In all, 12 current programs: Home Renovation Savings Program, Energy Affordability Program and 9 more local programs, plus a federal program.

3 of them only pay when the work is done by an approved contractor or a participating contractor, so homeowners go looking for an installer who already qualifies.

How our insulation leads work

Homeowners in Ontario find us by searching for rebates. When they ask for quotes, we send the request to installers who serve their postal area. Where a program only pays through a listed contractor, the lead only goes to partners we've checked on that program's official list.

See the page they read: Ontario insulation rebates.

  • Consent on every lead

    The homeowner ticked an unticked box agreeing to hear from up to 3 companies. You get the exact wording, its version and the time.

  • Shared, first look or exclusive

    A shared lead goes to at most 3 companies. A first look is yours alone for 4 working hours before it may go to others. An exclusive lead goes to you alone. You choose.

  • What’s in it

    Name, email, postal code, the upgrade, timeline and whether they own the home; phone when given (a lead without a phone number is 50% of the price). Finder leads add heating fuel, home type and the programs that apply.

  • Credits

    Wrong contact details, duplicates and out-of-area requests are credited if you report them within 72 hours.

  • The paperwork, in order

    9 Ontario programs need an energy assessment. Our pages tell homeowners which step comes first.

Insulation leads in Ontario: questions

For some programs, yes. In our Ontario data, 3 programs ask for an approved contractor or a participating contractor: HRSP, HWP and RetrofitWR. A lead that depends on one of these programs only goes to partners we've checked on its official list, and you also need the licences and insurance the work requires.

At founding rates, $20 for a shared lead (sent to up to 3 contractors), $30 for a first look (yours alone for 4 working hours) and $40 exclusive, in Canadian dollars before tax. Founding partners sign by December 31, 2026 (up to 3 per trade in each metro), get their first qualified lead free, keep their rates for 12 months and are invoiced weekly for the first 60 days. Bad contact details are credited if you report them within 72 hours.

We don’t publish a number we haven’t measured. RebateHub is new, so we tell partners the real request count for their area before they prepay anything. Founding partners choose their postal areas first.

For some programs. 9 current Ontario programs need an energy assessment, for example EAP, HWP and BHOLP. Our pages tell homeowners which step comes first, so the ones who ask for quotes have usually seen the paperwork.
