Victoria Watcher posted topic Heat pumps

lpoutine,

Victoria Watcher has just posted a new topic entitled "Heat pumps" in forum "Urban Design".

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's how B.C. heat pump rebates are about to spike Under a new $253-million program, some B.C. residents could receive up to $24,000 to switch from oil heating to a heat pump.The money behind the Oil to Heat Pump Affordability Program represents a 70 per cent increase in green energy rebates and expands the program to middle-income households who want to replace their gas or oil furnace with a heat pump. Qualifying British Columbians, said B.C.'s Minister of Energy, Mines and Low Carbon Innovation Josie Osbourne, could "essentially get a free heat pump through this program."

"And then you also get the health benefits of a new cooling system in your home."

Osbourne said the money will increase the maximum rebate amount for a new heat pump to $16,000, up from $9,500.

Those living in northern B.C. will be eligible for another $3,000 top-up to account for the cost of cold weather heat pump technology. Osbourne said successful applicants may also receive up to $5,000 for electrical service upgrades to install and run a heat pump.
