Faithful Footprints Grant
Hope United Church in Alvinston Ontario is delighted to have worked with Faithful Footprints to replace our steam boiler system with a completely new heat pump system. After accumulating some memorial donations that were earmarked for building improvements, in January 2023, our congregation requested that the Official Board look for energy saving improvements to the church. Initially the focus was to look at increasing the insulation in the building. While looking for financial assistance, we came across the Faithful Footprints grant program and it changed our perspective. Our steam boiler heating system was originally installed with the building expansion in 1926 and we believe that the piping is original. In recent years, we have had regular leaks in the pipes that were expensive to repair. With a grant available from Faithful Footprints we chose heat pumps because of the ease of installation as well as it would move us away from using fossil fuels for heat. So far the building is very comfortably warm and we are looking forward to the use of air conditioning for year round comfort.
