Take advantage of different rebates for new energy efficient home heating systems! If you purchase and have an ENERGY STAR® or equivalent model installed and you can receive a rebate of up to $1000. In addition, If you also install an eligible connected thermostat, you could qualify for a $150 rebate.
It’s important to review rebate requirements before you purchase a new furnace. First of all, make sure the product you are planning to purchase is eligible for a FortisBC rebate. You will need to review all the details and/or call us to discuss your options. Second, rebates themselves are often changing. As a Fortis BC Trade Ally Member, we will ensure that you are aware of what rebates are relevant to you and how you can claim them.
