Oil, gas and propane conversions in Courtenay
Your household income sets your CleanBC rebate tier.
Courtenay Heat Pumps converts oil, gas and propane heating to heat pumps from Comox through Cumberland to Black Creek. We will be straight with you about the rebate: switching off a fossil fuel sits at Level 3 of the income-qualified Energy Savings Program, so if your household is over the income threshold you get $0 toward the conversion. We check where you land before you spend anything, and we make the case on running cost and summer cooling rather than on the rebate alone.
If you meet the income test, your conversion qualifies at the program's Level 3 tier — the tier for households switching off gas, propane or oil. Fossil-fuel conversions land in Level 3, and we check all your rebate details before we give you a quote.
Who actually qualifies
Income sets the tier, and above the top threshold there is no conversion rebate at all. When you replace gas, propane, or oil, you land in Level 3. We check the exact rebate amounts for you before we quote. Replacing an existing heat pump, or adding a head to one, is not eligible under either CleanBC program.
What changes with each fuel
Whether you replace oil, gas, or propane, you land in Level 3. Your household income decides where you sit in the program. If our load calculation shows you need a panel upgrade, the Energy Savings Program offers an add-on to help with that cost.
The order the paperwork has to happen in
We walk you through all the necessary rebate steps before we install your new heat pump. Energy Savings Program eligibility codes stay valid for 3 months once issued. We make sure all program steps are handled properly so your rebate stays valid.
The limits that disqualify a house
The CleanBC Energy Savings Program covers homeowners in ground-oriented homes. Ground-oriented homes qualify for this program, but large multi-unit condo buildings do not. We check all of this for you before you spend anything.
What's included
Oil furnace to heat pump conversion
We remove your old oil system, which puts you in the same Level 3 rebate tier as a gas conversion.
Propane and natural gas conversion
We take out your gas or propane furnace. What you get back is set by your income tier.
Income-qualified rebate paperwork
We confirm your income level first, because it decides whether you have a rebate at all.
The installation process
- 1. Eligibility verified — you will need an active eligibility code in hand before installation starts.
- 2. Changeover — we take the old equipment out and put the heat pump in, and only do electrical work where the load calculation said you needed it.
People also ask
Is it worth converting from natural gas?
The conversion rebate is the same income-qualified Level 3 tier whatever fossil fuel is coming out, and it disappears entirely above the income threshold. We usually make the case on operating cost and on summer cooling, not on the rebate by itself.
What happens to the old oil tank?
Tank removal is a separate job for a specialist, and we arrange it around your changeover rather than during it.
What if the household is over the income threshold?
Then you get no Energy Savings Program conversion rebate at all — those amounts are income-qualified only.
