What is Efficiency Manitoba Windows & Doors Rebate?
With a brand new rebate, homeowners living in Manitoba are welcome to apply for support financing their home renovation projects for window and door replacement. Last year, the Efficiency Manitoba program achieved remarkable success, prompting the local government to take action.
They’ve decided to significantly boost the rebate amounts that homeowners can apply for. This change comes into effect starting June 1, 2023. Now, every window, entry or sliding glass door is eligible for a $100 rebate per unit. This is a substantial increase from the previous $50 per unit before June 1.
You can apply for up to 20 windows and/or doors (in total) rebate for a single property over the rebate’s lifetime. The total rebate amount to claim is up to $2000. This is a fantastic chance to upgrade your home while enjoying significant savings.
How to Claim up to $2000 with Manitoba Window Rebate?
Homeowners are expected to go through several steps in order to apply and participate in the windows & doors efficiency rebate program:
Step 1. Make sure you qualify
- All windows and doors you bought and installed must be ENERGY STAR certified with at least triple glazing.
- Homeowners must apply for their rebate within 90 days of the purchase and installation date.
- You have your new units installed in your residence. It means that commercial and seasonal properties can’t qualify.
- Your new windows and doors must replace current units between an unheated space (e.g. outdoors) and a heated area.
- Rebates are given based on the quantity of qualifying openings where your units were replaced. Each opening equals a single window and/or door. Therefore, installing a bay window that usually is made up of several window sections means you can apply for a rebate for 1 qualifying opening.
- You can get a rebate of up to 20 windows and/or doors (totally) for 1 property over the Windows and Doors Rebate lifetime.
Step 2. Make sure all your products qualify
Your new replacement windows and doors must be ENERGY STAR certified with at least triple glazing. To check whether you have the required products, please check out these links for certified windows and doors.

Step 4. Submit your application
The final step for homeowners is to apply for the rebate using this online application form, attaching the supporting invoice. Remember that you can apply within 90 days of the final invoice date for your new windows and/or doors.
