#68 A Home Upgrade Journey: Making your Home Energy Efficient

When the homeowners of the Richmond Hill home decided they wanted to make their home more energy efficient and comfortable, they turned to the Canadian Choice Home Improvements Group for help. Our team of experts facilitated a comprehensive energy assessment and explained the available rebates and financing options, while also providing advice on upgrades to improve energy efficiency.

Windows and Doors Upgrade

Earlier in the year in January 2022, the Richmond Hill homeowners had already replaced their old windows with new energy-efficient DraftLock windows. The new windows were triple glass and helped to improve the overall energy efficiency of the home. The homeowners received a rebate of $3,900 for this upgrade.

Heat Pump Upgrade

The final upgrade was to change out their heating and AC system to a Bryant Heat Pump. The family received a $6,100 rebate for this upgrade and their Enbridge gas bill has been reduced by 70%. This has resulted in significant monthly savings on their energy bills.

Cost of the Project and Savings

The cost of the entire project was over $52,000, but the homeowners will see a saving of over $25,000 over the next 15 years of home ownership. The value added to their home is estimated at $150,000. 

Monthly payments:

  • Windows and doors – $159 per month
  • Heat pump – $129 per month
  • Monthly savings on their Enbridge gas bills are $160

Actual monthly spend after the savings – ONLY $128
