Ventilation
   
   
   
   
 * Residential water heating equipment
 * Electric vehicle chargers

You can finance up to $7,500 per residence, with a minimum loan amount of $500,
and the interest sits fixed at 4.8% for 5 years.


ONTARIO WINDOW REBATES



 * Green Ontario Fund
   
   
   
   

This not-for-profit agency uses its funds to help residents reduce their carbon
footprint and save money.

Get rebates of up to $20,000 depending on the systems you replace or add, which
could include ground- or air-source heat pumps, insulation, or windows. Simply
choose one of the participating contractors and get up to $500 per window (per
rough opening, meaning the window frames as well as the glass must be replaced)
up to 10 windows or $5,000 when you upgrade to select high-performance windows.

Don’t forget to take advantage of the free smart thermostat installation and
home energy review also included in the program!

 * Home Energy Loan Program

This program offers low-interest loans of up to $75,000 to qualifying homeowners
interested in improving the energy and water efficiency of their home. Windows
are a qualifying upgrade! The loans are paid back over time via installments on
your property tax bill with rates as low as 2% and terms of up to 15 years.

The entire amount financed cannot exceed 10% of your home’s current value and
can be paid off in full at any time.

 * Enbridge Home Energy Conservation Program

You can get up to $5,000 for installing 2 or more eligible measures and
completing a pre-energy audit through the Home Energy Conservation Program if
you are a qualified homeowner and an Enbridge customer.

Windows and doors ($80 rebate per rough opening, meaning the window frames as
well as the glass must be replaced) are eligible upgrades under this program, so
you only have to make one more upgrade from this list to qualify:

 * Heating system – up to $1,000 rebate
   
   
   
   
 * insulation – up to $1,750 rebate per insulation
 * Water heater – $500 rebate
 * Appliances – up to $75 rebate per appliance
 * Air-source heat pump – up to $4,000 rebate per appliance

Identical to the Enbridge program, Union Gas also offers up to $5,000 for
installing 2 or more eligible measures and completing a pre-energy audit through
the Home Energy Conservation Program if you are a qualified homeowner and a
Union Gas customer.

Windows and doors ($80 rebate per rough opening, meaning the window frames as
well as the glass must be replaced) are eligible upgrades under this program, so
you only have to make one upgrade from this list to qualify:

 * Air-source heat pump – up to $4,000 rebate per appliance
 * Central air conditioner – $600 rebate


NORTHWEST TERRITORIES WINDOW REBATES



 * Contributing Assistance for Repair and Enhancement Programs

Because it can be difficult and expensive to source and ship materials this far
north, this program helps homeowners to make necessary repairs to their home to
ensure a safe and healthy residence. Additional assistance is available if you
need to improve accessibility for someone with a disability.

You could receive a forgivable loan of up to $100,000 to subsidize the cost of
preventative maintenance checks, repairs, and renovations for your existing
home. The forgiveness period is dependent on the amount of assistance you
received, and a co-pay may be required depending on your household income.

If all you need is minor repairs, including windows, you should apply for
preventative maintenance assistance instead, also provided under this program.
You can apply for up to $3,000 yearly.


NOVA SCOTIA WINDOW REBATES



 * Efficiency Nova Scotia

Windows can be large source of heat loss in your home and make a large hole in
your wallet as a result. That’s why Efficiency Nova Scotia offers a rebate when
you upgrade to ENERGY STAR windows, doors, and/or skylights after you have a
Home Energy Assessment done on your house.

 * Emergency Repair Program

The Emergency Repair Program helps low-income homeowners in rural areas pay for
emergency repairs so they can continue to safely live in their homes. You can
receive a grant of up to $7,000 for such eligible repairs as these:

 * Heating systems
   
   
   
   
 * Chimneys
 * Doors and windows
 * Foundations
 * Roofs, walls, floors, and ceilings
 * Vents, louvres
   
   
   
   
 * Plumbing
 * Electrical systems

 * Provincial Housing Emergency Program

This additional program administered by Housing Nova Scotia helps homeowners
make emergency repairs to their homes. Eligible homeowners can receive a
forgivable loan up to $6,500 to help cover the costs of materials and labour.


