To help encourage the development of high-performance windows, the Province of BC will offer BC based window manufacturer’s incentives up to $80,000 to design, test, certify, and build new, energy efficient window products. Manufacturers who obtain an ENERGY STAR Most Efficient product certification are eligible to receive up to $25,000 while Passive House Institute certified products are eligible for up to $40,000 in incentives.
QAI Laboratories can provide all testing, certification, and listing requirements to help BC window manufacturers successfully complete these programs. For more information please contact QAI at info@qai.org or 604-527-8378
