Welcome to the Pennsylvania Home Heating Equipment Rebate Program!

Almost half of your home energy consumption goes toward heating and water heating — more than any other appliance or fixture. That’s why Pennsylvania is offering an incentive for you to upgrade your heating equipment for energy cost savings.

For purchases on or after April 21, 2010, residents of Pennsylvania are eligible to receive rebates for the purchase of qualifying high efficiency home heating equipment.

Rebates to Increase August 2!
Effective August 2, 2010, Phase II of the program will increase rebate amounts for all qualifying high efficiency heating equipment categories. Please see Qualifying Products for more information about the new incentive levels.
There is no change to the participation process or eligibility requirements. All purchases after August 2 will receive the full Phase II rebate amount in one rebate check. If you already received a rebate for a qualifying purchase made on or after April 21, 2010 and prior to August 2, 2010, you will receive a separate check for the difference between the original and Phase II rebate amount. See the program FAQs for details.
