Keep Cool this Summer with a Heat Pump
You can keep your home comfortable all year long with a heat pump. Even though they're called heat pumps, these systems also provide cooling during the warm summer months.

We offer rebates of $700 to $2,100 for central system ducted heat pumps, and rebates of $1,000 to $1,300 for ductless heat pumps.

Rebates are available for customers who heat their homes with electricity. Amounts vary based on your existing heat source and type of home.
