CMHC Eco Plus
Buyers who apply for a mortgage are required to obtain CMHC mortgage insurance if they do not have a down payment of at least 20% of the total value of the home they wish to purchase. CMHC’s Eco Plus program offers a 25% partial refund of the mortgage insurance premium to buyers of a newly built energy-efficient home. Renovating instead? See CMHC Eco Improvement.
BLOWER DOOR TEST
A blower door is a machine used to measure the airtightness of buildings. It can also be used to measure airflow between building zones, to test ductwork airtightness and to help physically locate air leakage sites in the building envelope. In other words, the blower door test quantifies and locates the outside air that enters your home. The blower door is an effective tool used in several energy efficiency programs.
MLI SELECT
The Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) created an innovative new multi-unit mortgage loan insurance product focused on affordability, accessibility, and climate compatibility. MLI Select offers insurance incentives based on affordability, energy efficiency, and accessibility. The more committed you are to social and environmental outcomes, the better the incentives.
