From initial energy audit through equipment installation and rebate claim, we manage the entire process. You get turnkey savings with verified results.
SaveON Program
Ontario's utility incentive program for commercial and multi-residential buildings.
The SaveON program provides substantial rebates for energy-efficient equipment upgrades. Eligible projects span the full range of building systems—HVAC, lighting, controls, and more.
Eligible equipment includes:
- Variable Frequency Drives
- Premium efficiency motors
- High-efficiency chillers
- Condensing boilers
- Building automation upgrades
- LED lighting retrofits
- Heat recovery systems
- Pump and fan upgrades
How SaveON Works
Submit project details and estimated savings for approval before starting work.
Complete the approved scope of work with required documentation.
Demonstrate energy savings through metering or deemed savings calculations.
Receive rebate check after project completion and verification.
Smardt Oil-Free Chillers
~30% energy savings + $75,000-$150,000+ in government rebates
Smardt's revolutionary oil-free centrifugal chillers use magnetic bearing compressors—no oil, no mechanical friction, no lubrication system to maintain. The result is exceptional part-load efficiency and dramatically lower operating costs.
Energy Performance
- 30% energy savings vs. conventional
- Exceptional part-load efficiency
- Variable speed operation
- No oil means no heat loss to oil
Rebate Potential
- $75,000-$150,000+ available
- Based on capacity and efficiency
- Significantly reduces payback
- We handle all applications
D-Scale Systems
Chemical-free scale prevention with government rebates
D-Scale uses electronic pulse technology to prevent and remove scale buildup in cooling towers, heat exchangers, and piping systems—without chemicals. Better heat transfer means better efficiency.
Benefits:
- Improved efficiency: Scale-free heat exchangers transfer heat better, reducing chiller energy consumption.
- Reduced maintenance: No chemical treatment to manage, no descaling services needed.
- Water savings: Reduced blowdown requirements save water and sewer costs.
- Environmental: No chemical discharge to sewers, no handling of hazardous materials.
- Government rebates: Qualifies for water conservation and energy efficiency incentives.
We provide complete D-Scale installations including equipment supply, installation, and rebate applications.
