The Smart Choice for Modern Homeowners
Heat pumps are the future of home comfort. These innovative systems efficiently heat and cool your home by moving heat, rather than generating it.
Unlike traditional gas-powered appliances, heat pumps use electricity to transfer heat from the outside air or ground into your home during winter, and reverse the process in summer. This remarkable efficiency translates to lower energy bills and a reduced carbon footprint – a win-win for your wallet and the planet.

Federal Tax Credits
The federal government is backing your transition to cleaner energy with the Inflation Reduction Act's Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (EEHIC or 25C). This powerful tax credit can cover up to 30% of the cost of your heat pump installation, with a maximum credit of $2,000.
State Rebates
The TECH Clean California program offers additional rebates to make your heat pump upgrade even more affordable.
TECH Clean California rebates are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Your contractor must also be a participating TECH Clean California partner. Additional incentives may be available for low-income households or those in disadvantaged communities.
Local Rebates
Many municipalities and energy providers offer their own rebates and incentives for upgrading to electric appliances. These local programs can vary widely, from cash rebates to low-interest financing options.
