Get A Heat Pump Now – and Without the Sticker Shock!
Hinse Brothers Mechanical utilizes the Clean Energy Improvement Program from the City of Edmonton, and the Federal Greener Homes Program to help you get a new heat pump now, with less strain on your pocketbook. Since heat pumps are extremely energy efficient — because they move heat into, or out of your home, instead of making the cooler air warmer, a typical heat pump is roughly 3-5 times more energy efficient than even the most modern gas furnace!
The Clean Energy Improvement Program and Greener Homes Program
What is CEIP?
The City of Edmonton will finance up to $50,000 in energy and comfort upgrades, like heat pumps for homes. You repay the cost at a fixed, low interest rate over as many as 20 years, right on your property-tax bill. If you sell, the balance simply stays with the home.
The Clean Energy Improvement Program lets you add comfort-boosting, energy-slashing upgrades—think heat pumps, high-efficiency furnaces, insulation, solar panels—without paying a dime up front. The City of Edmonton covers up to $50,000 of the project and folds the cost into your property-tax bill at a fixed, low interest rate that can stretch up to 20 years, making the monthly bite small—often close to the dollars you’ll save on utilities. Because the repayment stays with the house, not the homeowner, you can sell at any time and pass the balance (along with the higher resale value and lower operating costs) to the next owner.
Add in federal rebates that can stack on top, and CEIP becomes one of the few home investments that’s nearly cash-flow neutral from day one while shrinking your carbon footprint for good.
About The CEIP
ALberta’s Clean Energy Improvement Program (CEIP) specifically lists heat pumps as an upgrade eligible for financing through its low-interest, pay-on-your property-tax arrangement.
About The Greener Homes Initiative
Federally, the Canada Greener Homes Initiative covers up to $10,000 up front, or $40,000 in financing to help homeowners upgrade to these ultra-efficient systems, because they cut utility bills and greenhouse-gas emissions in one move.
Why Work With Hinse Brothers Mechanical?
Zero up-front cash
We file every CEIP form and invoice so you start paying only when the upgrade shows up on your next tax bill.
Maximum savings
Our Good–Better–Best packages combine three or more eligible upgrades — for example a cold-climate heat pump, a high efficiency furnace, and a tankless water heater — which is the minimum the City requires for financing.
One-stop service
As a CEIP-Qualified Contractor, we manage permits, scheduling, and the post-project EnerGuide audit so you do not lift a finger.
Cash-flow friendly
We present a simple comparison: “Estimated tax payment $95 per month, projected energy savings $80, net $15.” Almost break-even from day one.
Stackable incentives
We layer any available federal Greener Homes loan or manufacturer rebates to trim the total even more.
How The CEIP Program Works Through Us
- Quick Check – We confirm your property meets basic CEIP rules and schedule the required EnerGuide evaluation.
- Custom Plan – Using the EnerGuide report, we design an upgrade bundle that tackles comfort, carbon, and utility costs in one sweep.
- Paperwork Done for You – We upload the project application, insurance proof, and quotes to the CEIP portal and secure City approval.
- Agreements Signed – You sign the City’s Clean Energy Improvement Agreement and a project agreement that locks in the interest rate and repayment term.
- Installation – Our certified crews handle every install, from heat pumps to insulation. All permits are pulled and inspected.
- City Pays Us Directly – Once we file the Upgrade Completion form, the City releases funds to us. You still have not spent a cent.
- Post-Project Audit – A second EnerGuide visit verifies energy savings and locks in any additional rebates.
- Easy Repayment – The first CEIP line appears on your June property-tax statement. Monthly payments are spread over the rest of the year and adjust the following January.

Making Use Of The Canadian Greener Homes Loan
The Canada Greener Homes Loan is a federal, interest-free financing program that helps homeowners pay for deep energy-efficiency upgrades without draining their savings. After a required pre-retrofit EnerGuide evaluation pinpoints the best improvements—such as cold-climate heat pumps, high-performance windows, extra insulation, or solar panels—eligible owners can borrow $5,000 to $40,000 and repay it in equal monthly instalments over up to 10 years at 0 % interest. Funds are deposited directly into the homeowner’s bank account, work must be completed by qualified contractors, and a post-retrofit audit confirms the savings. Because payments are fixed and fee-free, the loan often lets families offset most—or all—of the monthly cost with lower utility bills while boosting comfort, property value, and carbon savings.
Upgrade Now, Pay Later—With Canada’s 0 % Greener Homes Loan
At Hinse Brothers Mechanical, we turn big-ticket comfort upgrades into easy-on-the-wallet monthly payments—thanks to the federal Canada Greener Homes Loan:
- Up to $40,000 at 0 % interest for 10 years. Ottawa wires the money straight to your bank account so you can install a cold-climate heat pump, high-efficiency water heater, smart thermostat and more—then you repay in equal, interest-free installments.
- Must follow an EnerGuide roadmap. A certified energy advisor pinpoints which retrofits cut the most carbon; only those items qualify, so your dollars go where they have the biggest impact.
- Works even after the Greener Homes Grant is closed. The loan fund was topped up in mid-2024, so money is still available while grant spots are gone.

We’ll confirm you’re the homeowner, that it’s your primary residence, and no work has started—all in a quick 15-minute call.
