What Halifax Homeowners Ask About Energy Services?
What is the best heating system for a house in Halifax?
For Halifax's maritime climate, cold-climate heat pumps are the top choice. They efficiently heat your home down to -25°C while also providing AC in summer. Compared to oil furnaces or electric baseboard, heat pumps cut heating costs by 40–60%. Mini-split (ductless) systems work great for older Halifax homes without ductwork.
How much do solar panels cost in Halifax?
A typical residential solar system in Halifax costs $15,000–$25,000 before incentives. Halifax receives about 1,400 hours of peak sunlight per year, making solar a solid investment. With net metering through Nova Scotia Power, excess energy credits offset winter bills. Federal grants can reduce costs by up to $5,000.
Do you need AC in Halifax Nova Scotia?
Increasingly, yes. Halifax summers now regularly reach 28°C with high harbour humidity. The 2023 wildfire smoke events also highlighted the need for indoor air filtration. Mini-split heat pumps provide both efficient AC and heating in one system, plus built-in air filtration — making them the smart choice for Halifax's changing climate.
What insulation is best for Halifax homes?
For Halifax's damp maritime climate, closed-cell spray foam insulation is ideal — it provides the highest R-value per inch and acts as a moisture barrier, preventing mould in basements and crawl spaces. For attics, blown-in cellulose or batt insulation works well. We assess your home and recommend the right combination for maximum energy savings.
Does Greenfoot serve all of Halifax?
Yes! We serve all of Halifax and HRM from our nearby Dartmouth office in Burnside — South End, North End, West End, Clayton Park, Fairview, Spryfield, Bedford, Sackville, Cole Harbour, Eastern Passage, and everywhere in between. Same-day consultations are often available.

"FIXED A LONG STANDING ISSUE I HAD FROM POOR INSTALLATION BY ANOTHER COMPANY!"
The two technicians Tanner and Halim were excellent, did a great job, very tidy, and identified 2 problems with my heat pump head, and fixed a long standing issue I had from poor installation by another company! Thank you very much, looking forward to using Greenfoot again.

"I ONLY WISH THEY INSTALLED OUR HEAT PUMP ORIGINALLY"
Great company to deal with. We hired them to move an existing heat pump after the original installer refused to help us. The estimator and the installer were both very polite, careful and thorough. I only wish they installed our heat pump originally. I would hire them again without hesitation.

"WHEN THEY LEFT THE HOUSE THERE WAS NO MESS TO CLEAN UP!"
The young chaps, Marlon Marcuflo and Sylvia Richard, were wonderful to deal with. They were extremely polite, very tidy and efficient in their work, were right on schedule and did an excellent job. When they left the house there was no mess to clean up. I would recommend Greenfoot Energy Solutions to anyone thinking of upgrading their home.

We hired Greenfoot to install 2 heat pumps. From the beginning to end - initial home visit to the final installation touches - they were wonderful to work with. Their entire team is extremely experienced, knowledgeable, and considerate; and were very accommodating.

"OUR OLD HOUSE FEELS LIKE A BRAND NEW CONSTRUCTION"
The Greenfoot Team did amazing work in our home. Our old house (built in 1959) feels like a brand new construction thanks to the ductless heat pumps, spray foam insulation and HVAC installed by the friendliest staff! Everyone we spoke to from Greenfoot was helpful and just seemed genuinely happy in their job.
