Retrofit Your Home and Qualify for a Grant!

Thinking of ways to make your home more energy efficient? Here’s what you can do to reduce your energy consumption and receive grants through ecoENERGY Retrofit.

Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) is offering a new residential energy efficiency assessment service to owners of single family homes including detached, semidetached and low-rise multi-unit residential buildings (MURBs) that are no more than three storeys high. Under the ecoENERGY Retrofit program, property owners can quality for federal grants by improving the energy efficiency of their homes, and reducing their home’s impact on the environment. NRCan-licensed energy advisors conduct a detailed
on-site assessment of your home’s energy use from the attic down to the basement. They then provide you with a personalized report, including a checklist of recommended retrofits to improve the energy efficiency of your home or MURB and, in some cases, to reduce water consumption. The report also shows the grant amounts for each eligible upgrade that you can receive by carrying out these energy saving improvements. The maximum grant you can receive for a home or MURB is $5,000.
