Get rebates up to $1,000 on select ENERGY STAR® certified heat pump water heaters.

If your water heater is more than 10 years old, it's time to start planning ahead. Avoid the hassles, stress, and high costs associated with water heater breakdowns by upgrading to an ENERGY STAR certified heat pump water heater today!

Heat pump water heaters that are ENERGY STAR certified use a highly efficient heat pump to transfer heat from the surrounding air to water in the storage tank. This process uses much less power than traditional water heaters, which helps you save energy and money.

  2. You can also purchase from any participating retailer and submit a rebate form online. Rebate claims must be submitted within 90 days of purchasing a qualifying heat pump water heater.

Why Upgrade to an ENERGY STAR Certified Heat Pump Water Heater?
