Six practical pathways for Ontario homes.
Choose the situation closest to your home. We will confirm whether a central ducted, ductless, multi-zone or hybrid system is the practical fit.
Dual-Fuel Upgrade
Dual-Fuel Upgrade
Add a central heat pump to your existing gas furnace for efficient heating and cooling. This dual-fuel heat pump system uses the furnace as backup heating when required.
Typical solution: Central heat pump + matched indoor coil + existing or new furnace.
Whole-Home Multi-Zone
Whole-Home Multi-Zone
For homes without usable ductwork or where room-by-room control matters. Multiple indoor zones connect to one or more outdoor systems.
A whole-home multi-zone ductless heat pump provides individual temperature control without requiring central ductwork.
Typical solution: Multi-zone ductless or a planned combination of single-zone systems.
Electric & Propane Homes
Electric & Propane Homes
For homes heated by electric baseboards, an electric furnace or propane that are moving toward heat-pump primary heating.
Cold-climate heat pump options for electrically heated and propane-heated homes, including central air-handler and ductless systems.
Typical solution: Heat pump + air handler, or a whole-home ductless layout with an appropriate backup plan.
Garage & Workshop
Garage & Workshop
Add independent heating and cooling to a detached or attached garage, workshop or converted living area without extending the main duct system.
A garage heat pump provides efficient heating and cooling for workshops, detached garages and converted living spaces.
Typical solution: Single-zone ductless heat pump sized for the space and envelope.
Basement Comfort
Basement Comfort
Improve comfort in a finished basement, rental suite or area the central system does not serve evenly.
A basement heat pump or ductless mini-split can improve comfort in finished basements and secondary living areas.
Typical solution: Targeted ductless system or a central airflow and zoning review.
Supplemental Heating & Cooling
Supplemental Heating & Cooling
Address a sunroom, addition, upper floor or problem room that stays too hot or cold while the rest of the home is comfortable.
Add supplemental heating and cooling to sunrooms, additions, upper floors and other areas not adequately served by the existing HVAC system.
Typical solution: Single-zone heat pump or a small multi-zone system.
A rebate may reduce the cost - if the system and application qualify.
Current Home Renovation Savings incentives for an owned cold-climate air-source heat pump depend on the home’s existing primary heating source and the eligible system’s rated heating capacity.

Primary heating:
electricity or propane
Incentive amounts are based on current program information and may change. Eligibility depends on the property, existing heating source, approved equipment combination, rated capacity, installation and program approval. PWH can support equipment verification and application documentation; final approval is made by the program administrator.
