Recent proof it works: the $12,000 East Greenbush install — a set rebate amount that family qualified for — and our heat pump installs in Troy.

Looking for a NYS Clean Heat contractor in Albany, Troy, or Schenectady? That’s exactly what we are — registered with the program, so the rebates for heat pumps come off your project before you sign, not as a refund you chase later.
We prepare and submit your Clean Heat application and make sure your project qualifies.
NYS Clean Heat Rebates
Your NYS Clean Heat rebate for a cold-climate heat pump depends on your home size, whether you qualify as a Disadvantaged Community (DAC), and whether we decommission an existing oil, propane, or gas system. Typical ranges:
| Your home | Standard tier | DAC tier |
|---|---|---|
| Home under 1,000 sq ft — replacing fossil-fuel heat (decommissioning) | Up to $5,000 | Up to $6,000 |
| Home under 1,000 sq ft — no decommissioning | Up to $3,000 | Up to $4,000 |
| Home over 1,000 sq ft — replacing fossil-fuel heat (decommissioning) | Up to $10,000 | Up to $12,000 |
| Home over 1,000 sq ft — no decommissioning | Up to $6,000 | Up to $8,000 |
Decommissioning = permanently removing your old oil, propane, or gas heating system so it can no longer be used. DAC = Disadvantaged Community (income- or area-based eligibility for higher rebates). Actual amounts vary by utility territory and current NYS Clean Heat program rules — we confirm your exact tier during your free estimate. Amounts shown verified July 2026.
Your rebate amount is set by three things — your home’s size, whether you qualify as a Disadvantaged Community (DAC), and whether we decommission an existing fossil-fuel system (see the amounts above). Our job is to make sure your project qualifies and reaches the highest tier you’re eligible for, then handle all the paperwork.
Every project includes a certified Manual J calculation to confirm sizing — required for rebate approval.
We install only Energy Star systems approved under NYS Clean Heat, so your project is fully rebate-eligible.

It depends on your home size, income eligibility (Disadvantaged Community status), and whether we decommission an existing fossil-fuel system. For cold-climate heat pumps, rebates generally range from about $3,000 to $12,000 — larger whole-home systems and oil, propane, or gas replacements qualify for the higher amounts.
