HVAC Rebates and Incentives Currently Available

Federal credits and utility rebates can significantly reduce new equipment costs. Here's what North County homeowners can access.

By James ParkPublished August 18, 2024

New HVAC equipment represents significant expense. Available incentives help offset costs considerably.

Federal Tax Credits

The Inflation Reduction Act provides substantial energy efficiency credits:

**Heat Pumps**: Up to $2,000 for qualifying systems.

**Central AC**: Up to $600 for high-efficiency equipment.

**Furnaces**: Up to $600 for qualifying models.

**Additional Equipment**: Credits for thermostats and related improvements.

These are credits reducing taxes owed dollar-for-dollar, not just deductions.

Utility Rebates

SDG&E and other utilities offer additional incentives:

  • High-efficiency equipment rebates
  • Tune-up rebates
  • Smart thermostat incentives
  • Time-of-use programs

Check your specific utility for current offerings—programs change periodically.

Manufacturer Promotions

Equipment manufacturers periodically offer rebates that combine with other incentives.

Claiming Benefits

**Documentation**: Keep receipts, certifications, and invoices.

**Filing**: Use IRS Form 5695 for residential energy credits.

**Requirements**: Equipment must meet efficiency thresholds.
