Winter Maintenance Updates
Energy Retrofit Inspections: Circle is working with the contractor Ecofitt to take advantage of programs that are currently available to help improve energy efficiency in homes. These programs can provide updates that include topping up insulation in attics and outer walls, replacement of inefficient appliances, and more, with the goal of lowering energy costs and improving comfort in the home. Over the next six months, Ecofitt will be contacting Tenants directly to arrange home visits, to determine if your home qualifies.
These opportunities are available because Circle is participating in Enbridge's Home Winterproofing Program, and the IESO's Energy Assistance Program. You can learn more about the programs, and eligibility rules at the links below. If you have questions about this program, contact Kathy Kurtz at kathy.kurtz@circlelandtrust.ca.

Reminder - Furnace Maintenance: Circle has contracted two companies – Enercare, and Reliance Home Comfort – to perform annual maintenance on furnaces to ensure that they are functioning, and to assess the condition of the equipment for longer-term planning. Representatives from Enercare or Reliance will be contacting Tenants directly to schedule appointments. You can expect a call from them, if you haven’t already received one.
