NYS Clean Heat — Air-Source Heat Pump
NYSERDA / NYS Clean Heat
Available Incentive
$1,000–$3,000 per ton
Per-ton rebate framework for qualifying cold-climate air-source heat pumps installed by a Participating Partner. On Long Island this is administered by PSEG-LI as the Home Comfort Program (flat tier); in NYC it is administered by Con Edison Clean Heat. The per-ton figure shown is the statewide reference — your actual rebate comes from your local utility administrator, not stacked on top.
Equipment & install requirements
- NEEP cold-climate listed equipment
- Installed by participating contractor
Who qualifies
- NY residents
- Customers of participating utility
Why this rebate matters
NYS Clean Heat is administered through your local utility (PSEG-LI, Con Edison, or National Grid) and stacks on top of federal incentives. It's tied to verified heat pump performance, not just brand.
How we apply this rebate for you
- 1
Free in-home assessment
We measure your home, check ductwork, electrical capacity, and existing equipment. No high-pressure sales — just an honest read on what fits.
- 2
We verify rebate eligibility for you
We confirm income tier (if applicable), equipment qualification, and program availability before quoting. No surprises after install.
- 3
Rebate is applied to your install price
Instead of waiting months for a check, we discount the rebate directly off your install quote. You see the net number upfront.
- 4
We file the paperwork
We submit the rebate application, equipment registration, and any utility documentation on your behalf — even when the rebate comes to us.
Sample savings scenario
Typical Long Island install
Illustrative only. Your actual price depends on equipment, home conditions, and program approval at time of install.
Documents you'll need
- Proof of address (utility bill or deed)
- Most recent electric bill
- Existing system info (we capture this during the assessment)
- Income documentation — only for income-qualified tiers
We collect everything during your free assessment — no chasing paperwork on your end.
Timeline
We file the application within 14 days of install. Because we apply the rebate as an instant discount, you see the savings on day one — not after a 6–12 week processing wait.
How you get paid
Applied as a midstream discount through your utility. We coordinate submission so it shows up on your install quote, not a check months later.
Frequently asked
Do I have to wait for a rebate check?
No. We apply qualifying rebates as an instant discount on your install price. You get the net price upfront — no waiting on the mail.
What if I don't qualify?
We tell you before you commit. If a program won't approve, we re-quote with only the rebates you actually qualify for — never inflated savings on paper.
Can I stack this with other rebates?
Most utility, state and federal programs can stack — but stacking rules change by income tier and equipment. We model your full stack before quoting.
