Con Edison delivers NY State Clean Heat rebates across its NYC service territory — typically $1,500 to $4,800 per cooling ton depending on equipment tier and whether the install is a partial or whole-home conversion. Income-qualified households layer HEEHRA on top for up to $8,000 additional at point-of-sale. All rebates flow through Con Edison participating contractors.

Overview

Con Edison administers NY State Clean Heat rebates across its five-borough NYC service territory and the lower Westchester region. The program is funded through a utility systems benefits charge, not federal IRA dollars, so it operates independently from the HEEHRA rollout and has been stable and well-funded since 2020.

Payment is delivered as a point-of-sale discount through a participating contractor — the rebate is already deducted from the invoice you sign. Typical per-ton values run $1,500 for standard air-source equipment and up to $4,800 for qualifying cold-climate, whole-home conversions that include decommissioning the old fossil-fuel heating system.

Clean Heat rebate levels are set annually by the New York Public Service Commission and can change mid-year if uptake runs ahead of budget. Con Edison publishes the current tier sheet on its residential heat pump page, and participating contractors are required to quote the current amount on every bid.

Con Edison rebate programs

  • NY State Clean Heat (Air-Source Heat Pump)Per-ton point-of-sale rebate scaled by equipment efficiency tier and whole-home vs partial conversion. Standard tier runs roughly $1,500 per ton; cold-climate whole-home tier runs up to $4,800 per ton. Requires a Con Edison participating contractor and AHRI-certified equipment meeting NEEP Cold Climate ASHP specifications.
  • NY State Clean Heat (Ground-Source Heat Pump)Geothermal installations receive a higher per-ton rebate reflecting drilling and loop costs — typically $2,000 to $4,500 per ton (verify on utility site). Ground-source installs in Con Edison territory are rare due to NYC site constraints but qualify when site conditions allow.
  • Heat Pump Water Heater RebateA separate flat rebate (commonly around $700 to $1,000 per unit, verify on utility site) for qualifying ENERGY STAR heat pump water heaters installed by a participating contractor. Stacks with HEEHRA water-heater cap for income-qualified homes.

Stacking with HEEHRA and federal credits

Clean Heat is a utility-funded program and stacks cleanly with federal HEEHRA under DOE guidance. Income-qualified NYC households (under 150% Area Median Income) can combine Con Edison's per-ton rebate with HEEHRA's up-to-$8,000 heat pump ceiling. See the HEEHRA guide for income bands and point-of-sale mechanics.

Manufacturer rebates from Mitsubishi, Daikin, Fujitsu, and LG stack on top of both Clean Heat and HEEHRA. The typical application order is manufacturer first (at quote), Clean Heat second (applied by Con Edison contractor at invoice), HEEHRA third (applied by same contractor before final invoice is printed). The rebate stacking guide walks through the exact sequence.

Application tips

Start by confirming your contractor appears on the Con Edison Clean Heat participating contractor list — non-participating contractors cannot file Clean Heat rebates retroactively, and you will pay full sticker price if you sign with an unlisted installer. The list is searchable by ZIP code on the Con Edison residential heat pump portal.

Request a written quote that itemizes the Clean Heat rebate, HEEHRA amount (if income-qualified), and manufacturer rebate separately. This transparency is required by PSC rules and protects you if the contractor later tries to adjust the stack. Keep the itemized quote until the install is complete and the final invoice is signed.

For buildings covered by Local Law 97, confirm your heat pump install meets the LL97 carbon-intensity compliance pathway before you sign. Multifamily Co-ops and condos have separate Clean Heat tiers and compliance documentation — the residential tier applies only to 1-4 unit properties.

Con Edison rebates — frequently asked

Yes. Ductless mini-split systems qualify at the same per-ton rate as ducted systems provided they meet AHRI cold-climate specifications. Whole-home mini-split conversions that retire the fossil-fuel boiler qualify for the highest tier.
Yes for the whole-home top tier. Con Edison's highest per-ton rebate requires decommissioning the primary fossil-fuel heating system — the contractor documents the removal at install. Partial conversions (heat pump plus retained gas boiler) qualify at a lower tier.
No. Clean Heat rebates are paid to the property owner, and the application must be filed by the owner or an authorized agent. Renters cannot independently apply, though owners of rental properties can.
Because Clean Heat is point-of-sale through a participating contractor, there is no homeowner-facing payment — the rebate is deducted from the invoice before you pay. Contractor reimbursement from Con Edison typically takes 30-45 days, but that doesn't affect your out-of-pocket cost.
Yes through at least 2030. The PSC extended Clean Heat funding as part of the New York Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA) compliance pathway. Annual tier levels can adjust but the program itself is stable.
