Make sure the quoted system qualifies.

Not every heat pump qualifies. Before you sign, ask the contractor to confirm that the exact system on the quote meets the current program requirements and to show the rebate amount in writing.

You do not need to decode equipment combinations yourself. The contractor should be able to explain what is being installed and why it qualifies.

A few situations need an extra check.

Already have a heat pump, recently moved into a new home, plan to rent the equipment, or have already signed or started work? Check with the program or participating contractor before relying on the rebate.
