Yes, you can combine federal and provincial/municipal rebates for a new HVAC system in Alberta. In fact, combining these programs is a recommended way to maximize your financial return and significantly lower the upfront costs of installing an energy-efficient system.
Key ways you can stack these incentives include:
- Federal and Municipal Stacking: Programs such as the Canada Greener Homes Grant (federal) can be used alongside the Clean Energy Improvement Program (CEIP), which offers municipal financing in areas like Calgary and Rocky View County.
- Dual Fuel Incentives: Specific configurations, such as a dual fuel heat pump system, may qualify for extra incentives while still being eligible for broader federal grants.
- Complementary Financing: Municipal programs like CEIP are designed to complement air source heat pump rebates by providing low-cost financing (up to $20,000) that can be repaid through property taxes, while you simultaneously collect federal grant money like the Canada Greener Homes Grant (up to $5,000).
Professional installers like Northstar Heating & Cooling can assist in identifying all eligible programs and handling the necessary paperwork to ensure you receive the maximum total benefit from available savings.
