City of Piedmont: Central Heat Pump Rebate
Rebate Overview
Overview
The City of Piedmont offers a $1,500 rebate for homeowners replacing existing gas furnaces with energy-efficient central air source heat pumps. This initiative aims to promote cleaner energy solutions and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. To qualify, applicants must provide proof of income eligibility, such as a copy of their utility bill showing participation in the CARE or FERA discounted rate programs, verification that the unit is deed-restricted affordable housing, or a copy of their tax returns. This rebate is available to all residents who meet the income criteria.
Benefits
