Considering purchasing a ductless mini split heat pump? Did you know Mitsubishi is offering customers from select municipal utility communities special pricing on the purchase of a cold climate heat pump? Projects with an installation date of January 1, 2021 or later are eligible and the offer goes through December 31, 2021 or until funds are exhausted. Eligible customers have the option of purchasing one or two single-zone devices for a $300 discount per device or one multi-zone device for a discount of $500. Visit HERE for more information or to start the application process.

IMPORTANT: System sizing and proper installation are critical to energy efficiency and home comfort. Prior to installation, your installer must perform a load (sizing) calculation that is “ACCA approved version 8 Manual J.”

In order to qualify for a rebate you must:

Purchase and install an ENERGY STAR® qualifying product at a property with an active electric account with one of the participating energy efficiency providers.
Obtain your contractor’s invoice with equipment make, coil and condenser model numbers, size in tons, date and location of installation, and total installation cost.
Submit the following with your application:
1. Contractor’s invoice showing required information and proof of purchase.
2. Copy of Load (sizing) Calculation “ACCA approved version 8 Manual J” (REQUIRED to qualify for rebate. NOTE: Load calculations are not needed for ductless mini split systems).
3. Copy of a recent electric bill.
4. A copy of the AHRI Certificate. (Visit www.ahridirectory.org or contact your Heating and Air Conditioning Contractor to obtain a copy.) When applying, please read your participating utility’s terms & conditions carefully. Rebate qualifications and limitations may vary.
