Canadians are no strangers to extreme temperatures. Which is why you need a dependable HVAC system, to combat both the bone-chilling winters and the scorching summers. Investing in a modern HVAC system that offers increased energy efficiency, smart technology, and enhanced control usually involves higher initial costs. Fortunately we have some solutions for upfront and long term savings! Discover how to reduce the cost of a new HVAC system:
Invest in an Energy-Efficient System
Choosing an HVAC system with strong SEER2 and EER2 ratings lowers energy consumption and bills. SEER2 measures seasonal cooling efficiency, while EER2 focuses on peak performance. These modern HVAC systems are designed with efficiency and durability in mind – meaning fewer repairs, lower maintenance costs, and longer lifespans.
Take Advantage of Government Rebates
Many provinces offer rebates to incentivize Canadians to choose high-efficiency HVAC systems. These rebates not only help you save on the upfront and long term cost of a new HVAC system, but also supports Canada’s broader efforts in combating climate change.
