For many homeowners in the Oceanside and Central Island region, the cost of upgrading an older heating system is the biggest barrier. The CleanBC Income Qualified Program is designed to remove that barrier by providing higher levels of financial support to eligible households.
In some cases, including retired homeowners on fixed incomes in communities like Parksville, Qualicum Beach, Nanoose Bay, and surrounding areas, we have seen this program cover the entire cost of a heat pump system. Funding amounts vary by household, but the support available can be substantial.
The CleanBC Income Qualified Program is based on household income, home type, and the heating system currently in place. If you qualify, CleanBC and participating utility partners provide enhanced rebates that reduce or eliminate upfront installation costs.
What makes the process smoother is working with a contractor who understands both the technical and program requirements. Friesens specializes in heat pump installations across the Oceanside and Central Vancouver Island region and is certified to participate in the CleanBC Income Qualified Program.
This means your eligibility, application steps, system design, and installation are handled by a team that works within the program every day. From confirming requirements to completing an installation that meets all program standards, our goal is to make the experience clear, efficient, and stress free for homeowners.
Step 1 - Confirm household income eligibility and home location within the Central Island service area
Step 2 Complete a home assessment with a certified local contractor familiar with CleanBC program requirements
Step 3 Apply available CleanBC funding toward the cost of a qualifying heat pump system
Step 4 Installation is completed by Friesens, ensuring all program, safety, and performance standards are met
Step 5 Ensure all paperwork, testing and submissions are done with proper paperwork.

Mike was great to deal with and dealt with any setbacks concerning the install very professionally and quickly. Even through the challenging procurement market our equipment was sourced and delivered on schedule. The final product works great.
