LiveSmart BC: Effiency Incentive Program

Homeowners who make energy efficient upgrades to their homes may be eligible for provincial and federal incentives (ecoENERGY Retrofit Program) and PST exemptions through the British Columbia Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources.

A certified energy advisor with the LiveSmart BC: Efficiency Incentive Program will perform an energy assessment of your home and recommend cost-effective options for reducing energy use. Energy efficient improvements must be made within 18 months of the assessment. Eligible improvements include ground source heat pumps. For details phone 1.866.430.8765 or go to Live Smart BC.

NOTE: All components of each Energy Star qualified Air Source Heat Pump system must be referenced by a qualifying AHRI number. This includes new or existing furnaces, indoor and outdoor air handlers and heat pumps.

When you are ready to have True Green Geothermal install an Air Source Heat Pump please ask us for the "LiveSmart BC Notes for Contractors: ASHP" sheet. This will give you assurance that True Green Geothermal understands the requirements for qualifying for these incentives.
