Heating and cooling rebates
If your heating and cooling systems are old, they’re probably inefficient. Replacing them can trim your energy bills.
SMUD offers rebates on energy-efficient central air conditioning systems, room air conditioners, whole-house fans, heat pumps and air-duct sealing.
If you are going to be doing multiple improvements, our Home Performance Program may be for you.
Heating and cooling systems, rebates up to $3,000
Effective August 11, we are increasing our heat pump HVAC gas-to-electric upgrade. Some rebates will remain suspended for the remainder of the year.
