The short version for Langley: ENERGY STAR window and door replacement is rebated $500-$2,000 through BC Hydro and CleanBC, and the township adds its own $2,000 municipal top-up on qualifying work.
How much rebate you get in Langley
Langley's window and door rebate runs $500-$2,000, delivered through BC Hydro and the CleanBC Better Homes program, for replacing old windows and doors with ENERGY STAR-certified models. It's typically claimed as part of a whole-home retrofit; a standalone window swap usually lands toward the lower end of that range.
Who qualifies
- You own your home in Langley
- You're replacing operable windows or exterior doors with ENERGY STAR-certified models
- Windows must have a U-value of 1.72 or lower (typically triple-pane, low-E coating)
- Doors must be ENERGY STAR-certified for your climate zone
- Income-qualified households get higher rebates
- Work done by a licensed installer may be required
The Langley angle
Langley layers an extra $2,000 municipal top-up on top of the provincial window and door rebate. It's a smaller line item than the heat pump top-up, but it still shows up if your installer files it correctly.

Tips for maximizing your rebate
- Bundle with other upgrades: Whole-home retrofits (windows + insulation + heat pump) often qualify for higher total rebates than standalone window work — see the Langley heat pump rebate guide for how the two stack together.
- Check income thresholds: Low-to-median income households qualify for deeper rebates; ECAP offers the best deals for eligible applicants.
- Verify ENERGY STAR certification: Ask the installer for proof that windows/doors are certified; non-certified models don't qualify.
- Compare installers: Licensed, experienced contractors are more likely to navigate rebate paperwork correctly and avoid delays.
- Plan for air sealing: Window replacement is often combined with air sealing (caulking, weatherstripping) which can boost total rebate eligibility.
