Heat Pump Rebate Program

When you install a heat pump in San Mateo County, you may be eligible for Peninsula Clean Energy’s Rebate Program. It is a part of the BayRen Home+ program, which has provided rebates for energy efficiency upgrades in the nine counties of the Bay Area. Through the Peninsula Clean Energy (PCE) program, you can receive a rebate for a heat pump water heater (HPWH) or heat pump heating ventilation and air conditioning (HP HVAC) upgrade.

What Is a Heat Pump Rebate?

Launched on January 1, 2021, these rebates are available on a first-come, first-serve basis and while funds last. The Bay Area Regional Energy Network (BayREN) Home+ program offers homeowners incentives to perform energy-efficient upgrades that also improve comfort and indoor air quality. Eligible customers can receive a total rebate of up to $5,000. The Peninsula Clean Energy (PCE) and BayRen Home+ rebates can be combined but not exceed the cost of any individual upgrade.

The Peninsula Clean Energy rebates are as follows:

Heat Pump Water Heater Replacement for a Gas Water Heater: $3,000+$1000 additional rebate by choosing IRBIS (One rebate per unit replaced, with a limit of two water heater rebates per account).
Heat Pump Water Heater Replacement for an Electric Resistance Water Heater: $500 (One rebate per unit and a limit of two rebates per account).
Heat Pump HVAC Replacement for a Gas Heater/Furnace: $3,500+$1000 additional rebate by choosing IRBIS (One rebate per condensing or packaged unit; maximum amount of $7,000 per account).

BayREN rebates include:

Who Is Eligible?

The eligibility requirements for a heat pump rebate include:

You own the residence in which upgrades are installed.
Your home was built in 2016 or earlier.
An upgrade was installed on or after October 1, 2022.
An existing electric resistance water heater or gas tank/tankless water heater is being replaced.
HPWHs of all sizes, voltage, or amperage levels qualify (including unitary or split models).
An HP HVAC must replace a gas heater/furnace, whether It’s packaged, split, or mini/multi-split system.
An HP HVAC must include a heat pump component and replace an existing gas heater/water heater.

How to Receive the Rebates?

If you’re working with a BayREN Participating Contractor, they will complete the rebate forms and obtain your signature for each. These include the Peninsula Clean Energy customer participation agreement. The contractor will then submit the application, which a program administrator will review and process before forwarding it to PCE. Payment is issued by PCE while rebates from BayREN and PCE are sent separately.

Kenny came in to do our AC maintenance. He was very courteous and knowledgeable and did a great job cleaning up our old and neglected AC unit. Really happy with the service and will not hesitate to hire them again for future jobs.

Amazing job completed on Xmas eve by a professional team of technicians. My parents heating system failed 4 days before the holiday break. Tim and his team stepped up and sourced a complete heat pump system out of thin air, worked for two days, stayed up late to install the unit as they wanted my parents to be comfortable as soon as possible. They were kind, courteous, hardworking, professional and prompt. Amazing experience.

Our furnace stopped working over the weekend and I called around to shops Monday morning. IRBIS Got back to me quickly and was able to schedule a technician to diagnose the problem on Wednesday. The technician was very professional and diagnosed a bad control board. Fortunately they had the part in stock in the warehouse, but unfortunately because it was right before the holidays they would not be able to make it out until the following week. I had family coming into town and pleaded with them to fix it before the weekend. They were able to make it happen and the same technician came out the next morning and installed it. The cost was very reasonable and the work was top-notch. I was so grateful they were willing to make changes to get the job done sooner. I would highly recommend.

I have to start out with a shout out to Raymond, who came and gave us the estimate. His attention to detail and communication was both informative and helpful...weighed into our decision. Our heater was replaced by Eric and Juan, who here all day, they did a great job! We so appreciate the work they did, again the attention to detail...just a good/positive experience all the way around, we would not change a thing!

IBRIS is professional and easy to work with team. I want to especially recommend Eric Capella and Juan S to anyone looking to replace heating furnace and relayed job. We had a complicated situation with and old furnace and it was pretty hard to take it out before replacing. They both did an awesome job.