NUNAVUT WINDOW REBATES



 * Home Renovation Program

The Nunavut Housing Corporation (NHC) created this program to help those who
have been residents of Nunavut for at least 2 years carry out repairs,
renovations, or additions to their home, including those done for the sake of
energy efficiency.

You can receive a forgivable loan to cover the cost of materials, freight, and
labour to a maximum amount of $65,000, depending on your household income,
provided any amount exceeding $50,000 is used specifically for energy efficient
improvements, including windows and doors.

In addition to the previously mentioned requirements to take part in this
program, you must also own your own home, not be in arrears with any local
housing organization in Nunavut or with the NHC, and work with an NHC-approved
contractor.

 * Emergency Repair Program
   
   
   

If you require emergency repair or replacement of your windows, you should take
advantage of this program that will give you a grant of up to $15,000, provided
the repair represents an imminent threat to your health and/or safety. The
eligibility requirements are the same as the previous program.

 * Senior Citizens Home Repair Program

In Nunavut, you are considered a senior if you’ve reached your 60th birthday. If
this is you and you need new windows for health, safety, or energy efficiency,
apply for this program.

It offers a grant of up to $15,000, plus freight costs, to those who need to
repair and/or adapt their homes to ensure their continued safety and/or to
assist with difficulties you encounter with daily living activities. You must
still meet the income requirements and have lived in Nunavut for at least 2
years.

 * Seniors and Disable Preventive Maintenance Repair Program
   
   
   
   

If you all you need to fix your windows is a few minor repairs to the hardware
and/or glass, then this is the program for you. However, you must be a senior
and/or receiving a disability benefit, have a household income under the
allowable threshold, and not be in arrears with any local housing corporation or
the NHC.

With this program, you could receive a grant of up to $3,000 to cover materials,
freight, and labour. You can apply for this program once each year.


PEI WINDOW REBATES



 * Home Energy Audit Program

Choose to have a home energy audit done by efficiencyPEI and they will subsidize
the cost of the audit and give you rebates when you upgrade your current windows
to ENERGY STAR zone 3 windows. The amount of the rebate depends on the number of
windows upgraded.

 * Envelope Upgrade Rebate Program

efficiencyPEI offers grants of $75 per opening, up to a maximum of $450, when
you install ENERGY STAR zone 3 windows and doors. However, you have to apply
before you start the work (and send the application along with your most recent
electric bill). Here’s what else you need to do:



 * Schedule a pre-retrofit inspection with efficiencyPEI or submit an EnerGuide
   Rating System audit report
 * Wait for your letter of acceptance before starting the work
   
   
   
 * Collect the dated sales receipts showing work completed
 * Mail the original copies of dated receipt(s) to efficiencyPEI

The rebate will only apply if the upgrades are done on your primary residence,
and you must live in it between November and April each year. You must also
ensure you tell the contractor that does the work for you that they must declare
all of their income from your project to the Canada Revenue Agency.

If you are a low-income home owner, efficiencyPEI offers increased rebate
amounts for the programs above.


QUEBEC WINDOW REBATES



 * Renoclimat® Renovations

Save money on your heating bills and stay warmer by replacing your windows.
Register with Rénoclimat and benefit not only from their expert guidance and
advice but also their financial assistance.

Using a certified contractor through the Rénoclimat program may also qualify you
for the RénoVert tax credit.

While there are a few eligibility requirements to qualify for this program, the
main qualification is that a blower door test will be done during the mandatory
energy evaluation of your home, and if can’t be performed for some reason, such
as in a home that is not sufficiently air tight, your home will not qualify for
the program. 



If you do qualify, you could get $60 for each rough opening (meaning the window
frames as well as the glass must be replaced).

 * Renovert Tax Credit

In tandem with the previous program, you can claim this tax credit if you
installed doors, windows, or skylights, or a combination of this and other
qualifying renovation work, totalling more than $2,500 using an approved
contractor and/or the Rénoclimat program.

