Save $1,000–$3,000 on Your New Boiler
Combi Boiler Rebates Vancouver 2026
In 2026, Vancouver homeowners can access up to $3,000 in combined rebates for installing a high-efficiency combi boiler. The two main programs — FortisBC rebates and CleanBC Better Homes incentives — can significantly reduce your installation cost. But rebates aren't automatic: you need the right equipment, a licensed installer, and sometimes pre-approval before work begins.
This guide covers everything you need to know: which rebates apply to you, how to qualify, how to apply, and how we handle the paperwork so you don't have to.

This is not a DIY repair
Combi boilers are gas-fired appliances regulated under the BC Safety Standards Act. Opening the unit, touching the gas valve, or working on the flue without a valid BC gas-fitter licence is both unsafe and illegal. Diagnosing the fault is helpful — fixing it should always be left to a certified technician.
