FortisBC dual-fuel rebates are returning.

A dual-fuel system combines an electric heat pump with a gas furnace. FortisBC’s October 6 contractor announcement outlines these upcoming offers:

Residential offer

Up to $4,000

For a qualifying dual-fuel heating system replacement.

Income-qualified offer

Up to $8,000

Income qualification and all equipment and installation requirements apply.

What needs to qualify?

  • The existing gas furnace must be at least 15 years old.
  • The replacement must have an AHRI certified reference number covering the heat pump’s outdoor and indoor units and the furnace model.
  • For Lower Mainland installations, the maximum switchover temperature must be 5°C or lower.
  • The installer must be a Technical Safety BC licensed gas contractor, in good standing with HPCN and listed for this specific rebate at installation. Mandatory HPCN dual-fuel rebate training is required.
Check installation timing before booking.

The announcement gives an October 15 program return date but states that systems must be installed after October 15, 2026. Confirm the exact eligible installation date, full terms and deadlines with FortisBC before proceeding. Do not assume an earlier installation qualifies.

Customers apply for their own FortisBC rebate. The contractor must supply the required commissioning information and old/new equipment photos through DSMAlly, plus the documentation the customer needs.

Additional income-qualified offers announced: water heater $2,500; thermostat up to $200; ventilation up to $2,400; insulation up to $2,000; windows and doors up to $7,500. Qualifying equipment, measures and full terms still need to be checked. This list is program information, not a statement that Central HVAC supplies every listed service.

Before you commit to an installation

Can I add these rebates together?

Do not add the advertised maximums together. These are different offers with their own requirements. Confirm any combination with the program administrators before relying on it in your budget.

Does a rebate apply to any furnace, boiler or tankless heater?

No. A service or equipment name alone does not establish eligibility. In particular, the announced dual-fuel offer requires a qualifying heat pump and furnace combination. Ask us to review the exact system and applicable program before you choose equipment.

What should I have ready when I call?

Your existing heating and water-heating equipment, approximate age, current fuel and the upgrade you are considering. Submit income documents only through the program’s official application process, not through our general contact form.

Is rebate approval guaranteed?

No. The program administrator determines eligibility. We will confirm equipment requirements and the applicable contractor registration before treating a proposed installation as rebate-eligible.
