For Single Family Home owners who are only interested in upgrading their central heating system, it is possible to access an incentive without undertaking a Pre-Upgrade Assessment. Such applicants are still considered to be program participants and as such, the equipment installed must meet the same eligibility standards.
Paperwork detailing the equipment installed as well as the equipment being replaced must be completed by the Registered Heating Contractor. That confirmation along with a completed application form must then be submitted by the building owner to qualify for an incentive.
Efficiency NB strongly encourages program participants to undertake the Pre-Upgrade assessment process to determine what other upgrades could be considered. Participation in the Direct Entry option does not preclude a subsequent application to the Residential Energy Efficiency Program for incentives relating to further upgrades, if the appropriate assessment has been completed.
Installation of Geothermal System, where there was none, before continues to require a Residential Energy Assessment. Replacement of a Geothermal system is eligible for Direct Entry. This method is not available to apartment buildings.
