What is it?
Tampa Electric's Heating and Cooling program allows you to earn rebates for replacing your old, inefficient air conditioning system with a new, energy-efficient heat pump that meets our energy-saving standards. This program is available to all residential customers.
How does it work?
- When you replace an existing electric resistance, natural gas or oil heating system with a high-efficiency heat pump, you may qualify for a $275 rebate.
- When you replace an existing heat pump with a high-efficiency heat pump, you may qualify for a $125 rebate.
Do any restrictions apply?
-
A minimum Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating (SEER) of 14 is required to participate.
-
The maximum supplemental strip heating shall not exceed two (2) kilowatts (kW) per nominal ton.
-
On a system less than 2.5 tons, a five kW heat strip is acceptable.
How do I get a Heating and Cooling Rebate?
When replacing an air conditioning system, talk to your contractor about installing a qualifying unit.
To qualify for a Heating & Cooling rebate, Tampa Electric requires that you use a licensed HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) contractor who is registered and has obtained a 6-digit vendor number from Tampa Electric prior to installing equipment.
