There is no honest Ontario or Niagara price band to give you: the only published money figures for this work are the rebate amounts, and the rest of your number comes from itemized quotes. What drives it is the size of the home, the number of zones, the state of any existing ductwork, and the contractor you hire.
Installation cost
No verified Niagara or Ontario figure for what this work costs exists in any government, association, or other authoritative source, so this guide publishes none. The way to learn what your job costs is a written, itemized quote from a licensed local contractor, and a second one itemized the same way so the two can be compared line by line.
Get a written itemized quote after a site visit; a phone quote without a walk-through is not a reliable number. The quote should name the equipment make and model, the number of zones, any electrical work, and the warranty terms, so a second quote can be compared line by line.
Repair and service cost
No verified Niagara or Ontario figure for what this work costs exists in any government, association, or other authoritative source, so this guide publishes none. The way to learn what your job costs is a written, itemized quote from a licensed local contractor, and a second one itemized the same way so the two can be compared line by line.
How rebates change the real number

The federal programs are closed
Natural Resources Canada lists the Canada Greener Homes Grant as closed (the page is titled Closed: Canada Greener Homes Grant), and the Oil to Heat Pump Affordability program closed its application intake on July 31, 2026, with January 31, 2027 as the deadline to upload documents for applications already in. Any page still telling you to apply for either is out of date.
Confirm current rebate amounts and eligibility directly on the Save on Energy site or at ontario.ca before signing any contract. Do not rely on a contractor's verbal description of the rebate as the final word. More detail on how the rebate picture applies to heat pumps is on the heat pump guide.
