Should I Apply for the Greener Home Grant?
Posted On: March 31, 2022
With climate change being the talk of the news, everyone wonders what they can do to help? Some people purchase hybrid vehicles, take public transportation, ride bikes, or walk where they can.
But there is another thing you can do to help, turn your home into a greener home.
What is a green home?
A green home, not to be confused with a greenhouse, is a residential home or dwelling that uses materials and utilities to reduce its carbon footprint.
These ways include:
- Using reclaimed and sustainable materials
- Low flow sinks and toilets
- Energy-efficient appliances, heating, and cooling systems, and lights
- Smart thermostats
- Double pan windows
- Solar panels
- Low VOC paints and carpets
- Update insulation, so it's airtight
You can also help by using green compost bins and recycle bins. Green homes are not only suitable for the environment, but they also benefit those who live in them.
Greener homes have less indoor air pollution, which means your family can breathe easier. They also help reduce the costs of utilities, saving you money that you can use for other investments.
You can apply for the Greener Home Grant Program if you decide to make your home greener. This grant can help offset some of the costs. Only homes older than six months old can qualify for the Greener Home Grant.
The types of homes that qualify are:
- Single and Semi-detached houses
- Rowhouses
- Townhomes
- Permanent mobile homes
- Permanently moored floating homes
- Small multi-unit residential buildings, three stories or less, anything more will not qualify.
You must have your home evaluated before applying for the grant. If you are a new homeowner who had an evaluation done by the previous owner, you will need another assessment. Once you have your home evaluated, you can receive a reimbursement for up to $600.
Once you have qualified for the grant, you can receive a $5,000 reimbursement. This reimbursement includes the cost to replace Air and Cold Climate Heat Pumps.

It was a refreshing experience interacting with the Twintech team. From Bob, the sales consultant, who articulated in layman's terms all the options available and reasons for making any selection. This was done without the prevailing pressure tactics so commonplace today.
Before proceeding Mitch, the technician, at our request conducted a service check on our 30 yr old furnace. His report was positive indicating no urgency to replace it. Again no pressure tactics.
Three days after first meeting with Bob, the installation team of Greg and
Spencer completed the installation within the planned time frame.
A very professional, courteous and transparent team which delivered on their promise. I highly recommend Twintech.

I had a really great experience with these guys. The salesman Bob was clearly very knowledgeable about everything to do with heating and cooling a home, spent a lot of time with us going over the details of the job, never rushed us and came back after the install to make sure we were happy. The installation crew was excellent, they covered the floors all the way from outside down to the basement furnace room, kept the place clean, got the work done on time and were very friendly. Ive got 15 years in the contracting/ construction industry and these guys are one of the most professional companys Ive dealt with. Great company!

My old water heater quit on me. I called TwinTech. In less than 4 days, I had my new water heater installed and the old one taken away. The whole process was quick, easy, pleasant, and well done. This is the third time I've dealt with TwinTech and I've been satisfied each time.
