The audit question

Audit required

A home energy assessment with an NRCan-registered energy advisor is required for most projects. Exception: heat-pump-only and rooftop-solar-only projects.

Who qualifies

Toronto homeowners. 20-year terms are limited to solar, geothermal, window, or heat pump projects.

Worth knowing

Stacks with Home Renovation Savings rebates — a common path is HELP financing + HRSP rebates + the $600 assessment rebate.
