BRITISH COLUMBIA— Local MP Taylor Bachrach (Skeena-Bulkley Valley) is welcoming the news that the feds and the Province are boosting heat pump rebates in B.C., just months after his motion in the House of Commons called for the move.
“These changes to the heat pump rebates are very much in line with what I’ve pushed for in Parliament,” said Bachrach. “Heat pumps can save Canadians thousands of dollars per year, but for lower income Canadians the upfront cost can be a big challenge. The bigger rebate is going to help get more heat pumps installed so British Columbians can heat their homes more cleanly and affordably.”
Dependent on Northern B.C. homeowners income, people could see a rebate as high as $19,000.
“Cold-climate heat pumps tend to cost more, which is why it’s good to see the B.C. government create a special top-up for our northern region,” said Bachrach.
