The Home Renovation Savings Program

Enbridge Gas and Save on Energy, together, with Ontario government support. Two pathways, and they are not interchangeable.

Book a check What the rebate pays
How the attic rebate is calculated against the invoice, including the fifty per cent ceiling Two houses, same tier, different outcome House A · invoice $3,400 $1,250 back Tier pays $1,250, and $1,250 is under half the invoice. Paid in full. House B · invoice $1,900 $950 back Same tier, but the ceiling is half the invoice, so $950 is the answer. Rebate is capped at 50% of the project cost after tax. Figures are examples. We put the real number on your quote before you sign anything.

The fifty per cent ceiling, applied

What it is

A province-wide programme delivered by Enbridge Gas and Save on Energy with support from the Ontario government, paying homeowners to improve the energy performance of their houses. It replaced the earlier Home Efficiency Rebate arrangements and it has two routes with different rules.

Route one — attic only, no assessment

One measure, no energy advisor, installed by a participating contractor. One attic rebate per home, ever, capped at half the invoice after tax.

What is up there nowUpgraded toMaximum rebate
R–12 or less — under about 4 inchesR–50$1,250
R–12 to R–25 — about 4 to 8 inchesR–50$1,000
R–25 to R–35 — about 8 to 11 inchesR–50$800

Route two — assessment required

An energy advisor assesses the house before and after. At least two upgrades; a third adds a $500 bonus.

Who is eligible

  • You own the home and have owned it more than six months.
  • Detached, semi-detached, row or townhouse (not stacked), or a mobile home on a permanent foundation.
  • An active Enbridge Gas account if the house is heated by a gas furnace or boiler; otherwise connected to the Ontario electricity grid, for homes on electricity, oil, propane or wood.
  • The house has not had an attic insulation rebate before, under you or a previous owner.

The deadline, and why we removed ours

No closing date is published by either programme publisher. We checked both on 24 September 2026. This site used to carry a countdown to 30 November 2026, taken from the trade rather than the source, and we took it down rather than leave it up because it worked.

Common questions

Is this the same as the Canada Greener Homes Grant?

No. The Greener Homes grant was federal and is closed. Home Renovation Savings is an Ontario programme run by Enbridge Gas and Save on Energy.

Do I get the money or does the contractor?

You do. The programme pays the homeowner after the work. The installing contractor prepares and submits the file because the claim requires it.
