New York City Utility HVAC Program Guide 2026
Review current Con Edison and other possible New York City program requirements before relying on an incentive in a purchase decision.
Every non-federal program shown is conditional. Confirm the customer, utility account, equipment, property, project, funding, amount, delivery method, and current rules in writing with the administrator.
Guidance reviewed ; administrator terms control.
Programs and documents to review
- Con Edison program requirements for the account, equipment, contractor, and project
- National Grid programs only where the relevant account, territory, fuel, and measure rules are confirmed
- NYS Clean Heat, NY-Sun, or geothermal paths only when the responsible administrator confirms current terms
- AHRI or manufacturer records, Manual J, invoices, and pre-approval documents where required
- Written amount, delivery method, funding availability, and combination rules before purchase
Income may not be required for every program, but that does not establish eligibility or guarantee an incentive.
How Home+ can help
We can collect project information, prepare Manual J and equipment records where applicable, and help request current written guidance from the responsible administrator. The administrator, not this page or contractor, makes the program decision.
- ✓ Installation-address and utility-account review
- ✓ Manual J and AHRI or manufacturer documentation
- ✓ Application-timing and administrator checklist
- ✓ Consultation before a project budget is finalized
Preliminary Screen

Answer a few questions to create a program checklist. The result is not eligibility, an award amount, a project net cost, or confirmation that programs can be combined.
Incentive Screening Wizard
Answer a few questions to identify utility and state programs worth verifying with their administrators.
Federal 25C is unavailable for property placed in service after December 31, 2025, and federal 25D is unavailable for expenditures made after that date. HEAR (formerly HEEHRA) is a separate rebate program; current funding, availability, and project eligibility must be verified in writing.
