Step 1: The Assessment
Start by scheduling a Home Energy Assessment, starting at $100. Through this program, a certified home energy auditor will come to your home to:
– Perform a comprehensive evaluation of your home systems (air sealing and insulation, HVAC, and more).
– Provide a detailed, customized report with recommended improvements and rebate amounts specific to your home.
Step 2: Rebates
Rebate amounts for eligible performance improvements are listed in the audit report. These amounts represent the maximum rebates available, as long as they do not exceed 75% of the project cost based on the contractor’s proposal after the audit. The total rebate cannot exceed $10,000, with most averages falling between $3,000 to $5,000 when utilized. It functions more like a discount on the proposed cost of the improvement work.
In addition to your Home Performance program rebate of up to $10,000, air sealing and insulation work is eligible for a tax credit of 30% of the project cost (up to $1,200) through federal tax credits. If you upgrade to a new ENERGY STAR® certified heat pump water heater, you could receive similar federal tax credits (30% of project costs, up to $2,000).
Other rebates and even financing may also be available but are outside the scope of this program—refer to applicable websites for more information.
