How do I get the most from my vouchers?
Spend them on the product that saves you the most, usually the appliance that runs the longest hours.
- Pick the product that saves you the most. For many households that's the appliance that runs the longest hours, often the aircon.
- Check the label first. The product must meet the tick requirement, or be approved under the programme.
- Buy from a participating retailer. The vouchers can't be used anywhere else (CFHP terms and conditions).
- Combine with sales. The vouchers offset the price you pay at the retailer.
- Use them before 31 December 2027.
How does the energy label help me choose?
NEA's energy label shows the tick rating (1 to 5) and the estimated annual energy use, so you can compare models directly (NEA: the energy label). Combined with the vouchers, a higher-tick model can cost less overall.
Can I split vouchers across products?
Yes. The vouchers come in small denominations (S$2 to S$50), so they are easy to spread across purchases.
- Can I split the vouchers across products? The vouchers come in small denominations (S$2 to S$50), which makes them easy to spread across purchases at participating retailers (CFHP terms and conditions).
- Can tenants claim? Eligibility depends on who is registered and living at the address. Each address gets one set (Climate Friendly Households Programme FAQs).
- Do installation charges count? Check with the participating retailer. The programme covers eligible products.
Which upgrades work well together?
Pairing a 5-tick aircon with a DC ceiling fan, or replacing an old leaking heater with a 5-tick model, are two good combinations.
- Pair a 5-tick aircon with a DC ceiling fan so you can set the aircon warmer. See fan plus aircon.
- Replace an old leaking water heater with a 5-tick model. See repair or replace.
Do Climate Vouchers cover installation?
