Air Source Heat Pump (ASHP) Requirements: 
  1. Must meet federal minimum efficiency requirements and have a minimum capacity of 0.75 tons. Units must be listed in the AHRI Unitary Directory, provided online at: www.ahridirectory.org. 
  2. To be eligible, units must meet current ENERGY STAR program requirements for Air Source Heat Pumps must have a minimum capacity of 1.5 tons. As of 1/1/2016 the following energy efficiency minimums shall be required:
    • commercial heat pump
  3. When installing a split system, both a new outdoor unit (condenser) and a new indoor A-coil (evaporator) must be installed.
  4. Rebates for Air Source Heat Pumps are based on cooling tons. The capacity for qualified units is rated in the AHRI Unitary Directory by its output in "Btuh." This amount is divided by 12,000 to determine the number of tons.
IMPORTANT NOTE: An ENERGY STAR label on equipment does not guarantee that a product qualifies for this incentive (refer to requirements 1-2 above). Current ENERGY STAR information, specifications and eligible equipment lists can be found at www.energystar.gov. 

Geothermal and Water Source Heat Pump Equipment Requirements: 
  1. Equipment must be listed in the AHRI Applied Directory for WBAHP equipment meeting ISO Standard 13256-1 or 13256-2. Data (including capacity) must be obtained from the appropriate section as follows: 
    • WLHP Ratings required for Water Source equipment rebate. 
    • GLHP Ratings required for Closed Loop geo equipment rebate.
  2. Size of unit used to determine rebate is based on the cooling capacity the appropriate section of the AHRI Applied Directory. This information can be verified online for a given brand and model number at: www.ahridirectory.org.  
  3. Closed loop heat exchangers must be designed to maintain water temperatures within AHRI performance test parameters for the type of equipment and rebate being considered.
  4. Units rated only a water loop heat pump (WLHP) equipment must use water that is temperature controlled by a system such as a boiler/cooling tower. These units only qualify for Water Source System rebates.
  5. Contact the Utility if installing Hydronic units used for domestic water heating or pool heating. These may qualify for incentives but will NOT qualify for special heat rate programs unless units also provide space heating. 
  6. Rebates will be paid per 1/2-ton increment with the capacity determined using the appropriate ISO Standard 13256. 
NOTE: The mechanical engineer or equipment specifier and installing contractor should be able to provide Customers with the information necessary to complete the application for this program. Both should be made aware of program requirements prior to installation to ensure that a qualifying system is specified and both must sign this document. 

Eligibility: The Participating Customer must ultimately own the equipment, either through an up-front purchase or at the end of a short-term lease. Equipment procured by Customers through another program offered by the Utility may not be eligible for a rebate through this Program.
