HVAC Rebates and Incentives You Can Use

Federal credits and utility rebates reduce new equipment costs significantly. Here's what's available now.

By Robert ChenPublished July 28, 2024

New HVAC equipment costs real money. Available incentives help offset that expense considerably.

Federal Tax Credits

The Inflation Reduction Act provides energy efficiency credits:

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

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

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

**Additional Items**: Credits for thermostats and other improvements.

These are credits—dollar-for-dollar reduction of taxes owed—not deductions.

Utility Rebates

Local utilities often add incentives:

  • High-efficiency equipment rebates
  • Tune-up discounts
  • Smart thermostat rebates
  • Special rate programs

Check your specific utility for current offerings. Programs change regularly.

Manufacturer Offers

Equipment makers periodically provide rebates. These stack with other incentives for additional savings.

Claiming Credits

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

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

**Efficiency Requirements**: Equipment must meet specific thresholds.

Maximizing Benefits

Time purchases strategically:

  • Align with utility rebate availability
  • Consider heat pumps for larger federal credits
  • Combine multiple improvements
