How Laval Oil Heating Replacement Subsidy works
OpenThe City of Laval offers a subsidy to owners who replace their main oil-fired heating system, including a dual-energy system that uses oil, with one powered only by electricity or renewable energy, such as a heat pump, electric furnace or geothermal system. Converting to natural gas or propane does not qualify.

- The oil or oil-electric dual-energy system was the main heating (forced air or hot water) for at least one dwelling before the work
