Common Questions

The CleanBC Better Homes program offers a standard rebate of $100 per window (up to $2,000 total). Income-qualified households can receive up to $950 per window, with a maximum project cap of $9,500. Windows must have a U-factor of 1.22 W/m²-K or lower to qualify.

The City of Victoria charges a $100 application fee plus a permit fee equal to 1.40% of the total construction value. For a $15,000 project, the permit cost would be approximately $310.

Triple-pane windows typically cost 15% to 30% more than double-pane units (roughly $150-$400 more per window). However, they reduce heat loss by 30% to 40% and are often required to meet the U-factor thresholds for maximum government rebates.

Full-frame (brick-to-brick) replacement is 15% to 20% more expensive than retrofit (insert) installation. While retrofits cost $150-$250 in labor per unit, full-frame replacements offer better long-term waterproofing and insulation for Victoria's wet climate.
