Common Questions About Rebates

Can I combine rebates with financing?

Yes, in most cases you can receive rebates while also financing your heat pump installation. The rebate can reduce your total cost or be applied as a down payment, lowering the amount you need to finance.

How do I know if I qualify for rebates?

Eligibility depends on factors like your location, current heating system, income level, and the type of heat pump you're installing. Contact us and we can help guide you through the eligibility requirements.

Do I receive the rebate before or after installation?

Most rebates are provided after installation is complete and documentation is submitted. Some programs require pre-approval before starting work.

What documentation is needed for rebates?

Typically you'll need proof of purchase, contractor invoices, installation permits, and photos of the installed system. Some programs also require energy audits.
