Most Québec heat pump projects fall into three cases: wall units to replace or support electric baseboards, a central unit on a forced-air furnace’s ducts, or a conversion from oil. Capacity, the number of indoor heads, the ducts and the electrical panel drive the price.

Wall-mounted, one head: $3,000–6,500 installed.
Central: $6,000–13,500 for 2 to 4 tons; up to $15,000 in other guides, plus any duct work.
LogisVert: $120 per 1,000 BTU/h for an ENERGY STAR cold-climate model, up to $6,700, claimed by the owner after the work.
Federal rebate: up to $10,000 or $2,000 depending on income, for installations from November 1, 2026.

Hydro-Québec LogisVert: based on heating capacity measured at −8 °C: $50 per 1,000 BTU/h for an ENERGY STAR model, $120 for ENERGY STAR cold-climate, up to $6,700 and never more than the pre-tax cost. A 24,000 BTU/h wall unit at −8 °C earns $2,880 (cold-climate) or $1,200. The owner applies online after the work, within 9 months; the invoice must show the contractor’s RBQ licence number and the unit’s AHRI or ENERGY STAR number.
National Heat Pump Rebate: up to $10,000 for low- to median-income households, $2,000 for others, no energy audit. Installations from November 1, 2026 count; the portal opens in early 2027. The LogisVert guide bars a second government subsidy on the same unit, so stacking the two is still to be confirmed when the federal rules are published.
Énergir dual energy: adding a heat pump to a gas forced-air system, up to $7,300 for a house or condo, $8,600 for a duplex, $9,100 for a triplex, at most 80% of the extra cost.
Montréal RénoPlex: $1,350 per dwelling to switch from oil or gas to a central heat pump.
Closed: Chauffez vert (March 31, 2026), the federal oil-to-heat-pump program (new applications, July 31, 2026) and the Canada Greener Homes Loan. Since October 1, 2026, Rénoclimat no longer funds heating.

Wall-mounted, central or dual energy?

Your home	The usual setup
Electric baseboards, no ducts	One wall unit per open area, or a multi-zone
Electric forced-air furnace	A central heat pump on the existing ducts, if they are large enough
Oil heating	Conversion: tank removed, central or wall units, electric backup
Énergir gas furnace	Dual energy: the heat pump heats most of the time, gas takes the coldest days

Hydro-Québec notes that most air-source heat pumps lose capacity below −15 to −25 °C: keep a backup heat source, set baseboards 2–3 °C below the heat pump and avoid Auto mode.
