Who Qualifies
Do You Qualify? Income Thresholds by Household Size
The CleanBC Energy Savings Program uses household income to determine rebate tier. Eligibility is assessed per application — thresholds vary by household size.
Homeowners
You must be a homeowner at the installation address. Renters and landlords have separate program pathways.
BC Hydro or FortisBC Customers
The rebate program requires you to be served by BC Hydro or FortisBC. Most Abbotsford properties qualify.
Existing Natural Gas Heating
The highest rebate tiers are typically for homes switching away from natural gas heating to an eligible heat pump system.
Not sure if you qualify? We confirm eligibility during the free assessment — no commitment required.
What Most People Miss
What Abbotsford Homeowners Often Miss on CleanBC Projects
The panel upgrade is often part of the rebate
Many Abbotsford homes on 100A service need a service upgrade before a heat pump can be installed. That upgrade cost is eligible for CleanBC rebates — homeowners often don’t know this and budget separately.
You must use registered contractors
Only projects completed by registered CleanBC contractors qualify for rebates. Work done by an unregistered contractor won’t be eligible, even if the equipment is eligible.
The rebate is paid after, not before
CleanBC rebates are processed after installation and inspection — not upfront. Understanding the cash flow timeline matters for budgeting your Abbotsford project.
The electrical work needs its own permit
The electrical upgrade portion requires a TSBC permit and inspection, separate from any HVAC permits. We handle this automatically as part of every CleanBC electrical project.

Common Questions
CleanBC Heat Pump Rebates – Common Questions
Is CleanBC legitimate?
Yes — CleanBC is the BC provincial government’s clean energy rebate program, administered through BC Hydro and FortisBC. The Energy Savings Program is a real government incentive worth up to $21,000 for eligible households. It is not a scam and does not require any upfront payment from you.
How much can I get through the CleanBC Energy Savings Program?
Eligible households can receive up to $21,000 in total rebates (heat pump installation + electrical upgrade) at the highest income tier. Mid-tier households receive up to $15,500. Upper-income tier households receive up to $12,000. The electrical component alone is worth $1,500 to $5,000 depending on your income level.
What is the electrical contractor’s role in a CleanBC project?
The electrical contractor handles the service upgrade (if needed), heat pump electrical wiring, dedicated circuit installation, and any panel work required by the project. We must be registered with CleanBC to perform work that qualifies for rebates.
Do I need to upgrade my panel to get a heat pump?
Often yes — heat pumps require dedicated 240V circuits, and older homes on 100A service frequently need a panel upgrade before installation. The service upgrade cost is eligible for CleanBC rebates when bundled with the heat pump project.
Can I choose my own heat pump installer?
You need to use a registered CleanBC contractor for both the HVAC and electrical portions of the project. We work with Full Service Heating & Cooling as our HVAC partner — they handle the heat pump portion while we handle all the electrical.
How long does a CleanBC project take from start to finish?
The electrical assessment and any panel upgrade work can typically be scheduled within 2–4 weeks. The full project timeline including HVAC installation and rebate processing runs 6–12 weeks from initial assessment to complete.
Is Huntley Electrical registered with CleanBC?
Yes — Huntley Electrical is a registered CleanBC electrical contractor. We are licensed with Technical Safety BC (licence #LEL0210649) and registered to perform electrical work qualifying for CleanBC Energy Savings Program rebates in the Fraser Valley, including Abbotsford.
What is the income threshold to qualify for CleanBC rebates?
The program is means-tested by household income and size. The highest rebate tier targets lower-income households; mid and upper tiers apply progressively higher income levels. Exact thresholds are updated annually by the province — we can confirm current thresholds during your free assessment.
