IMPORTANT UPDATE if your system has already been installed: TO QUALIFY FOR THE REBATE, YOUR HEAT PUMPS MUST HAVE BEEN INSTALLED WITHIN THE PAST 6 MONTHS – sorry no exceptions.

ONLY ONE REBATE PER HOUSEHOLD ALLOWED

GELD is offering a 10% REBATE (not to exceed $500) for heat pumps and/or mini-split systems, geothermal, and electric thermal storage (ETS) systems. Note: a home energy audit is not required to apply for the rebate.

Eligible Improvements

Rebate Application Process

  1. The REBATE Form (below) must be completed and returned (along with the contractor quote) to GELD.  Please be sure to include the product being installed (manufacture & model #s) and include the SEER2 & HSPF2 ratings (acceptable ratings listed below)
  2. GELD will review the application and notify the customer of approval or denial.  In the case of denial, a reason will be given.
  3. Applicant then has work completed by contractor(s).
  4. Following the project completion, the customer calls GELD for a post-installation inspection. The rebate will be processed by GELD after the post-installation inspection.

Acceptable ratings for Air-Source Heat Pumps

Air Source Heat Pump     >=15.2 SEER2    >=8.1 HSPF2   = 10% of cost up To $500 Rebate

Air Source Heat Pump less than the standards above will qualify for a $250 rebate

Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER):
A room air conditioner’s efficiency is measured by the energy efficiency ratio (EER). The EER is the ratio of the cooling capacity (in British thermal units [Btu] per hour) to the power input (in watts). The higher the EER rating, the more efficient the air conditioner.

 Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER2):
This is a measure of equipment energy efficiency over the cooling season. It represents the total cooling of a central air conditioner or heat pump (in Btu) during the normal cooling season as compared to the total electric energy input (in watt-hours) consumed during the same period.

Heating Seasonal Performance Factor (HSPF2): This is a measure of a heat pump’s energy efficiency over one heating season. It represents the total heating output of a heat pump (including supplementary electric heat) during the normal heating season (in Btu) as compared to the total electricity consumed (in watt-hours) during the same period.

Air-Source Heat Pump (ASHP):  An air-source unitary heat pump model consists of one or more factory-made assemblies which normally include an indoor conditioning coil(s), compressor(s), and outdoor coil(s), including means to provide a heating function. ASHPs shall provide the function of air heating with controlled temperature, and may include the functions of air-cooling, air-circulation, air-cleaning, dehumidifying or humidifying.

Note: A/C cooling-only units are not eligible.
