Administered by the Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Institute of Canada (HRAI), and supported by the Canadian Institute of Plumbing and Heating (CIPH), the Switch the 'Stat program works with heating and cooling contractors and wholesalers to encourage the installation of energy-efficient programmable thermostats, while simultaneously diverting the older mercury-containing and electronic thermostats from landfill. Switching to newer and more energy-efficient programmable thermostats and responsibly disposing of older mercury-containing thermostats reduces energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, and prevents mercury from contaminating our air, soil, and water.
