Which rebate applies depends on who sends your electric bill. This page goes program by program with each official page linked, and every amount is marked as of October 2026; check current terms. Use the list to jump to yours.
Heat pump rebates come from your electric utility or from a statewide program, so the name on your bill decides which sections below apply to you.
The electric utility for Sacramento County. If your bill says SMUD, go to the SMUD section. SMUD’s territory map is one way to check an address.
The city-owned electric utility for most of Roseville. If your bill says Roseville Electric, go to its section.
If your electric bill says PG&E, see the PG&E section. PG&E also supplies natural gas in Sacramento and Roseville, which matters when you compare a heat pump with a gas furnace.
The state’s Switch Is On incentive finder lists incentives by address if you are not sure what applies.
As of October 2026; check current terms.
Variable-stage heat pump system, gas to electric
Two-stage heat pump (15.2 SEER2 minimum), gas to electric
Two-stage or variable-stage heat pump, electric to electric
Ask any contractor you are considering whether it is in the SMUD Contractor Network before you sign.
TECH Clean California is a statewide program that has paid heat pump incentives. Its single-family heat pump HVAC incentives and its income-qualified federal home energy rebates (HEEHRA) are both listed as fully reserved. For current amounts, see the program’s site.
As of October 2026; check current terms.
TECH’s page says that as of November 14, 2025, its single-family heat pump HVAC incentives are reserved statewide.
TECH’s page says that as of February 24, 2026, HEEHRA single-family rebates are fully reserved for projects statewide. Reservations submitted after that date go on a waitlist, and a waitlisted project is only eligible if the heat pump is installed after the reservation is approved.
Funding can reopen, so check the program’s page before you decide: single-family incentives, HEEHRA rebates, and the Switch Is On incentive finder.
Roseville Electric is the city-owned utility, and it sets its own programs. As of October 2026, its residential rebates and energy savings page lists electric vehicle rebates, the PowerFlex program, the Home Energy Report, seasonal energy saving tips and solar. It does not list a heat pump HVAC rebate, and an older heat pump page on the city’s site carries the word archived in its web address.
Ask Roseville Electric directly whether any heat pump rebate is open before you plan around one, and see the program’s site for current amounts. As of October 2026; check current terms.
PG&E’s central heat pump page does not state a rebate amount. It sends customers to a search by ZIP code for rebates and products; see the program’s site for current amounts. As of October 2026; check current terms.
The Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (25C) covered qualified heat pumps, with the IRS page listing up to $2,000 per year. The page says the credit is allowed for qualifying property placed in service on or after January 1, 2023, and before December 31, 2025. The IRS page was last reviewed or updated on April 28, 2026, and SMUD’s February 2026 announcement says the federal tax credits expired on December 31, 2025.
A heat pump installed this fall does not qualify. If yours went in during 2025, ask a tax professional. As of October 2026; check current terms.
Programs pay for a type of system, not a brand. SMUD’s page asks for a two-stage (15.2 SEER2 minimum) or variable-stage heat pump. Get the model’s stage and efficiency rating in writing.
SMUD’s page says up to $3,000, as of October 2026; check current terms. What you get depends on the equipment and whether you are converting from gas.
SMUD says its rebates are subject to availability of funding, and TECH’s are reserved with a waitlist. Read a program’s status before you plan around it.
PG&E’s page tells customers to make sure the contractor gets a final inspection on the HVAC permit, and California Title 24 requires permits and duct testing on most replacements. See our Title 24 guide.
Bronco is in SMUD’s contractor network and signed up with TECH Clean California, and we fill out the rebate paperwork for you. Bronco is also an Amana dealer. The program figures on this page come from each program’s own page, as of October 2026; check current terms.
Bronco has 60 Google reviews at 4.8 stars. This is the one that mentions a rebate submission, copied as written.
“Alison took care of our SMUD rebate submission; zero effort on our part.”
No. The IRS page says the credit is allowed for property placed in service before December 31, 2025, so a heat pump installed now does not qualify. If yours went in during 2025, ask a tax professional.
SMUD’s page lists $3,000, $2,000 or $1,000 depending on the equipment and whether you are converting from gas. The figures are in the SMUD section above, as of October 2026; check current terms.
SMUD’s page lists rebates for heat pump HVAC systems, gas to electric and electric to electric. It does not list one for an air conditioner or a furnace alone. To compare the options, see heat pump installation, AC installation and furnace installation.
No. SMUD’s page says single-stage systems are not eligible for its rebates. It asks for a two-stage (15.2 SEER2 minimum) or variable-stage heat pump.
Read the program’s steps before the install date, not after. TECH’s page says a waitlisted HEEHRA project is only eligible if the heat pump is installed after the reservation is approved, and SMUD’s page says its rebates are submitted by a participating contractor.
Most of Roseville is served by Roseville Electric, the city-owned utility. Check the name on your electric bill, because the right section on this page depends on it.
