The City of Solana Beach is offering electrification rebates for heat pump water heaters. Electrification refers to the process of replacing everything that burns fossil fuels (like natural gas) with efficient electric alternatives. By removing your natural gas appliances, you reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve indoor air quality. Rebates are available for residential addresses. Eligible low-income residential applicants may qualify for additional funding. If a service panel upgrade is required, applicants may qualify for additional funding. Contractors are also eligible to receive rebates for the installation of heat pump water heaters. Funding is limited and applications will be accepted until funding is exhausted.
Incentive amount:
Applicants can apply for a $500 rebate on when they install a new HPWH to replace a gas water heater at their residence. Income-qualified applicants are eligible for an additional $500. Applicants who will need a service panel upgrade with the installation are eligible for an additional $500, as well.
Contractors who install the HPWH may apply for a $500 rebate as well. Residents must live in the City of Solana Beach, and contractors must have a Solana Beach business license.
