Rebates of Up to $500 Available for Non-Electric Home Heating Upgrades

Program Begins April 21.

Harrisburg – A new rebate program designed to help consumers save money and energy by making it more affordable to upgrade a home heating system will open April 21. 

The Pennsylvania Home Heating Equipment Rebate Program could help as many as 33,000 households to purchase Energy Star-rated, non-electric residential hot water heaters, furnaces and boilers.  

The federally-funded rebates will range from $100 to $500, depending on the equipment’s efficiency rating. 

Consumers can apply for and receive their rebates by following three simple steps: 

• Reserve a rebate by completing an online application. Residents without Internet access can call 877-592-2061 to make a reservation;
• Purchase and have a contractor install a qualifying product. Purchases made before April 21 will not be eligible; and
• Submit the completed rebate application within 30 days of the reservation date.

Applications and program details are available at www.paheatingrebates.com.To learn about rebates for appliance upgrades, consumers should contact their electric utility.
