Get Up to $23,275 in HVAC Rebates in Montreal’s West Island (2025 Guide)

Are you a homeowner in Montreal’s West Island looking to upgrade your heating system? You could be eligible for up to $23,275 in government rebates through Quebec’s 2025 energy transition program. This initiative supports homeowners switching from oil or gas to clean electric systems like ETS (Electric Thermal Storage) and central heat pumps.

At Les Mécanique, we simplify the process: handle the rebate paperwork, install the new system, and help you maximize your savings.

🔎 Why Quebec Offers HVAC Rebates

Quebec is committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting clean energy. Residential heating accounts for a large portion of fossil fuel use, especially from older oil and gas furnaces. To encourage cleaner solutions, the government offers financial incentives.

These programs reward homeowners for replacing outdated systems with more efficient electric options that reduce environmental impact and strain on the electrical grid during peak hours.

 

💸 How Much Can You Get?

There are two major rebate tiers for West Island homeowners:

✅ Up to $23,275

For replacing your fossil-fuel heating system (oil/gas furnace or boiler) with a combination of:

  • ETS heating system
  • Central heat pump (ENERGY STAR-certified)

This is the most powerful, cleanest setup available—and it qualifies for the maximum incentive.

✅ Up to $15,000

For replacing your central heating with a standalone ETS system or other qualifying renewable energy solution.

✅ Many other rebates

There are many other rebates if you do not qualify for the two above. Give us a call to explore your options: 514-333-6968

🌡️ What Is an ETS Heating System?

An Electric Thermal Storage (ETS) system stores heat during off-peak electricity hours (typically overnight), then distributes that heat during the day. It helps lower your heating bill by using low-cost electricity and allows you to shift energy usage away from peak periods.

Benefits of ETS:

  • Save money with Hydro-Québec’s dual-energy or off-peak rates
  • Provides steady, even heat without noise or bad 
  • Low maintenance and long lifespan
  • Eligible for both provincial and federal incentives

🌬️ What Is a Central Heat Pump?

A central heat pump is an all-in-one heating and cooling system that uses electricity to transfer heat. In winter, it pulls heat from outside into your home. In summer, it reverses and cools your space.

Cold-climate heat pumps, especially ENERGY STAR-certified models, work even in -25°C Montreal winters.

Benefits of heat pumps:

  • Efficient year-round climate control
  • Clean and quiet operation
  • Greatly reduce your reliance on baseboards or fossil fuels
  • High rebate eligibility
