Additional details

We offer air source heat pump rebates based on the equipment's capacity in tonnage. These incentives are offered once the installation is complete. You can claim an energy optimization rebate through our online rebate portal or by email. Please note that you must work with a contractor from the Energize CT Heat Pump Installer Network to be eligible for an Energy Optimization rebate.

How to get started

Check Eligibility

  • Rebates are available to commercial and industrial electric service customers. All commercial and industrial customers of Eversource or UI can participate.
  • Equipment must be installed in the service territory of the participating utility.


To claim the energy optimization rebate:

  • Equipment must be installed by a contractor participating in the Energize CT Heat Pump Installer Network.
  • Equipment must replace oil, propane, natural gas, or electric baseboard as the primary heating system. If an existing oil, propane, or natural gas system will be left in place, an integrated control must be installed.
  • For Eversource customers, rebate amount will not exceed 100% of the total installation cost. For United Illuminating customers, rebate amount will not exceed 75% of the total installation cost.

Technical Details

  • Equipment must be AHRI rated. Heat pumps under 5.4 tons must be on the Qualified Products List. Heat pumps 5.4 tons or greater must meet the minimum requirements on the measure list.
  • Tonnage is based on AHRI cooling capacity. (1 ton = 12,000 BTUs). Tonnage is calculated by dividing AHRI cooling capacity by ton and rounding to two decimal places.
