Three Easy Steps to Savings

Complete the Insulation Rebate Application Form

Download and print the Insulation Rebate Application
Purchase and Install Your Insulation

Select the materials to complete your project or a contractor to complete the work. Insulation material must be CSA approved and have a verifiable R-value.

Rebates will be given on the insulation added to achieve the recommended
R-value using the eligible material. Additional insulation may be added to existing insulation to increase the total insulation to the recommended R-value.

Rebates will not be paid on insulation beyond the recommended R-value. Rebates will be paid for basement/crawl space walls or ceilings, but not both.
Submit Your Application to Get Your Rebate

Once your project is finished, submit a completed and signed Insulation Rebate Application to your electricity provider. You must attach your original receipts for the purchase of your insulation material. (Original receipts can be returned by requesting on the application.) Allow up to eight weeks to process your rebate upon submission. Your electricity provider may conduct a post-installation visit before processing the rebate or within 12 months of the applicaiton date.
