Saskatchewan EnerGuide for Houses (SEGH)
The Government of Saskatchewan has extended and enhanced the Saskatchewan EnerGuide for Houses retrofit
grant program until March 31, 2011. Individuals who qualify under this new program also qualify for the
ecoENERGY Retrofit initiative
introduced by the federal government on April 1, 2007.
Under the extended Saskatchewan EnerGuide for Houses program, you are eligible to receive a provincial grant of up to
$5,000 on energy efficient upgrades you make to your home. To qualify, you must complete an EnerGuide for Houses pre-retrofit
evaluation (“D” audit), your retrofits, and a post-retrofit evaluation (“E” audit). Your pre-retrofit evaluation will provide
you with a list of recommendations for your home and applicable grant values.
The Province continues to offer grants to any homeowner who completes their pre-retrofit evaluation and then completes their
renovations and post-retrofit within 18 months of the pre-retrofit evaluation.
The Saskatchewan EnerGuide for Houses
list of eligible improvements
has been expanded. In addition to heating and ventilation
system upgrades, insulation, air sealing and draft proofing that were covered under the previous program, new recommendations
include: upgrading air conditioning, water heating systems, such as
tankless
(instantaneous) water heaters,
condensing water heaters,
solar hot water systems, and
drain water heat recovery (DWHR) systems; as well as water conservation recommendations such as
low flow or dual flush toilets.
Individuals who previously received a grant under the EnerGuide for Houses program are eligible to access the program for a
second round of eligible improvements. However, homeowners who receive a grant under the extended Saskatchewan EnerGuide for
Houses program can only access the grant one time. Contact an EnerGuide for Houses Service
Organization for more information and
to ensure you meet program guidelines.
Small businesses or organizations that use residential sized equipment in a structure similar to a residential dwelling are
eligible under the Saskatchewan EnerGuide for Houses program.
