A few days ago, I put in my claims for the Provincial rebates on my new furnace and new tankless water heater. I should be due back $750 from the Provincial Government. Yay!
I would have been entitled to more, at least $800 more from the Federal Government, except my install date was exactly one month before they reinstated their rebate program. One month. Argh!
I was told that the Feds were going to restart it, but in May, no one had any clear ideas. I did do my Pre Energy Evaluation, and got the $100 rebate for that from the Province. Once I do my Post Energy Evaluation, I'll get another $100 from the Province, and the rebates for insulation, etc offered, as well as the same from the Feds plus their rebate for the Pre and Post Evaluations.
It all has to be done before the March 2012 deadline. This basement thing sure threw a wrench in that. I've gone backwards in the insulation parade. A major rebate winner if I had my basement back to normal. The time line doesn't look so forgiving.
On the bright side, I'm looking at at least another $300 back, for a lovely total of about $1000 back. Would have been nice to have that extra $800 tacked on. I may have to do some calling, since the furnace and water heater were paid for after the reinstated rebate program started.
