What Ontario pays for new appliances in Mississauga
We re-read the program's appliance page on October 4, 2026. The rebates are province-wide, so the amounts are the same in every city, and the rules about what you replace and which model you buy are what decide a claim.
Heat pump clothes dryer
The largest of the six appliance rebates, for a new ENERGY STAR Most Efficient heat pump dryer replacing an electric dryer.
Induction cooktop or range
For a new induction cooktop or range on the program's product list, replacing an existing electric one.
Washing machine
For a new ENERGY STAR Most Efficient washer on the program list.
Fridge
For a new ENERGY STAR Most Efficient refrigerator replacing an existing electric one.
Freezer
For a new ENERGY STAR Most Efficient freezer on the list.
Dishwasher
For a new ENERGY STAR Most Efficient dishwasher on the list.
Who can claim
A residential customer on the Ontario grid with an existing electric appliance in need of replacing. Cornwall Electric customers are excluded.

The appliance page states no end date, so confirm it is still open before you buy.
Homes the appliance page does and does not name
The thermostat rebate lists house types, and the windows and insulation rebates need an assessment. The appliance page is different: it asks only for a residential customer on the Ontario grid. For the 27% of Mississauga households in tall buildings, that makes appliances the rebate to ask about first, with the caveat that the page does not mention condos.
Alectra Utilities bills
Alectra Utilities distributes power in Mississauga. The rebate does not come from it, but your account with it is what shows you are on the Ontario grid. A tenant whose power is in the rent should ask the landlord.
Adding up the six
The six rebates are $200 for a heat pump dryer, $150 for an induction cooktop or range, $75 for a washer, $50 each for a fridge and a freezer and $25 for a dishwasher. A household that replaced all six would receive $550, though few Mississauga homes will need to swap everything at once. The rebate is flat, so it takes the same amount off an entry model and a premium one.
Most Efficient, not just ENERGY STAR
The rebate is for ENERGY STAR Most Efficient models, which the page describes as going beyond standard ENERGY STAR requirements. A fridge with the ordinary ENERGY STAR mark may not qualify. Each appliance has its own product list linked from the program page, so find the model number there before you pay, whether you buy in Mississauga or online.
When replacing makes sense
About 38% of Mississauga's 244,575 households live in homes built before 1981. Age of the house tells you little about the age of the fridge, and a working appliance rarely pays back a swap through a $25 to $200 rebate alone. The rebate suits a replacement you already need to make.
Keep your paperwork
Before you upload anything, put the receipt, the model number from the box or the appliance label and the delivery date in one place. The program checks the model against its list, so a clear model number saves a follow-up. If the claim is refused, the usual reasons are a model off the list, an appliance that was not a replacement or a receipt more than 60 days old. A Mississauga household that keeps these together can fix most problems quickly.
How to claim in Mississauga
- Check that the appliance you are replacing is electric and that you are on the Ontario grid.
- Find a new model on the program's ENERGY STAR Most Efficient list for that appliance.
- Buy it new from any retailer and keep the receipt.
- Upload the receipt on the program page within 60 days of purchase.
- If your household income is under the limits, call 1-844-770-3148 about free fridges and freezers first.
