Frequently Asked Questions (Peel Region & Greater Toronto Area)

Do I still need pre-approval for the 2026 HRSP in the Peel Region & Greater Toronto Area?

Yes, mandatory pre-approval is strictly enforced for the 2026 Home Renovation Savings Program (HRSP). You must not start any installation work until you have written approval, or your rebate will be voided.

What is the real difference between gas and non-gas rebates?

Homes completely disconnecting from gas (non-gas) often qualify for significantly higher tier rebates under the 2026 HRSP compared to hybrid systems that keep a gas furnace as backup.

How does real winter performance data affect my choice?

Lab ratings like HSPF2 don't tell the full story. Real -15°C data shows true capacity maintenance, ensuring your chosen heat pump won't rely heavily on expensive backup electric heating during the region's coldest days.
