Ontario Cutting Electricity Bills by 25 Per Cent

Starting this Summer, the Government of Ontario is going to be introducing a new Fair Hydro Plan that will cut the cost of hydro in households across the province by 25 per cent. What does this mean for you, the home pool owner? It means BIG savings in pool operations costs, including the cost to run your pump or heat your pool!

Customers using pool heating products such at the electric K-Star heater will see the biggest savings, as these electric resistance heating products typically have the highest running rates. Users of electric heat pumps will also see cost benefit, despite these heating products already being between 3 and 6 times more efficient then electric resistance heating units, such as the K-Star product.

In addition to this energy cost cut, the rate of hydro cost increases over the next four years will also be limited, to ensure a fair rate is maintained, and together, these changes will deliver the single largest reduction to electricity rates in Ontario's history.
