The federal government has renewed the popular ecoENERGY Retrofit - Homes program. Until March 31, 2012, homeowners can receive grants up to $5,000 to make their homes more energy-efficient and save energy costs. This year’s program has two important changes. Participants must now register directly with the program before booking an evaluation. They must also provide receipts to their energy advisor at the time of the post-retrofit evaluation to confirm their eligibility for an ecoENERGY grant. Only products purchased after June 6, 2011, and installed after a pre-retrofit evaluation are eligible for a grant. Visit www.ecoaction.gc.ca/homes.
