CleanBC is a program designed to help homeowners switch to more energy-efficient systems like heat pumps without taking on the full financial burden.

The goal is simple:

  • Lower your energy bills.
  • Make your home more comfortable year-round.
  • Reduce overall energy use.

And they will actually help pay for it.

The Part Most People Do Not Realise

There is an income-qualified option that offers significant rebates.

We have had conversations with homeowners who assumed they would not qualify, and it turned out they did. If your household income falls within certain ranges, you could be eligible for much larger savings than the standard rebates. It is worth checking.

We Will Help You Figure It Out

This is usually where people get stuck, not because they do not want to upgrade, but because the process feels confusing. That is where we step in. At Rep-Air, we will:

  • Take a look at your current system.
  • Help you understand what you qualify for.
  • Walk you through the rebate process.
  • Make sure everything is set up properly from start to finish.

You do not have to try to piece it together on your own. If you want the full qualification rules, our heat pump rebates guide goes through CleanBC, FortisBC, and the federal programs step by step.

Still Worried About Cost?

Even with rebates it is still an investment, and we get that. That is why we offer payment options to help spread things out in a way that actually works for you. A lot of homeowners end up combining:

That makes the numbers feel a lot more manageable.

Why People Are Making the Switch

Most people do not do this for one reason. It is usually a mix of things:

  • Their current system is unreliable or expensive to run.
  • Parts are getting harder to find.
  • Their home has hot and cold spots.
  • They want heating and cooling in one system.

A heat pump solves a lot of those problems in one go. If you are weighing it against staying with gas, our heat pump vs. furnace comparison lays out the trade-offs for Fraser Valley homes.
