Yes, it is called the Rénoclimat energy-saving renovation program for homes.

This program offers you many advantages, such as an energy efficiency evaluation, as well as advice and recommendations concerning the work to carry out to improve the energy performance of your house.
 
What is more, you can benefit from financial assistance that can help you cover the additional cost of the work serving to reduce your energy consumption!
 
Before you consider renovating your home, please consult the Rénoclimat section or call us toll free at: 1-866-266-0008.

Within the scope of the Novoclimat program for the construction of energy efficient multiple-unit buildings and new homes, the builders, ventilation experts, pre-fabricated home manufacturers and professionals participating in the program must follow training and receive certification from the ministère des Ressources naturelles et de la Faune.

Consequently, you can consult the list of certified businesses and professionals on our Web site under the section Novoclimat-certified builders and professionals.  
 
However, it is important to keep in mind that the Department does not recommend the services of a specific contractor or professional.

The Department is required to produce a RL-27 slip “Government payments” for recipients who are granted financial assistance under its programs, whether the recipient is an individual, a corporation or a partnership.

If you are an individual, you are generally not required to include the amount or attach the slip to your income tax return.

Should you require additional information regarding the tax treatment of RL-27 slips, please contact Revenu Québec directly.
