What Are Puget Sound Energy HVAC Rebates?
Puget Sound Energy (PSE) offers rebate programs that encourage homeowners to install qualifying high-efficiency heating and cooling equipment. These rebates help reduce the upfront cost of upgrading older HVAC systems while improving comfort, energy efficiency, and long-term utility savings.
Unlike federal tax credits, PSE rebates are offered directly through your utility provider and are designed to make energy-efficient home improvements more affordable for eligible customers. Depending on your current heating system, the equipment you install, and your home’s eligibility, you may qualify for one or more rebate opportunities.
At Clean Air Heating & Cooling, we help homeowners understand available rebates, compare qualifying systems, and simplify the process from consultation to installation.

Can You Still Qualify for PSE HVAC Rebates?
Unlike some federal incentive programs, Puget Sound Energy continues to offer rebates for qualifying HVAC upgrades. Eligibility depends on your utility service, the equipment you install, and the current rebate program available at the time of installation.
If you’re considering replacing an older heating or cooling system, it’s worth checking your eligibility before making a purchase. Many homeowners are surprised to learn they qualify for rebates that can significantly reduce the cost of upgrading to a more energy-efficient system.
Who May Be Eligible?
✔ You Must Be an Eligible PSE Customer
PSE rebates are available to eligible residential customers served by Puget Sound Energy. Eligibility varies by program and may depend on whether your home is served by PSE electricity, natural gas, or both, as well as your existing heating system and household qualifications.
✔ You Must Install Qualifying Equipment
Not every HVAC system qualifies. Eligible equipment must meet PSE's current efficiency, equipment, and program requirements. Current heating incentives primarily focus on qualifying heat pump upgrades, conversions, and hybrid heat pump systems, with additional requirements depending on the specific rebate.
✔ Use a PSE Trade Ally or Recommended Energy Professional (REP)
Qualifying PSE heat pump rebate installations must be completed by a PSE Trade Ally or Recommended Energy Professional (REP). Out-of-network contractors and do-it-yourself installations do not qualify for these heat pump incentives. Program-specific installation and documentation requirements must also be met.
✔ Deadlines & Program Requirements Vary
Rebate amounts, qualifying equipment, income requirements, and application deadlines may vary by program and can change throughout the year. For example, PSE's current income-qualified natural gas-to-heat-pump rebate requires the rebate application to be submitted within 30 days of installation. Reviewing the current program requirements before choosing equipment helps prevent missed rebate opportunities.
Not Sure If You Qualify?
Our comfort advisors will review your home's current heating system, explain available PSE rebates, and help you compare qualifying equipment based on your comfort goals and budget.
How Much Could You Save With PSE Rebates?
Current PSE rebates are based on what you’re replacing, what you install, and your eligibility.
Every home is different, which means rebate amounts can vary depending on your current heating system, the equipment you install, and the rebate programs available at the time of your project.
Depending on your project, additional savings opportunities may also be available, including manufacturer promotions, financing options, and other eligible programs. Because qualification and combination rules vary, each incentive should be reviewed individually.
Our comfort advisors help you compare qualifying options so you can understand the savings opportunities available for your project.
