CASE STUDIES - B

FINANCIALLY VIABLE
WINDOW RETROFIT
PROGRAM

SUMMARY

  • Bex estimates a window replacement cost of $3,200,000.
  • By 2025, the client will retrofit all window systems with allocated capital reserve budget of $2,500,000.
  • There is a shortfall on window replacement costs of $700,000 between now and the time of install. Over the next two years, the client would need to increase maintenance fees by $8,750/year/unit.
  • Currently, the client pays $20,000 every year for glazing refurbishments.
  • New window systems will reduce heating and cooling cost, while reducing cost future glazing refurbishments.
  • Currently there are no energy incentives for windows on condo buildings. Both IESO and Enbridge commercial incentive programs do not contribute to Window retrofits.
  • A Finance Program is available offering financing at city lending rates (~3%) over 20 years. The loans are securitized through the energy and cost savings achieved through energy savings initiatives like window retrofits.
  • The Finance Program will be awarding 10 to 16 existing multi-residential and commercial buildings with a Deep Retrofit Grant equal to 25% of project costs up to $500,000 (depending on Floor Area).