 * Utility Program for Residential Renovations in Older Areas

If you’re lucky enough to live in greater downtown Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, you
can access a grant to fix any major defects in your windows!

This grant is 50% of eligible costs, not to exceed $5,000 per unit. For a
building to be eligible, the cost of the work must be at least $2,500.

 * Renoregion Program

This program will help you with major repairs to your home, including windows,
if you are low income and you live in rural Quebec, excluding northern or
reserve communities.

If you meet the criteria, such as having the work done on your primary
residence, you could get 95% of the cost of the eligible work, up to a maximum
of $12,000.

 * Renovation A La Carte
   
   
   

You can receive financial assistance if you need minor repairs to the windows in
a home that’s more than 20 years old if you live in Montreal.

While in most cases your home must be below the maximum value threshold, if you
have a child under 18 living with you, the maximum value does not apply. Either
way, you must live in a specific area designated by the program.

 * Major Residential Renovation

If the work you need done to your windows is larger in need and scope, this is
the program for you. Montreal provides financial assistance of up to 40% of the
cost of eligible repairs needed for a qualifying residential home.

The necessary work must be extensive and your house must be rundown and in a
designated sector to qualify for this program.


9 TIPS FOR MAKING OLD WINDOWS WORK



While it would be nice to be able to replace old windows with new,
energy-efficient windows, that’s just not always an option.

When you just can’t upgrade to new windows just yet, be sure to follow these
tips to save money, reduce your carbon footprint, and just plain stay warmer:




USE INSULATOR FILM

Use insulator film in the winter. This is a clear, thin plastic film much like
plastic wrap that you can install yourself in under an hour with nothing more
than a hair dryer and the provided double-sided tape. Find it in any hardware
store.




INSTALL EFFICIENT STORM WINDOWS

Consider looking into purchasing and installing high-efficiency, low-emissivity
(low-e) storm windows. Though they are less effective than brand new windows,
they cost less, and you can buy permanent, seasonal, or temporary versions. They
help by creating an insulating air space between the two window layers.




USE BLINDS OR CURTAINS

Always use blinds and/or curtains. Though you want to make sure that they don’t
completely block the air surface across the window, blinds and curtains can help
you reduce drafts and heat loss. Look for thermal curtains to reduce the most
heat loss.




REPAIR WINDOW CAULKING

Add or repair and replace window caulking and weatherstripping. Window frames
are one of the biggest sources of heat loss in a home, so use caulking to fill
up holes and cracks in non-moving windows and use weatherstripping on movable
windows. When choosing weatherstripping, ask the staff at your hardware store
for the most appropriate type.

 * If you’re considering weatherstripping and caulking, check out your local
   utility company’s, province’s, or municipality’s websites. Many programs
   across Canada offer free weatherstripping and/or caulking as part of their
   energy audit programs, especially if you have low income.
 * Consider having an expert conduct an energy assessment on your home first so
   you can see exactly where you’re losing heat and can pinpoint the caulking
   and weatherstripping accordingly. Many utility companies offer at least a
   rebate on the cost of an assessment.
 * If you still can’t afford or don’t want to have an assessment done, at least
   give the smoke test a try: use an incense or smoke-puffer stick to see where
   the drafts are. 




?ADD ANOTHER LAYER OF GLASS

Try adding another layer of glass to an existing window. It takes more care and
precision than replacing a window, but it can be done, and it’s cheaper.




SECONDARY GLAZING

Secondary glazing can also help reduce heat loss. At the same time, it also
helps reduce outside noise.




REPLACE THE SASH

You can also replace only the sash that holds the window glaze. Make sure you
use wood, hollow or insulation-filled vinyl, or fiberglass to help reduce the
transference of cold inside and heat outside.




UPGRADE THE FRAME

Another option if you don’t want to replace a whole window just yet is to
upgrade the window frame only. By choosing a frame with a Window Energy Rating
Scheme (WERS) label, you will let less air out of your house.




INSTALL WINDOW INSERTS

If all else fails and you can’t or don’t want to shell out for new windows,
whether because of the cost or the charm of old windows in old houses, these
days, you can simply install window inserts. These are much like storm windows,
but they are installed on the inside of the house.

