Just imagine Homeowners catch energy grant break There was great news for homeowners in July when the federal government announced it was renewing its ecoEnergy Retrofit – Homes program. Until March 31, 2012, homeowners could be eligible to receive grants of up to $5,000. Natural Resources Canada, estimates that the program could help up to 250,000 Canadians improve their homes energy efficiency and generate as much as $4 billion in economic activity across the country. “Our Government is committed to easing the burden of high energy costs on Canadians and putting more money back in their pockets,” said Natural Resources Minister Joe Oliver in a news release on the day the popular initiative was reborn. “With this program, Canadians can make their homes more energy-efficient and help reduce greenhouse gas emissions in Canada.” The initiative is all about quality, which is what you will find in the 2011 Fall edition of Ideas. Every product that appears has been manufactured and created with the environment in mind. As with anything, there are rules to follow. To take full advantage of the program and save money on a multitude of offerings you
will find here, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) suggests following these steps: 1. Registration: First, register with NRCan at: http://oee.nrcan. gc.ca/register and receive a registration number. If you do not have Internet access, you can call 1 800 O-Canada (1-800-622-6232). 2. Pre-retrofit evaluation: Hire a local service organization licensed by NRCan. http://oee.nrcan.gc.ca/residential/ personal/new-home-improvement/contact-advisors. cfm?attr=4 They will send a certified energy advisor to perform a pre-retrofit energy evaluation from the attic to the foundation. If the property has already been evaluated under this program since April 2007, a new pre-retrofit evaluation is not required. 3. Retrofit with receipts: Choose, purchase and install eligible measures, and keep your receipts for three years. The more upgrades you implement, the more money you can receive, and the more energy you can save. 4. Post-retrofit evaluation: Complete your renovations and obtain a postretrofit evaluation no later than March 31, 2012. Any preparatory work you do will certainly be worth it in the end.

Windows And The Glazing Factor Glazing:
When deciding between single-, double- or triple-glazing, consider that Natural Resources Canada suggests all windows should at least be double glazed. Most windows today incorporate sealed insulated glazing.
Low emissivity (low-E) coatings:
This coating is an invisible metallic layer applied to the glazing surface that lets solar ray into the room but reflects most room temperature heat back to its source. It keeps rooms warm in the winter and keeps heat out in the summer. A low-E coating can give a single pane of glass the insulation value of a triple-glazed window unit. Low-E can also help protect carpets and fabrics from fading by blocking out UV rays.
Inert gas:
Argon and krypton inserted between panes of glass can further provide energy efficiency. These gasses reduce conduction and convection-based heat loss.

A Dialogue About Doors
For decades wood has been the door of choice, but increasingly steel is becoming a popular option. When selecting steel, the lower the gauge the higher the quality. Today’s mass market doors start at approximately 24-guage steel. Steel creates good security, can be dented and, if exposed to constant sunlight can chip or bow. Solid wood doors are easier to install, but can have poorer energy efficiency than steel, and can crack, dry or peel when exposed to rain, snow and bright sunlight. Solid pine and solid oak are currently popular options. Fibreglass has insulation qualities like steel, but is more resistant to scratches, dents, warping, and rust. It is generally more expensive than steel, but that expense can be amortized over the long life of the door. A few quick installation tips A poorly hung door will leak, that is why it can be a good idea to hire a qualified contractor. Steel and fiberglass doors, while popular cannot be cut to fit. Pre-hung doors are the easiest to install, and can be installed straight into old doorjambs, followed by insulation and trim. Spacers: Low conductivity spacers, formerly made of hollow
aluminum, but now of a variety of materials, can improve the energy performance of low-E gas filled windows by 20%. Energy Star: In Canada, Energy Star windows labeled “N” for Northern climates is recommended.

FAQ – Frequently-Asked Questions about ecoENERGY Retrofit – Homes Why is registration mandatory? NRCan (Natural Resources Canada) has allocated $400 million to the ecoENERGY Retrofit – Homes program. Once the financial limit has been reached, the program will close without notice. The registration system allows the program to monitor its uptake. By tracking program participation in this way, NRCan can ensure that all eligible homeowners who enter the program have the opportunity to apply for a grant. Can I apply for a grant multiple times? Current homeowners can only apply for a federal grant one time per property between June 6, 2011, and March 31, 2012.
Joe Oliver, Minister of Natural Resources, announces the renewed ecoENERGY Retrofit – Homes program in Toronto on July 13.
How do I apply for complementary regional programs? Many provinces, territories, municipalities and energy utilities offer complementary regional programs which provide grants, rebates and other types of financial incentives based on the results of your ecoENERGY Retrofit post-retrofit evaluation. You should verify with these regional authorities regarding their criteria and deadlines. How much of a grant will I receive and how much energy will I save if I complete the recommended retrofits? The average federal grant for a property is approximately $1,400. The maximum grant available for the current homeowner is $5,000 over the life of the program (April 2007 to March 2012) or $5,000 per dwelling unit in a multi-unit residential building (MURB).
