SaskEnergy is rolling out a new program aimed at helping low-income homeowners cut down on heating costs.
The Crown corporation has launched the Heating Affordability Program (HAP), which will provide eligible income-qualified households with a free high-efficiency furnace to replace outdated low-efficiency models.
Mark Guillet, SaskEnergy’s president and CEO, said the initiative is designed to ease financial pressure while improving energy use.
“At SaskEnergy, we are committed to helping our customers’ energy dollars go further,” Guillet said. “HAP is a program that helps customers save money and improve energy efficiency while they keep their homes warm during the colder months.”
The goal is to replace furnaces for up to 50 households ahead of the heating season. SaskEnergy estimates