You can even install them yourself with no tools because they use a compression
system, so they just pop in and out. The inserts also have weatherstripping
around them to stop drafts and reduce noise.


3 IMPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER WHEN BUYING NEW WINDOWS



With all the rebates and incentives available countrywide to help you purchase
new windows so you can be kind to both yourself and the environment, it’s easier
and more affordable than ever before to give those new windows a shot.

Before you dive in though, make sure you do your homework so you get the right
windows for you, your home, and your incentive:




1.) MAKE SURE YOU LOOK FOR THE ENERGY STAR LABEL!

This label tells you that you are getting an energy-efficient window. Because
ENERGY STAR labels are divided into categories based on climate, you can be sure
that by choosing the matching ENERGY STAR label for your climate zone, you are
getting the perfect window for you home, wherever you live. 


“



ENERGY STAR labels are given based on one of two standards—ER ratings or
U-values. ER ratings are based on the overall efficiency of the window;
therefore, a higher rating is better. U-values tell you how much heat is lost
out the window; therefore, a lower number is better.




2.) YOU HAVE CHOICES!

There are many different window manufacturers to choose from (and many different
ways window manufacturers achieve the ENERGY STAR standard). This means they all
do the same thing in the end, but use different technologies to get there:

 * Gas-filled: some windows are filled with an inert gas because heat does not
   conduct through inert gases as easily as it does through air.
   
   
   
 * Gas-filled with low-conductivity spacers: these gas-filled windows have an
   extra layer of insulation in the form of a spacer that separates the two
   panes of glass. The spacers also reduce condensation in the winter.
 * Fixed-picture: if you’re replacing a window in an area of your home that
   really never needs to be opened, consider using these windows.
 * Insulating films (low-e) : consider using these new, energy-efficient add-ons
   for your new windows. Applied directly to the glass, this invisible coating
   blocks UV light, keeping you warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.
   It also protects your possessions from sun damage. Windows with a low-e
   coating cost about 10% more than other windows but reduce up to 50% more heat
   loss.
 * Double-and triple-glazed windows have a sealed air space between the panes.
   These extra spaces reduce heat loss and outside noise.




3.) DON’T FORGET ABOUT THE FRAMES!

Aluminum, wood, vinyl, combination, and fibreglass frames come with different
costs but, as with ENERGY STAR labels on the windows themselves, also come with
different levels of effectiveness.

 * Aluminum is strong and needs little maintenance but needs low-conductivity
   spacers to reduce heat loss and condensation.
 * Wood is strong, energy-efficient, and lasts a long time, but it requires
   maintenance.
 * Vinyl frames strike a good balance between energy-efficiency and maintenance.
 * Combination frames come in aluminum-wood or vinyl-wood formats and they also
   have a nice balance between energy-efficiency and maintenance. They also look
   great!
   
   
   
 * Fibreglass frames are a little more rare and costly but offer the greatest
   energy efficiency and strength with little maintenance. Some even come with
   foam insulation to further reduce heat loss.

So now that you’re armed with all this information, why not look into upgrading
your windows? It will help to lower your heating and cooling costs, increase
your home’s comfort level, and reduce your carbon footprint!

And if those weren’t enough reasons, choosing the right new windows can also
reduce condensation, lower outside noise, and protect your belongings from sun
damage.

Check out the rebates in your area and get started on a greener, more
energy-efficient path!

     We put new windows and doors in our home last fall 2018. We live in
     Ontario. They were installed by centennial window and doors. Do we qualify
     for some help? It was rather expensive.

     Hello
     I have installed 3 retrofit windows since last July 2018 and I am still
     waiting for my rebate. Every time I call the company. He says he has not
     received the money as yet from government.
     How long will this take?

     Do the windows have to be installed by a contractor, or can they be
     installed by us?

     I have never heard back about my question regarding why Saskatchewan does
     not have any rebates for windows. We are in need of replacing our windows.
     Please have someone check on this.

     I also notice that there are no incentives for people in Saskatchewan.
     Where do we apply for window replacement rebates?
