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.
In contrast to standard gas-powered units, heat pumps use electrical energy to move warmth from the external atmosphere or ground into your residence during winter, and reverse the operation in summer. This exceptional efficiency translates to reduced utility expenses and a lower carbon output – beneficial for your budget and the planet.

State Rebates
The TECH Clean California program offers extra 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 offered for low-income households or those in disadvantaged communities.
Local Rebates
Redwood City residents can benefit from a generous rebate for heat pump installations, courtesy of the city's own incentive program. This local rebate can be combined with federal and state incentives, possibly saving you even more on your heat pump installation.
By taking advantage of this incentive, Redwood City residents can take an important step towards energy efficiency and decreased carbon emissions while enjoying the year-round comfort of a modern heat pump system.
