Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) Efficiency Program
Heating and Cooling Equipment
Get $150–$500 in rebates when you upgrade to a more efficient heating or cooling system.
As much as half of the energy used in your home goes to heating and cooling.* Upgrading your HVAC system can save you energy and money, help control temperature and humidity and let you enjoy indoor comfort all year round.
Replace your unit with one that meets the energy efficiency criteria below to qualify for a rebate.
