Heating Appliances

Efficient furnaces, boilers and hot-water tanks are important to our comfort in the Northwest Territories. Is your heating source as efficient as it can be? Consider installing an emission neutral wood stove or pellet stove or replacing your furnace with a highly efficient model. Add an efficient water heater and you’ll not only be cozy and warm all winter long, you’ll also pocket the rebate rewards. Plus, you’ll be saving energy and money for many years to come.
