Government programs

Hydro-Québec’s LogisVert program pays $120 per 1,000 BTU/h (measured at −8 °C) for an ENERGY STAR “cold climate” heat pump, and $50 for other ENERGY STAR heat pumps. The federal National Heat Pump Rebate offers $2,000, or up to $10,000 for households below the median income, for a heat pump installed from November 1, 2026; applications will go through a portal expected to launch in early 2027. We tell you what your project may qualify for with the quote.

The owner applies online, no later than 9 months after the installation. The heat pump must be new, ENERGY STAR certified, bought in Quebec, and installed by a contractor with the right RBQ licence who is a member of its trade corporation. We give you an invoice with everything the form asks for and help you fill it in. Ask for a quote.

The federal program’s page doesn’t yet say whether it combines with LogisVert: check both programs’ terms. For the federal rebate, the heat pump must be on Natural Resources Canada’s eligible products list, by its AHRI number, and bought from an HVAC contractor; you must reside in Canada and own the home, there is one rebate per household, and your receipts must be submitted within six months (see Canada.ca). The current terms are on Canada.ca, on the National Heat Pump Rebate page. Keep your detailed invoice and the unit’s spec sheet, and call us.

In Quebec, an oil furnace can no longer be replaced with an oil or gas appliance: only normal maintenance and minor repairs are allowed, and a major repair, such as the combustion chamber, means switching to a renewable system, such as a heat pump. A heat pump replacing oil qualifies for LogisVert, and for the federal rebate if it meets its terms (see the previous question). We replace oil furnaces with heat pumps, and a team we work with removes the oil tank. Call us for a conversion quote.
