How it works
Langley's smart thermostat offer isn't a reimbursement — BC Hydro sends the device to qualifying homes at no cost. It's aimed at electric baseboard heat, where scheduling cuts standby waste the most.
No purchase price, no receipt to submit — the thermostat ships once you're approved.
The offer targets baseboard-heated homes specifically, where scheduling has the biggest impact on the bill.
Who qualifies
- You own or rent a home in Langley that currently heats with electric baseboards
- Your unit doesn't already have a compatible smart thermostat installed
- You're a BC Hydro account holder at the service address
What it doesn't cover
Gas, oil, and heat-pump homes in Langley fall outside this offer — a smart thermostat there is bought at retail, and it still pays off through scheduling. Renters on baseboard heat can generally sign up without landlord approval.
How to claim it
- Confirm electric baseboards heat your Langley home, then check the rest of your options with the free rebate assessment
- Sign up through BC Hydro's electric baseboard thermostat offer
- Install the thermostat yourself, or have your HVAC contractor set it up during another visit
- Set your schedule — lower temperatures overnight and while you're out are where the real savings come from

Common questions
How do I get a free smart thermostat in Langley?
BC Hydro's electric baseboard program gives eligible Langley homes a free smart thermostat, as long as your home currently heats with electric baseboards. BC Hydro ships the thermostat directly once you sign up through their electric baseboard offer — there's no purchase or mail-in receipt required.
Does the Langley smart thermostat offer work if I heat with gas or a heat pump?
No. This particular free-thermostat offer is tied to electric baseboard heating specifically. If you're on gas, oil, or already have a heat pump, a smart thermostat still helps with scheduling and setbacks, but you'd buy one at retail rather than through this program.
