Whole House Electrification in San Jose

When rising energy bills and aging gas equipment point to several costly replacements, a whole-house electrification plan in San Jose brings the work into one coordinated project with one C-10 licensed contractor. The heat pump, electric water heater, EV charger, and panel upgrade are installed together rather than divided among several contractors over several years.

Note: The estimate provided is preliminary. A licensed technician will perform measurements to finalize your installation quote.

Reasons To Electrify Your House at Once

Taking on the upgrades as one job lets the contractor work out the electrical load, choose equipment sizes, pull permits, and set the timetable. The panel is upgraded once, with enough capacity for the heat pump, electric water heater, and EV charger, rather than revisited for each installation.

This whole house electrical upgrade may cost less overall than hiring three contractors for three separate projects. It can also help with rebate stacking when programs require equipment to be installed together.

Gas Equipment Sales To Be Banned By 2030?

California’s 2022 Scoping Plan calls for zero-emission standards on new space and water heaters sold from 2030, not a blanket ban on gas appliances. Separate Bay Area zero-NOx rules are being phased in for newly sold and installed furnaces and water heaters; working units do not have to be removed. As of August 2026, draft amendments would shift the small-water-heater deadline from 2027 to 2028.

Reduce Your Energy Bills

Heat pumps produce three to four units of heat per unit of electricity, well beyond a gas furnace. Off-peak PG&E rates for EV charging and water heating cut costs further.

Increase Property Value

All-electric homes can command higher resale value, and EV-charger listings tend to sell faster, though results vary.

How Whole House Electrification Works

Most San Jose electrification projects take two to five on-site days; permits and utility coordination may extend the overall schedule.

Step 1

Home assessment

We calculate household loads, inspect the service and panel, review equipment locations, and identify any electrical rewiring needed before finalizing the design.

Step 2

Rebate audit

We start by checking your project against the latest SJCE, SVCE, PCE, TECH, and state offers, including which savings can be used together.

Step 3

Coordinated installation

One timetable keeps the HVAC, plumbing, and electrical work in order, covering the panel, heat pump, water heater, and EV charger.

Step 4

Permit sign-off and decommission

We arrange required inspections, document testing, label new circuits, and safely decommission or cap gas connections included in the approved scope.

Questions & Answers

Frequently
Asked Questions

Homeowners often want a clearer idea of the likely work, price, rebates, schedule, and what happens to the gas supply. The following answers cover those points before you arrange an assessment and receive a written proposal from IRBIS. 

What does whole house electrification include?

The work covers heat-pump HVAC, electric water heating, an EV charger, and any panel changes needed. Permits, testing, and safely taking old gas equipment out of service are included too. 

How much does whole house electrification cost in San Jose?

IRBIS cannot price the job accurately without seeing the house. Your written quote reflects equipment size, electrical and wiring needs, permits, gas disconnection, and rebates found during the review. 

Can any San Jose home be electrified?

Most homes qualify. An inspection may show that rewiring an old house affects certain circuits or the panel. Whole home rewiring is proposed only when needed.

What rebates are available for whole house electrification in 2026?

San Jose homeowners may qualify for SJCE EcoHome and income-qualified HEEHRA rebates; amounts and stacking vary. The federal 25C credit does not apply to 2026 installations.

How long does a whole house electrification project take?

The work at your home generally takes two to five days. Panel changes, wiring, access, equipment, and inspections affect this; permit and utility waits are separate. 

Do I need to cap my gas line as part of electrification?

Unused appliance branches must be safely capped or decommissioned. Gas service termination and meter removal require utility coordination and depend on whether any gas appliances remain.

Is it worth electrifying now or waiting until closer to the 2030 gas ban?

Older heating or water-heating equipment can fail without much warning. Before putting off electrification, check the rebates offered today, electricity rates, and when the work can be scheduled.

What Affects Electrical Panel Installation Cost?

If you've asked a few electricians about electrical panel installation and gotten very different quotes, you're not alone. Panel work varies more than most homeowners expect — because the final cost depends on what your home actually needs, not just the panel itself. Understanding the key factors behind the price helps you evaluate quotes accurately and make a confident decision.
