Apply for a rebate on your home-heating system

It can be difficult to choose a heating system. Each system has different:

• fuel costs;
• efficiencies; and
• fuel-storage requirements.

  
If you change your heating system, you may have to:

• replace an oil tank;
• rent propane tanks;
• cut and store firewood; or
• upgrade your electrical panel, or transmission line.
