CleanBC Better Homes Rebates for Furnaces
BC’s CleanBC program focuses primarily on heat pump transitions, but may offer additional rebates for high-efficiency furnace upgrades in conjunction with heat pump installations. Check betterhomesbc.ca or ask ROMA about current combined rebate opportunities.
Canada Greener Homes Grant
The federal Canada Greener Homes Grant offers up to $5,000 for qualifying home energy efficiency upgrades, including furnace replacement with a qualifying heat pump. This requires an EnerGuide home energy assessment before and after the upgrade. ROMA can advise on eligibility during your consultation.
How to Claim Your Furnace Rebate
- Hire a registered FortisBC contractor (ROMA is registered)
- Choose a qualifying high-efficiency furnace (≥95% AFUE)
- ROMA completes the installation and collects required documentation
- ROMA submits the rebate application on your behalf
- FortisBC processes and mails your rebate cheque (typically 6–10 weeks)
Service Areas
ROMA processes furnace rebates for customers throughout Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey, Coquitlam, New Westminster, North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Port Moody, Port Coquitlam, Delta, Langley, Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows, and Abbotsford.
- Do I need to apply for the FortisBC furnace rebate myself?
- No — ROMA is a registered FortisBC contractor and submits all rebate paperwork on your behalf. You don’t need to navigate the FortisBC portal or gather documentation — we handle it all.
- Is a 96% AFUE furnace eligible for FortisBC rebates?
- Yes — furnaces with 95% AFUE or higher that are replacing less efficient units qualify for FortisBC rebates. ROMA only installs furnaces that qualify for maximum rebate eligibility.
- Can I get a rebate for replacing a furnace that still works?
- Yes — you don’t need to wait for your furnace to fail. Proactive replacement of an older low-efficiency furnace (80% AFUE or lower) with a new high-efficiency unit qualifies for FortisBC rebates. Many homeowners get better rebates by replacing before their old furnace becomes an emergency.
- How long does it take to receive the FortisBC furnace rebate?
- FortisBC typically processes rebate applications within 6–10 weeks of submission. The rebate arrives as a cheque mailed to your address on file with FortisBC.
- Are rebates available for furnace installation in Abbotsford or Fraser Valley?
- FortisBC serves most of Greater Vancouver and the Fraser Valley. Customers in FortisBC’s natural gas service territory qualify for the same furnace rebates as Vancouver customers. ROMA installs throughout the region and processes all applicable rebates.
