NoDrafts is a Home Energy Evaluation company providing evaluations of home energy usage and homeowners access to the Federal and Provincial rebates program. All of our Advisors are Certified by Natural Resources Canada.

The steps to be eligible for the Rebates are described below. The initial audit must be completed before the work is started.
A Home Energy Evaluation is a great start to any renovations around the house. Existing problems may be corrected for little to no increase in the cost of the project but may be eligible for tax-free rebates.
1- Schedule your Home Energy Audit. The Government of Ontario will pay half of your pre-retrofit audit, up to $150.
2- During your Home Energy Audit, we will find your home’s energy leaks and show what you can do to plug them. We will provide you with your personalized Energy Efficiency Evaluation Report and a plan that can reduce your energy bills. Your report includes your home’s EnerGuide rating showing how energy efficient your home is and how efficient it could be with energy improvements.
3- Need a new furnace or water heater? Caulking around your windows and doors? Make some or all the upgrades suggested in your Energy Efficiency Report to improve your home’s energy efficiency. Your report will show you the most important changes to maximize your energy savings.
Select your improvements and implement the recommended energy upgrades, leaving time to ensure your post-retrofit evaluation is completed within 18 months or before March 31, 2011.
4- After completing the work, book your post-retrofit audit. We will perform your audit and provide you with your home’s new EnerGuide rating that shows how much you have improved your home’s energy efficiency. A good EnerGuide rating can also increase the value of your home.
