Toggle TitleWhat are the terms of the $125 eligible ECM-equipped furnace installation offer?
For the $125 rebate on the installation of an eligible ECM-equipped furnace:
- Homeowners and businesses (with residential-type systems) must have an existing mid-efficiency or high-efficiency furnace that’s not currently equipped with an ECM. A new mid-efficiency or high-efficiency furnace equipped with an ECM has to be purchased.
- Service (including purchase and installation) MUST be performed by a participating contractor with the program.
- Homeowners and businesses (with residential-type systems) must install a mid- or high-efficiency furnace equipped with an ECM that is on the contractor’s list of eligible products.

- Your contractor must enter your online rebate by January 8, 2010 and the proof of purchase for eligible furnace ECM rebates must be postmarked no later than February 1, 2010.
An ECM (Electronically Commutated Motor) is a brushless motor technology in forced air heating applications that works to reduce the electrical consumption of the furnace motor by as much as 60% (over a standard motor).
Do oil, natural gas and propane furnaces qualify?
Yes, as long as they are included on the list of eligible products.
Why do electric furnaces no longer qualify for a rebate?
Because this is a rebate program that promotes electricity savings by replacing old inefficient furnaces to ENERGY STAR qualified high-efficiency furnaces, electric furnaces do not contribute sufficiently to electricity savings and therefore are no longer included in the rebates.
How do I know if the furnace equipment I am purchasing qualifies for the rebate?
Participating contractors have a list, by manufacturer, of the eligible ECM-equipped furnaces.
What are the terms of the $25 programmable thermostat rebate?
With the $25 programmable thermostat rebate:
- The offer applies to customers who don’t currently have a programmable thermostat.
- The programmable thermostat MUST be purchased from and installed by a participating contractor.
- Service MUST be performed between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2009.
- Your contractor must enter your online rebate by January 8, 2010 and the proof of purchase for thermostat rebate must be postmarked no later than February 1, 2010.
- Proof of purchase needs to indicate the word “programmable” in the description of the thermostat and should list the manufacturer’s name and model number.
- Where the thermostat is offered in combination with other products or services (for example, as part of a purchase of a complete heating and cooling system) the price of the thermostat doesn’t have to be shown separately on the invoice.
- Where the contractor’s invoice covers only the purchase and installation of a programmable thermostat, and no other pricing information pertaining to the purchase of the equipment or servicing is indicated, the invoice MUST clearly list the price of the thermostat.
What’s a programmable thermostat?
A programmable thermostat is a device which controls heating/cooling systems according to a set (or programmed) schedule that you determine. The thermostat allows you to automatically change the temperature in your home for different preset periods of time.
What are the benefits of installing a programmable thermostat? A
A programmable thermostat with a built-in timer lets you automatically change the temperature in your home when you leave for the day, and sets it back automatically to your desired temperature just before you return. Research indicates that the energy savings from thermostat setback is approximately 1% per degree Celsius.
Properly programmed, these thermostats can easily pay for themselves in the first year. Imagine the savings that could be had over a five or ten year period!
For example, while you’re home during the hot summer when your CAC is running, your thermostat can be set at 25ºC but when you’re away from the house your thermostat can be programmed for 28ºC.
Unfortunately not with this program, residents and businesses (with residential-type systems) who currently have a programmable thermostat are not eligible for the rebate.
The goal of this particular program is to encourage those individuals who have not installed a programmable thermostat to do so. That way, they can enjoy the energy and money savings these units make possible.
If I purchase and install a programmable thermostat myself, can I get the rebate?
In order to be eligible for the rebate, your thermostat MUST be supplied and installed by a participating contractor.
It’s important that you take advantage of your participating contractor’s expertise. While having your furnace serviced, have your programmable thermostat installed. Your contractor knows the best thermostat for your system. After it’s installed you’ll be shown how to use it properly to maximize energy efficiency.
This program focuses on the estimated 2 million central air conditioning units in Ontario that are running inefficiently or need to be replaced. When those old, inefficient units are replaced homeowners and businesses (with residential-type systems) save on their cooling costs, the government saves money on electricity generation and the environment benefits from reduced emissions. This is just one of the tools we have for helping you control your electricity costs.
What are the terms of the $250 ENERGY STAR qualified CAC system replacement offer?
The terms are as follows:
- The installation must be done between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2009.

What is an ENERGY STAR qualified air conditioning system?
The ENERGY STAR rating lets consumers know that any product carrying this designation meets or exceeds a premium level of energy efficiency. ENERGY STAR in Canada is a voluntary arrangement between Natural Resources Canada’s Office of Energy Efficiency and organizations that manufacture sell or promote products that meet the ENERGY STAR levels of energy performance. To learn more, visit www.energystar.gc.ca.
What’s an ARI Reference Number?
To qualify for the Cool Savings Rebate , the newly installed system must include an ENERGY STAR rated outdoor unit matched to a properly sized and specified indoor evaporator coil.
The ARI/CEE Verified Directory is the reference source for the new rebate fulfillment house when processing claims for ENERGY STAR qualified systems. Systems not listed on this database will not be accepted for claims. The ARI Reference number is MANDATORY and MUST be provided on the online rebate submission form. If not, the contractor will receive a letter from the new rebate fulfillment house requesting this information. A copy of this letter will be sent to the customer. Online rebate submission forms without the ARI Reference Number will be held up until an ARI Reference Number is obtained.
If you have questions or would like to know more about the ARI/CEE website, please contact HRAI.
After the proof of purchase is received it usually takes no longer than 3 to 4 weeks for the rebate cheque to arrive. Make sure the equipment meets the eligible requirements and that all of your documentation is in order. Check to make sure that the original invoice has been also been submitted.
Is it possible to check the status of my rebate submission?
