Maximize your savings by upgrading your commercial heating system thanks to the 2025 grants
At a time when energy performance is becoming a strategic advantage for businesses, modernizing a commercial heating system in Québec in 2025 is not only an environmentally responsible move—it’s also a smart financial opportunity. With a wide range of government and institutional grants and financial incentives available this year, property owners in Montréal, Laval, Longueuil, the North Shore and South Shore can significantly reduce their installation costs while boosting the value of their buildings.
At AirGreen, we support property managers, business owners and institutions in the upgrade of their commercial heating systems to high-efficiency solutions. Here’s everything you need to know about the available financial assistance in 2025, eligibility criteria, qualifying projects, and the best strategies to get the most out of it.
Grants available in 2025 for commercial heating systems
Overview of key programs
In 2025, several government and public utility programs are offering generous subsidies for the installation or replacement of commercial heating systems:
-
Hydro-Québec’s LogisVert Program: For multi-residential or light commercial buildings, this program offers incentives that can reach several thousands of dollars, depending on the type of system installed and its energy performance.
-
Chauffez Vert Program: Perfect for businesses wanting to eliminate fossil fuels, this program supports the replacement of oil or gas heating systems with commercial heat pumps.
-
Transition énergétique Québec (TEQ) subsidies: For projects converting to efficient HVAC systems, grants are available based on the building’s size, annual energy consumption, and the selected technology.
-
Municipal incentives: Some municipalities on the South Shore, North Shore, or Greater Montréal offer additional support, especially for projects aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Types of eligible equipment
Grants typically cover central heat pumps, high-efficiency rooftop units, variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems, and commercial multizone wall-mounted heat pumps. The equipment must:
-
Be ENERGY STAR certified or equivalent
-
Have a high seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER/HSPF)
-
Be installed by a certified contractor like AirGreen, recognized by the applicable government programs
How to make the most of these grants: our process at AirGreen
Step 1: Energy analysis and return-on-investment study
We start each project with a comprehensive technical analysis of the building—type of construction, occupancy, insulation levels, and current energy consumption. This allows us to propose a system tailored to your unique needs, and identify the relevant grants.
Step 2: Selecting the ideal equipment
In 2025, several high-performance models qualify. Here are a few examples from recent installations:
-
Bosch BOVA R-454B Central Heat Pump – North Shore, 15,000 sq. ft. of commercial space, LogisVert grant of $6,000
-
Goodman R-32 Rooftop Unit with Energy Recovery – Longueuil, office building, TEQ grant of $8,400
-
Daikin VRF System with 8 zones – Downtown Montréal, mixed-use building, combined grant of $12,000
These examples show how a strategic choice of equipment, combined with smart financing, can pay for itself in just a few years.
Step 3: File preparation and administrative support
Our experts handle all administrative steps: application preparation, energy simulations, installation proofs, and coordination with government bodies. This ensures:
-
No delays in receiving your grant
-
Full transparency on eligible amounts
-
Full compliance with all requirements and regulations
Step 4: Certified professional installation

Our tips to maximize your heating grants in 2025
-
Act early in the year: some budgets are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis
-
Document your project: energy bills, photos of the existing system, floor plans, etc.
-
Choose an experienced company: many grants require a certified installer, and a poor installation can disqualify your project
-
Opt for energy-efficient, long-lasting equipment: this increases your eligible amount and reduces long-term costs
