Is the Canada Greener Homes Loan Ending?

Budgeting In The News Rebates

If you’ve been thinking about upgrading your windows or doors and want to take advantage of the Canada Greener Homes Loan, you may want to act fast – this popular federal program could be running out of funding sooner than expected.

At Centra Install Pros, we’ve helped countless homeowners across Western Canada access rebates and loans to boost their efficiency and comfort. But with changes looming in the federal program, now’s the time to understand your options – including Centra’s exclusive Window Efficiency Plan.

Here’s everything you need to know!

How Does the Canada Greener Homes Loan Work?

The Canada Greener Homes Loan offers homeowners up to $40,000 in interest-free financing for energy-efficient home upgrades – including windows and doors. This is a great way to get a project rolling with flexible, government-backed financing before the costs of upgrades rise.

Here’s a quick breakdown:

  • Loan amount: $5,000 to $40,000
  • Interest Rate & Term: 0% for up to 10 years
  • Eligibility: Must complete pre- and post-upgrade energy evaluations
  • Qualifying upgrades: High-performance windows and doors, insulation, heat pumps, and more

This loan has been a game-changer for many homeowners looking to boost home efficiency without the upfront cost. But that may not be the case for much longer…

Is the Greener Homes Loan Running Out of Funds?

Yes – and it could happen sooner than you think.

According to recent reports, funding could dry up as early as November 2025. Funding may be extended, but at this stage, there’s no indication that it will be.

This has been a very popular program, and much like the grant portion that has already closed, it’s no surprise that take-up is exceeding expectations and funding is being drained more quickly than anticipated.

If you're planning to apply for the loan to upgrade your windows and doors, now’s the time to start the process. But if you miss out or are stuck in red tape, don’t worry – there are still great savings opportunities available in BC and Alberta.

Other Rebates and Incentives for Window and Door Upgrades

While the federal loan might be winding down, you’re not out of luck. Here are some great regional programs still going strong:

CleanBC Rebates (British Columbia)

CleanBC offers two major types of incentives for window and door upgrades:

Eligibility depends on your window type, home location, and installer credentials – and Centra Install Pros checks all the boxes.
