We have been receiving many questions about this new program and we have some good news and some not as good news:
- The good news is that you do not have to do anything on your end, except for make the investment in Energy Star Rated Zone 2 (Canada is split into 3 zones and Calgary falls in 2) Triple Pane windows, in any frame materials.
- The not as good news is that if you do not have the budget or need to upgrade to the top of the line triple pane high efficiency windows, this rebate is not going to pay for a free upgrade for you. It will simply subsidize the costs of triple pane windows but still require an additional investment as a homeowner to invest to a level above double pane windows.
The most important points are:
- This rebate applies to single family or semi-detached or row style townhomes only. Not multi family condominium projects.
- This applies to Alberta Replacement Windows only and NOT patio doors or other entry doors
- The worse the old windows are the better the rebate will be. Basically what that means is if you have old aluminum windows with single pane glass (usually 4 separate sliding sections), you will get a better rebate to replace those vs replacing double glazed (aka double pane) wood windows
Please do not hesitate to contact any of our knowledgable Project Consultants to discuss your project further today.
