Saskatchewan EnerGuide for Houses (SEGH)

Thinking of ways to make your home more energy efficient? The Saskatchewan EnerGuide for Houses program is here to help! The program was developed in cooperation with the Government of Canada to help homeowners make choices that improve the comfort and energy efficiency of their home. The program is available until March 31, 2011.

Experience the Benefits:

  • Reduce your energy bills
  • Peace of mind
  • Understanding of your options
  • Proof of upgrades
  • Help cover a portion of your retrofit expenses
  • Help our environment
  • Find out where your energy dollars go
  • Learn how your appliances use energy

How Do I Apply?

  1. Contact a licensed SEGH service organization to book a
    pre-retrofit evaluation ("D" audit). There is a cost for the evaluation, please discuss the evaluation costs with the service organization including mileage if applicable. The provincial government subsidizes half of the cost of the pre and post evaluation.

  2. The service organization will come to your house and complete the evaluation. The evaluation will tell you how certain upgrades or new equipment will reduce your energy and/or water consumption saving you money over the long term. The evaluation also provides information on how much of a grant you will be eligible to receive for each recommended improvement you make.

  3. You have until March 31, 2011, to complete the recommended improvements and the post-retrofit evaluation. You can complete any or all options outlined in the recommendations.

  4. A post-retrofit evaluation ("E" audit) must be completed to qualify for a grant. Book an evaluation with the same SEGH service organization that completed your initial evaluation prior to the March 31, 2011 deadline. Make sure to call your Service Organization early to book your post-retrofit evaluation to ensure that they can schedule your appointment prior to March 31, 2011.

  5. The service organization will submit the file to Natural Resources Canada who calculates the grant amount and then sends this information to SaskEnergy. You don't need to do anything else - the grant will be mailed to you within 90 days of your post-retrofit evaluation from SaskEnergy, who is administering the program on behalf of the Government of Saskatchewan.
