The following Terms and Conditions establish the eligibility requirements and related terms and conditions for the EnerGuide Home Evaluation Incentive Program (Program).
- The Program will be in effect from January 1 to December 31, 2024 (Term), or until a time in which Program funds are fully subscribed.
- Clients are eligible for one (1) rebate per residential address.
- The deadline for Energy Advisors to submit invoices is noon on January 9, 2025.
- The Program is designed to assist with the cost of a pre-evaluation for existing homes. An existing home is any home built more than six (6) months prior to installations, replacements, and/or upgrades.
- Clients are responsible for all taxes and any additional amounts above the maximum rebate amount and must pay the Energy Advisor directly. If Program funds have been fully exhausted, clients are responsible for the full cost of the pre-evaluation.
- To qualify for a rebate under the Program:
- An initial EnerGuide Home Evaluation (pre-evaluation) must be completed by a certified energy advisor (Eligible Project); and
- The pre-evaluation must be completed between January 1, 2020 and December 31, 2024, as evidenced by the date on the corresponding EnerGuide label and report.
If your home had an EnerGuide evaluation by a previous owner, or your evaluation was conducted before January 1, 2020, you are eligible for a new pre-evaluation.
- To be eligible for a rebate under the Program:
- Clients must either receive a City of Medicine Hat residential Electric and/or Natural Gas utility statement for the Project address in their name or, for rental properties, be named as the property owner on the utility account; and
- Eligible Projects must be completed by the property owner as confirmed through the City of Medicine Hat tax system.
Residential customers living in a condo are not eligible for the Program if utilities are paid for through condo fees or by the condo association since the condo building itself would then be considered a commercial enterprise.
- Funds will not be reserved for this Program.
- Rebates are paid directly to the energy advisor.
- The Client is solely responsible for:
- researching and ensuring they qualify under applicable eligibility criteria as outlined on the HAT Smart website; and
- any direct or indirect taxes, duties, levies, fees, or like charges incurred as a result of participation in the Program.
- The Client acknowledges and agrees that, as a result of projects completed as recommended by your energy advisor in their report, HAT Smart:
- is not responsible for, and accepts no liability nor makes any representations with respect to estimated or possible energy savings;
- is not responsible for, nor liable for, the selection, purchase, installation, and ownership/maintenance of the products included in the submitted rebate application; and
- makes no representation or warranty, whether expressed, implied, direct or indirect, with respect to the products, services or other measures that the client has purchased.
- The Client further agrees that:
- the Eligible Project has been completed in the specified dwelling through a service provider;
- that combined incentives from government programs shall not exceed 100% of Eligible Project costs;
- any other rebate(s), discount(s) and/or incentive(s) offered and/or provided by any government agency, institution, manufacturer, distributor, dealer and/or installer are separate and distinct from the Program and HAT Smart shall not be responsible for the administration or payment of the same nor be responsible for the erroneous submission of other rebate(s), discount(s) and/or incentive(s) to HAT Smart.
- In submitting this application, the Client consents:
- to the disclosure of personal information, as well as the rebate amount awarded to the Client, to HAT Smart, its contractors, employees, partners and others who have a need to know; and
- to the collection, use, disclosure and retention of such information for five years, following which such information will be destroyed or made anonymous.
- HAT Smart reserves the right to change or terminate the Program at any time without notice or explanation.
