Save Money Upgrading Equipment You Already Need
Ontario’s rebate landscape is real — but complex. Enbridge Gas, Union Gas, IESO, and federal programs offer meaningful incentives for commercial door, dock, and HVLS fan upgrades. The problem is most facility managers never claim them because the process is confusing. Wilcox knows the programs, the qualifying equipment, and the paperwork. We make sure you don’t leave money on the table.
Enbridge Gas SaveOnEnergy
Rebates available for HVLS fans, high-speed doors, and insulated door upgrades that reduce heating load. Programs require pre-approval before work begins — Wilcox handles the submission.
Canada Greener Homes & CMHC
Federal incentives for energy-efficient building envelope improvements, including insulated sectional doors and dock sealing systems that reduce thermal losses in warehouses and cold storage.
IESO Industrial Conservation
Industrial facilities may qualify for demand reduction incentives by replacing aging, inefficient equipment. HVLS fans and high-speed door systems are common qualifying upgrades for large operations.
Equipment That Typically Qualifies
High-Speed Doors
Replacing old slow-rolling or sliding doors with high-speed roll-up doors dramatically reduces conditioned air loss — a top qualifying upgrade for Enbridge programs.
HVLS Fans
High-volume, low-speed ceiling fans destratify air in large spaces — reducing heating costs by up to 20% in tall warehouses. Commonly eligible for utility rebates.
Insulated Sectional Doors
Upgrading to higher R-value insulated sectional doors reduces thermal losses in loading bays — particularly impactful for facilities with frequent door cycling.
Dock Seals & Shelters
Proper dock sealing prevents air infiltration during loading. Upgrading worn or missing dock seals qualifies as a building envelope improvement in some incentive programs.

Green Programs — FAQ
What rebates are available for commercial door and dock upgrades in Ontario?
The main programs are Enbridge Gas SaveOnEnergy, Union Gas (now Enbridge), IESO programs, and federal Canada Greener Buildings grants. Qualifying equipment includes high-speed doors, HVLS fans, insulated sectional doors, and dock sealing systems.
Do I need to apply for rebates before the work is done?
Yes — most programs require pre-approval before installation begins. This is one of the most common reasons facilities miss out on rebates. Wilcox handles the pre-approval applications as part of the project.
How much can we save through these programs?
It varies by equipment and program. HVLS fan rebates typically range from $500–$2,000 per unit. High-speed door replacements can qualify for $1,000–$5,000+ depending on program guidelines and equipment specs.
Does Wilcox handle all the paperwork?
Yes. We manage program pre-approval, technical documentation, installation verification, and post-project claim submission. You focus on your operation — we handle the incentive process.
Are there rebate programs for cold storage facilities specifically?
Cold storage operations often qualify for additional incentives because of the high energy cost of maintaining controlled temperatures. Dock seals, high-speed doors, and insulated doors are especially impactful here.
How long does it take to receive a rebate?
Most Enbridge programs pay within 60–90 days of project completion and claim submission. Federal programs may take longer. We track submission status and follow up on your behalf.
