Should you wait until 2027?
- Don't wait if your heating has failed: see what to do when your furnace dies.
- Don't wait if a provincial program open now pays more than $2,000 for your home, unless you're likely below the median income.
- Consider waiting if your system works and you expect the $10,000 tier, but the rules may differ from the announcement. Read HRSP vs the federal rebate for Ontario.
