Installing a Gradient All-Weather Heat Pump may cost less than you think. Across the United States, utilities, state energy offices, and local governments offer a growing number of incentives to help reduce the cost of upgrading to high-efficiency electric heating and cooling. These programs can significantly lower upfront costs while helping building owners improve comfort, reduce energy use, and meet electrification goals.
Gradient works closely with utilities and energy efficiency programs nationwide to expand access to incentives for window heat pumps. As a result, our systems are eligible for rebates through a growing number of utility, state, and regional programs, with new opportunities becoming available each year.
Use the resources below to explore incentives available in your area. If you don’t see a program listed for your location, please contact us at incentives@gradientcomfort.com.
We’re continually working with utilities and program administrators to bring Gradient incentives to additional markets. Program availability, eligibility requirements, and funding levels vary by location and are subject to change.
