"The cold-climate matrix saved us. Contractors kept pushing a cheaper unit, but using the data here we went with the Carrier. It kept our Brampton home at 21°C during a -18°C deep freeze without using backup heat."

Installed: Carrier 37MUHAQ"I had no idea how the HRSP and CGHAP direct-install worked in the GTA. This site's step-by-step guide was clearer than the government portal. Got my insulation and heat pump upgraded for literally zero upfront cost."
— Marc L., Mississauga, ON

No. The original Canada Greener Homes Grant closed to new applicants and finished processing by December 31, 2025. It has been replaced by the Canada Greener Homes Affordability Program (CGHAP – direct-install for income-eligible households) and various provincial rebate programs.
For most Peel Region & Greater Toronto Area homeowners, provincial rebate programs are the primary path in 2026. Low-to-median income households should check CGHAP direct-install availability in their province. Federal EVAP provides nationwide support for eligible EV purchases.
Starting February 16, 2026, the Electric Vehicle Affordability Program (EVAP) offers up to $5,000 for battery-electric vehicles and up to $2,500 for plug-in hybrids, provided the transaction value is under $50,000 (unless Canadian-made).
