Available Heat Pump HVAC Rebates

SMUD offers rebates for qualifying multi-stage electric heat pump HVAC systems installed by participating contractors in the SMUD Contractor Network. Depending on the equipment selected and whether the project involves a gas-to-electric conversion, homeowners may qualify for the following rebate amounts:

• Up to $3,000 for qualifying variable-stage heat pump systems converting from gas to electric
• Up to $2,000 for qualifying two-stage heat pump systems with a minimum 15.2 SEER2 rating converting from gas to electric
• Up to $1,000 for qualifying multi-stage heat pump upgrades replacing an existing electric system
• Up to $2,000 Go Electric Bonus for eligible electrical panel upgrades completed as part of a gas-to-electric conversion

Rebate funding is subject to availability, and applications must be submitted through a participating contractor. In some cases, contractors may be able to apply the rebate upfront and receive reimbursement directly from the program after project completion.

Heat Pump HVAC System Requirements

To qualify for available rebates, homeowners must install a qualifying multi-stage electric heat pump HVAC system through a participating contractor in the SMUD Contractor Network. Eligible systems may include package units, split systems, and whole-home mini-split systems that provide heating and cooling throughout the home. Qualifying systems typically include either a variable-stage compressor or a two-stage compressor with a minimum efficiency rating of 15.2 SEER2.

Additional program requirements may include a connected Wi-Fi enabled programmable thermostat, Title 24 compliance verification, and proper duct insulation when new ductwork is installed. Because rebate guidelines can change, it is important to verify current requirements before beginning your project.

Benefits of Upgrading to a Heat Pump System

Modern heat pump systems provide both heating and cooling from a single energy-efficient unit. Unlike traditional systems that generate heat through combustion, heat pumps transfer heat to efficiently maintain comfortable indoor temperatures throughout the year.

• Lower monthly energy costs
• Improved year-round comfort
• More consistent indoor temperatures
• Reduced reliance on fossil fuels
• Potential eligibility for additional state and federal incentives
• Quiet operation and modern technology features

Many homeowners also combine HVAC upgrades with additional energy-efficiency improvements such as insulation upgrades, heat pump water heaters, or electrical panel improvements to maximize long-term savings and comfort.

Additional Incentives May Be Available

SMUD heat pump rebates may be combined with other available incentive programs when eligibility requirements are met. Depending on available funding and program guidelines, homeowners may qualify for additional statewide electrification incentives and energy-efficiency programs.

Some qualifying heat pump systems may also be eligible for federal energy-efficiency incentives. Available programs, funding levels, and eligibility requirements can change over time, so homeowners should review current offerings before moving forward with an installation.
