Act now to get your HEEHRA rebates

Beginning today, November 25, 2025, HEEHRA income verifications reopened for new single family heat pump heating and air conditioning projects. You can go to the HEEHRA income verification portal to verify your income to see if you qualify. Note that you need to include all adults living in the household. 

Projects must have an approved reservation to submit a claim for HEEHRA rebates. HEEHRA rebate reservations start with an approved income verification and are processed first come, first served. Available funding is limited and varies by region. Check the TECH Public Reporting Budget Report for updates.

We will update this page as we learn more.

How much can I save?

• Depending on your income level, you can save $4,000 or $8,000 off your home heating and air conditioning upgrade. Your savings depend on your income level.

How long do I have to get a HEEHRA rebate before the program ends?

• This HEEHRA relaunch ends on February 28, 2026. However, we expect that the program funds will be used up quickly, so act today to plan your heat pump project and reserve your rebate.

I've already installed a new heat pump system. Can I get a rebate?

• Unfortunately not. Customers who have initiated or completed a heat pump HVAC installation are not eligible to submit an income verification application.
• Emergency replacements and process exceptions are reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Please verify your income prior to an emergency replacement and direct your contractor to reach out to the program team about your situation.
