Home Energy Retrofits in Calgary
Calgary's weather swings — from sudden chinooks to deep cold snaps — put real strain on furnaces, insulation and windows. HES helps Calgary homeowners access approved cost-neutral retrofit programmes that reduce energy use, with no money required upfront.
About this programme
About this programme in Calgary
HES works with homeowners across Calgary and the surrounding area to figure out whether their home is a fit for an approved retrofit programme. We coordinate qualification end to end. HES is not a contractor — all installations in Calgary are completed by approved programme contractors.
If you'd like the full overview of how the broader programme works, our How It Works section walks through every step, and our FAQ answers the most common questions from homeowners.
Common upgrades
Common upgrades in Calgary homes
Programmes vary, and not every home receives every upgrade. These are the retrofits we most often see help Calgary homeowners lower their energy costs.
Insulation
Calgary's chinook-driven temperature swings make attic and wall insulation one of the highest-impact upgrades.
Heat Pumps
Modern cold-climate heat pumps handle Calgary's winter lows while cutting summer cooling costs.
High-Efficiency Heating
Modern furnaces and boilers turn far more of their fuel into usable heat — useful in Calgary's climate.
Smart Thermostats
Smart thermostats fine-tune when and how your Calgary home is heated and cooled, without changing your habits.
Hot Water Systems
Efficient hot water systems trim a meaningful share of monthly energy use for most Calgary households.

Who this is for
Who this is for in Calgary
Most of the Calgary homeowners we help own older detached homes, deal with rising gas bills, and would rather not finance major upgrades themselves. If that sounds familiar, it's worth checking your eligibility — not every Calgary home will qualify, and we'll be honest about it.
There's no cost to find out, and no obligation either way. If a programme isn't a fit, we'll tell you plainly.
