"I cannot say enough great things about this company"
I cannot say enough great things about this company. The men who came to install her mini split were absolutely wonderful. Polite, professional and kind I would recommend their service to anyone. I hope anyone who is looking to have work done in their home has the pleasure to work with this amazing team.

"They were helpful, friendly and went above and beyond"
Wow, what a positive, professional experience we had with this company. After having a really challenging time with the builder of our new home, it was so refreshing working with kind, caring, professional tradesmen who relocated our dual mini splits, fixed a poor install from another service provider and cleaned up after themselves. They were helpful, friendly and went above and beyond. We highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a mini split install.

"Can’t recommend highly enough."
Hot Frost installs a great heat pump but their skillset doesn’t end there! Brayden and Neil did an amazing job! Multiple other local companies said it couldn’t be done, but Hot Frost didn’t bat an eye! Mac and Brad also did a great job installing my new Daikin mini split. On time, professional and great cleanup when the work is done. Can’t recommend highly enough. Thank you Hot Frost!

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How Does the $22,000 Heat Pump Rebate Work in Newfoundland?
While often called a “rebate,” the $22,000 support is actually a grant. Through the Oil to Electric Incentive Program in Newfoundland and Labrador, eligible homeowners can receive up to $22,000 to switch from oil to electric heating! This includes up to $15,000 from the federal OHPA program and up to $7,000 from provincial and other federal funds
Why Switch to a Heat Pump With the Rebate?
A heat pump efficiently heats and cools your home, keeping you comfortable throughout the year. It also helps reduce your monthly energy bills and benefits the environment. Plus with the current rebate and grant programs, switching is more affordable than ever.
Who Is Eligible for the Newfoundland Heat Pump Rebate?
To be eligible for the rebate, you must be a homeowner who uses oil heating as your primary heat source in a home that's your primary residence in Newfoundland and Labrador. Renters aren't eligible, and your home must have been built at least 12 months before applying.
What Heating Systems Qualify for the Rebate?
The system must be installed by a qualified contractor and approved under the Take Charge program. Eligible systems include:
- Central heat pumps
- Mini-split or multi-split heat pumps (must provide whole-home heating)
- Electric thermal storage systems
- Electric furnaces or boilers
How does the application process work for the NL Heat Pump Rebate Program?
To apply for the Take Charge Grant, you'll need to gather the following information and documents:
- Your last 12 months of oil statements
- A photo of the HOST tag on your oil tank
- Your Newfoundland Power account number
- Your Social Insurance Number and date of birth
- A quote from a qualified installer for the heat pump or other eligible upgrades
At Hot Frost, we can help you every step of the way throughout the whole process.
Is There a Government Rebate for Mini Split Heat Pumps in Newfoundland?
Yes. Mini split systems are eligible for both the federal grant and the provincial rebate if they meet the criteria and are installed by an approved contractor.
Does the Oil to Electric Rebate Cover HVAC Installation?
Yes. The rebate and grant together can cover installation costs if you’re switching from oil to a qualifying electric system, as long as it’s done by a licensed installer.
What Is the NL Power Rebate for Heating Systems?
The Take Charge rebate, offered by NL Power and Newfoundland Hydro, helps reduce the cost of installing efficient electric heating systems when replacing oil-based systems.
Can I Get a Heat Pump Rebate if I Live in St. John’s?
Yes, residents of St. John’s and surrounding areas can apply if they meet the eligibility criteria. We work locally and can help with quotes, paperwork, and installation coordination.
Are Heat Pump Grants and Rebates the Same Thing?
Not exactly. A rebate usually reimburses you after purchase, while a grant is pre-approved funding you can use toward the cost upfront. The $22,000 support includes both a grant and a rebate working together.
