Tools for households and SMEs
A free, easy-to-use, public web platform
Aimed at households as well as small and medium-sized businesses, the Chauffermieux.com platform targets small residential and commercial buildings in the greater Montreal area – a segment not previously covered by the City of Montreal’s GHG emissions disclosure by-law, or the by-law in preparation by the Quebec government on the environmental performance of buildings.
Free of charge and easy to use, the platform proposes the most cost-effective and environmentally-friendly solutions, taking into account the financial assistance currently available in Quebec.
