New Brunswick offers various types of financial assistance programs to encourage its citizens to make their homes more energy-efficient. Here are the services you can benefit from with an energy assessment by Expertbâtiment.
Enhanced energy efficiency program
Visit Energy-Efficient Retrofit Program targets homes in need of energy efficiency improvements. These upgrades will help New Brunswick homeowners with a combined annual household income of less than $70,000 reduce their energy consumption and costs.
Eligible homeowners can benefit from one or more recommended upgrades, such as adding insulation in the basement, crawl space, exposed floor, attic and exterior walls, and upgrading HVAC systems for air quality or moisture problems; all of which help reduce energy consumption and improve home comfort. Homes may be eligible for some or all of the potential improvements, at no cost to the homeowner.
