For Canadian homeowners getting heat pump quotes

Canadian Heat Pump Quote & Rebate Kit

Installers quote rebates as often as they quote equipment, and the two don’t always match what the program pays. This kit shows what you qualify for in your province, what has to happen before you sign, and how your quotes compare line by line.

The mistake it’s built to catch

Ontario’s Home Renovation Savings rebate pays $1,250 per ton, up to $7,500. For a typical 1,500–2,000 sq ft home (2.5 tons), that is $3,125, not the $7,500 maximum. A quote that subtracts the full maximum makes a high price look reasonable. The workbook flags it.

It also flags the rules that cost people the whole rebate: in Ontario the installer must file before any work starts; in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick the energy assessment must come before you buy anything. 5 of 9 provinces had a market-rate heat pump rebate open on October 10, 2026; the kit says plainly which ones don’t, and what the federal rebate due in early 2027 changes.

What’s inside

• Your province’s rebate playbook. Every open program, what it pays at your home’s size, and the steps in order, including the ones that have to happen before you sign. All nine provinces, checked October 10, 2026.
• The federal rebate: install now or wait?. What is confirmed about the National Heat Pump Rebate due in early 2027, what is not, and a step-by-step way to decide whether to install now or wait, depending on whether your heating still works.
• Quote comparison workbook. Enter up to three quotes. It totals each one, works out the rebate you qualify for, and lists what to ask each installer about: missing model numbers, units not on the rebate list, capacity that falls short, rebates promised above what the program pays.
• 20 questions for every installer. And what a good answer sounds like.
• Contract red flags. The rental, lien and service-plan terms that turn a heat pump purchase into a ten-year payment.
• Sizing sanity check and commissioning checklist. How to read the heat loss report, and what the installer should test before you pay the balance.

Questions

What format is it?

A PDF guide and an Excel workbook that also opens in Google Sheets and Numbers. Download immediately after purchase.

Does it cover the new federal rebate?

Yes. The kit has a section on the National Heat Pump Rebate, announced October 8, 2026: the amounts, how applying is expected to work, what is still unknown, and how to decide whether to wait for it. When the government publishes the rules, buyers get the updated edition by email.

What if a rebate changes after I buy?

Every program page the kit relies on is checked weekly. When a program changes, buyers get the updated edition by email.

Is this the same as the free guides on the site?

The site explains how heat pumps and rebates work. The kit is the working version: your province’s claim steps in order, and a workbook that checks your actual quotes.

What if it doesn’t help?

Reply to your purchase email within 30 days and you get your money back. No questions.

Do you sell my details to installers?

No. This site doesn’t pass anyone’s details to contractors, and buying the kit doesn’t change that.

This kit is general information to help you compare quotes and ask better questions. It is not engineering, legal or financial advice, and each program’s current terms override it.
