Heat Pump Rebates in BC
If your house is heated with electric baseboards or an electric furnace, BC Hydro offers a heat pump rebate of up to $4,000 to switch. This guide explains how much you can get, who qualifies and the steps to follow. Mendieta ACS installs the heat pump and helps you with the rebate.
How Much Is the BC Hydro Heat Pump Rebate?
- Whole-home heating: up to $4,000, when the heat pump covers 100% of your home’s heating needs at -5°C.
- Partial-home heating: $1,500, when the heat pump covers 50% or more of your home’s heating needs.
- Multiple upgrades: a separate bonus of up to $2,000 when you complete more than one upgrade.
Note: Rebates can’t exceed the invoiced and paid cost.
Who Qualifies for a Heat Pump Rebate in BC?
- You’re a BC Hydro residential customer.
- The heat pump replaces your main all-electric heating, such as electric baseboards or an electric furnace.
- Homes over 1,200 sq. ft. need a multi-split or central heat pump.
- The heat pump is on the rebate-eligible list and has a variable-speed compressor.
