San Jose Clean Energy EcoHome Rebate: Heat Pump Water Heater
Rebate Overview
Overview
The San Jose Clean Energy EcoHome Rebate: Heat Pump Water Heater is a rebate program that offers homeowners up to $2,000 for replacing their old gas water heater with a new heat pump water heater. If you qualify for CARE/FERA programs, meet certain income limits, or live in a qualifying community, you can receive an additional $1,000, totaling up to $3,000 in savings. An interest-free EcoHome payment plan of up to $5,000 is also available to help with the upfront costs.
This rebate is intended for replacing existing fossil fuel appliances, specifically gas water heaters, with more energy-efficient heat pump water heaters.
Benefits
